販売中の一戸建て住宅, 107 S Pinos Altos, Silver City, ニューメキシコ 88061, アメリカ合衆国

So many things to love when art and engineering unite! This distinctive papercrete home (“Casa de Papel”) in Historic Downtown Silver City, at the base of Chihuahua Hill and just seconds from downtown, features 12–15” thick energy-efficient walls, plaster finishes, large juniper beams, t&g viga ceilings, and hand-peeled juniper railings. Custom touches include concrete bathroom counters, Syzygy, Saltillo& ceramic tile, and solid wood doors. Outdoors, the owner added retaining walls, shade sails, apricot trees, desert plants, a gated trailer/vehicle area, and a whole-house water-filtration system. Two striking steel creations highlight the outside area: a brutalist ramada shade, a 750 gal rain recovery barrel, and a hand-made spiral staircase leading to a stone fire-pit circle. With city utilities, low bills, views of Silver City, and access beneath the house for storage to a solid foundation, this home blends sustainability, craftsmanship, and character. All appliances included.
