This modern, high desert compound is ideally located on a quarter-block just west of downtown Marfa. The corner lot is completely fenced and strategically landscaped for privacy, allowing the prime location to feel private even though it is walking distance to shops, galleries and restaurants.

The chicly renovated buildings offer a true Marfa aesthetic. The main home has 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths, 2 living rooms, and 2 dining areas. Just west of the main home is a detached studio with a separate casita beyond, for a total of three freestanding buildings on the property.

At the core of the main home, the kitchen features concrete countertops, white lower cabinets and warm wood shelving that are complimented by sleek stainless appliances and a terracotta backsplash. The refined formal living area is lit by a tumbleweed chandelier and is next to the custom, built-in dining nook. The adjacent ~650 square foot sunroom* has an expansive dining area that enjoys diffused lighting throughout the day from the south-facing wall of glass. At the west end, there is a wood burning fireplace and the second living area. The primary suite has a raw plaster feature wall, two walk-in closets, a luxurious marble bathroom with soaking tub and shower, as well as a walled patio with a chiminea, outdoor soaking tub and shower. On the opposite side of the home, there is an elegant guest bedroom and black marble bath with shower and mirrored walls. To the south of the sunroom there is a private courtyard with concrete planters and a fire pit that connects to the outdoor shower and soaking tub area. The main home has both a central and a mini-split HVAC system.

The entrance to the detached studio, currently used as an office, is just a few steps from the sunroom and features raw brick walls, exposed rafters, a built-in desk, and two closets. The studio has a mini-split hvac system.

The casita is on the property's southwest corner and has its own gated access. At 432 square feet, it feels open and welcoming, with a custom concrete kitchen and full bath and wood ceiling. There is a beautiful built-in concrete platform to hold a kingsize bed and two built-in concrete side tables. Three walls have substantial glass doors and windows for light with the east wall completely solid to maintain privacy from the main home and studio. The casita's mini-split system keeps its comfortable year round.

The lot is just under 1/3 of an acre, and has been xeriscaped throughout, for low water usage and easy maintenance. There are gardens on the southwest portion of the lot that have been designed for year round use, but are constructed from wood and could be modified or removed.
