That bathroom features a glass enclosed tile walk-in shower and granite topped vanity. At the end of the day, sit back and overlook the valley from the covered front porch, listening to the variety of birds that love to nest in the numerous pinon pine trees on the property. Pinon Hills features paved county-maintained roads, large lots, and friendly neighbors.

Seller added an exterior heated studio/office in 2025, along with a Tuff Shed for storage.
