What makes your home a Green or Healthy Home?
This home is green because it is powered with 8 solar panels , a bank of 16 batteries, wind turbine and a back up propane generator.
All appliances are energy savers.Property Description
This home was completely remodeled in 2005. Good materials and workmanship make this a beautiful home.
The floor covering is 16" tiles except in two bedrooms there is bamboo flooring.
The kitchen has energy star appliances,re-used custom cabinets, and concrete counter tops.
Each and every room has something special. This house is loaded with windows,low-e and double pane. There is an A frame section that has a bank of windows 30 ft. tall. These windows look over an ever changing high desert vista. The views off the 2nd story deck in the back,looking to the East, provide yet another glorious view of a limestone mountain range.
All three bathrooms have nice tile work and low flow flushing and shower heads.
It is quite beautiful yet not over the top.
There is also a steel out building
that could be barn or shop. This is about 20x40.

The house sits 5 miles out of Bisbee, a quaint mining town turned tourist destination. There is a plethora of special events and yet maintains an easy going small town life.
It is high desert and the house sits at about 4700' and the town of Bisbee sits higher at about 5300'. There are seasons and it snows a couple of times a year. In the late summer and Fall is when the rains come, Monsoons, and it pours! Everything greens up and it is called "second spring".
