Quail Brush Court

The Organ Mountains serve as a perfect backdrop to Soledad Canyon Earth Builder’s latest creation.  This 2, 727 sq. ft. rammed earth home sits on the eastern side of Las Cruces, New Mexico.  We have affectionately nicknamed this home “Casa de Tierra 2010?.  It is a three bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home with an open floor plan.  A kiva fireplace graces the great room—it is finished with a venetian plaster.  The electricity for this home is produced by Photovoltaic Panels on the roof.  Enjoy the visit to the Barker’s New Mexico Home!
