Custom Home with Character, Privacy & Prime Socorro Location! Tucked behind its own walls on a large lot, this spacious 2,568 sq ft custom home blends authentic Southwestern character with the space and flexibility today's buyers are looking for, all just half a mile from the Socorro Plaza. Inside, the impressive atrium style family room immediately captures attention with soaring exposed beams and a custom gas log fireplace, a warm, welcoming space for everyday living and entertaining. A separate living area features a beautiful custom wood burning kiva fireplace, adding timeless New Mexico charm and giving everyone room to spread out. The open kitchen is as functional as it is inviting, with custom ash cabinetry, a dedicated work area, and an adjacent dining space perfect for casual meals and holiday gatherings alike. Hardwood and tile flooring flow throughout the entire home, no carpet anywhere. Storage abounds, with extensive space throughout the house, including large hanging closets flanked by shelf closets on both sides in the spacious bedrooms. New double-pane windows throughout the home add energy efficiency, quiet, and comfort. Year round enjoyment continues in the enclosed patio, where exposed vigas echo the home's character, opening to a fully cross fenced backyard ideal for pets, play, or gardening. Outside, the property is completely walled for privacy and security, with an automatic gate, a custom storage shed, and a 2 car carport. Refrigerated air units were replaced in 2023, offering efficient, worry-free cooling. Ideally located just 1/2 mile from Socorro Plaza and 1 mile from New Mexico Tech, with easy access to shopping, dining, campus, and downtown, this is a rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully designed custom home with space, storage, privacy, and true Southwestern character.
