Builder George Lewton's plan for this minimalist contemporary residence was to have it blend into the land, be constructed of lasting, low maintenance products, and incorporate the views of the Sandia Mountains and the city while blending with the ambient beauty. Its lines are sophisticated in their simplicity. Lewton homes represent the highest standards of care and personal attention in residential construction. His attention to detail and innovative touches are unsurpassed. With the use of earth, stone, concrete, and glass, this home was built to last for generations. The exterior of raw sandstone replaces high maintenance stucco. High-ridged, seamed, non-reflective metal was used for the leak-proof roof that extends over the front entry, protecting it from the elements and creating an expansive front patio. Thousands of feet of covered patios were constructed to control the four seasons. 6300 sq. ft. are under roof. This residence blends into the natural environment, encompassing both city and Sandia Mountain views. The property is timeless, offers spectacular views, and is located in an area with clean air and relatively low property taxes. Wilderness trails and the tram to the ski area are practically in its backyard.
