$395,000

Dappled afternoon sunlight in early Spring, a beautiful feature of this verdant site.

At the end of this walkway, to the left (and out of view here) is the stairwell down to Santa Rita. To the immediate left is the front Patio.

The Santa Rita stairway is behind and below the photographer, who is standing in the front (entrance) Patio.

Looking down from the front patio, there is a lovely gate at the bottom of these stairs that opens onto Santa Rita. Walk to everything; you're in the heart of the village!

A very photogenic property, nearly everywhere one looks.

To the left, out of view, is the front door.

Absolutely charming. The walk up to the Studio & other Garden areas is gentle, and easily managed. It's also a special treat!

Front (purple) door @ left; screened Patio Door @ far right.

Beautiful village views from this private perch, given the home's very special setting ...up the rock stairs from Santa Rita Avenue.

Wonderful wood floors. They're 3/4" maple hardwood over 1/2" plywood decking. The maple was re-purposed from the school basketball court ...some years ago!

In between the Living Room & the Library/Den, this room is on the North side of the home. It has variably been used as a Bedroom or Office...

Thick adobe walls & arched doorways c.1920.

There's a north-facing window to the left, out of view here. Through the arched doorway is the NE corner Bedroom.

Notice the fabulous maple hardwood (re-purposed) gymnasium floor...

This Bedroom enjoys direct access to the adjacent screened Patio. Views from it are to the North, across the Village & w/Mt. Wrightson beyond.

Doors from the Living Room & the NE Bedroom open directly on to this screened Porch. Ideal for entertaining, sleeping, relaxing... Fabulous views & privacy.

Looking to the South toward the rear Patio (at the end of the walk (out of view). Window @ right is the Front, NE Bedroom.

The door @ left opens onto the North-facing front (screened) Porch. Photo just before is the (East facing) walkway outside this room

Lovely details wherever one looks, no matter the time of day!

It's all charming & makes perfect sense when you're there!

To the left, out of view, is the Hall-Closet. Solid door @ right is to the Bathroom. Center (glass) doorway opens to the rear (southern) garden Patio.

Farthest distance is to the East-side Patio. Purple door is to the 1/2 Bathroom behind which is the Laundry Room-Closet.

Master Bedroom, early evening light. Bathroom @ right, through the white door.

To the right, out of view, is a glass-block walk-in Shower. This room has 2 doors, 1 to the Master, the other to the Kitchen.

At far left, barely in view, is the doorway to the Bathroom. Notice the 'pop-up' mahogany 'counter extension'. This is a 'St. Charles'-type vintage Kitchen w/original counters. The other counters are wood chopping-block variety.

Relaxing, very private rear Patio with direct access from the Master Bedroom or the Kitchen.

A dream property for bird & nature lovers. Remember~ it's in the heart of Patagonia, walkable to EVERYTHING!

Re-purposed gonzo-sized satellite dish, used to full advantage as a Gazebo cover. Gazebo is near the upper Studio & Duck House.

A freestanding building at the top (or southern) end of the property. Wood stove; partial earthen floor & unending ambiance.

At the far end, out of view here, is the attached Upper Studio. Behind the photographer is the rear of the property, which opens onto a private (dead ended) alleyway.

Upon entering the property from Santa Rita, after going up the stone stairs, this is your first view of the Cottage!
