Designed by renowned artist Bill Tull, this authentic adobe home features handmade bricks and hand-sculpted rooms, offering a rare and culturally significant living experience within the Boulders Resort.
Situated on the 17th green of the Boulders South Course, the property boasts exceptional south-facing mountain, fairway, and sunset views from a wrap-around patio.
While the original structure is authentic adobe, a later expansion utilized standard block construction, which may impact the uniform aesthetic and thermal efficiency of the home.
