7 Hummingbird Lane, Monticello, 87939

$249,000

7 Hummingbird Lane represents a beautiful piece of history. The original house was built in the 1890's and there was an addition in the 1980's. The 16-inch-thick adobe walls and 9-foot-tall ceilings with Spanish style vigas are original. The house also has vintage doors and hardware. Frederico Sedillo was the first homeowner who built the house according to his wife's instructions. Today, the home is 4 bedrooms/1.75 bathrooms with a modern kitchen. Still in place is a wood burning cookstove as well. There is a wood stove in the main room and a potbelly stove in the primary bedroom. The adobe barn is directly across the lane on 1.4 acres, space for a couple of horses or other livestock. Placita was a farming community where grapes and wine making were sources of income. Today, Monticello is known for its organic farms. Cattle still roam on open ranges. This home is perfect for a peaceful residence, a vacation getaway or short-term rental. Elephant Butte Lake & TorC are less than 25 miles away.
