Description

At the very highest point of Marfa sits 1104 North Alamito Street, a celebration of contemporary architecture that perfectly embodies the city surrounding it. The main house, designed by Cameron Armstrong Architects and expertly constructed of Hebel block and structural steel, creates a unique experience with the high desert. Sweeping views of the Haystacks and Puertacita Mountains stretch along the eastern skyline, with the home itself oriented to maximize the incomparable vistas. Comprising seven platted lots, the upper three host the luxurious main home, casita, and outbuildings, while the lower four slope down twenty feet to Hermosa Street and protect the jaw-dropping eastern views. Find your personal oasis in the northern end of the house, where the opulent primary suite will welcome rest and relaxation. A gorgeous guest suite awaits by the entry, while a detached casita is a home-away-from-home for guests, offering potential opportunity for rentals. The open interior is bathed in light from the massive eastern fenestrations. Entertain outdoors on the expansive covered patio, cuddled up by the outdoor fireplace as the sun rises over the mountain ranges or the stars sparkle in the coal-black Texas sky.

Location

The breathtaking Big Bend region in Far West Texas is at the junction of the Texas mountains and the Chihuahuan Desert. Surrounded by Texas high plains and the wide-open skies, Marfa has grown into a cultural and artistic mecca. Despite—or perhaps in celebration of—its remote location, Marfa welcomes thousands of visitors each year. Ballroom Marfa’s rotating contemporary exhibits promise a truly unique experience while the Marfa Open Arts Festival, a three-week-long, artist-run and curated immersive arts festival, offers something for everyone. Don’t miss the Chinati Foundation’s minimalist art museum, founded by Donald Judd, who first catapulted Marfa into popularity in 1971. Marfa has always held fast to its Texas roots, central to natural wonders and countless national parks like Big Bend National Park, the Guadalupe Mountains, and the Davis Mountains. Take in natural wonders day and night; hike in the morning, and bird watch or river raft in the afternoon. Experience the Marfa Lights and the McDonald observatory for some of the purest stargazing come nightfall. Let Marfa be the perfect home base for exploring one of the last American frontiers.
