The home showcases hand-carved doors and corbels, planked and beamed ceilings, and cement tile floors, all contributing to its rustic, artistic charm.
A wood-burning fireplace and wood-burning stove provide cozy focal points, while an Arizona Room equipped with a mini-split system offers comfortable year-round living space. The residence includes two bedrooms and two bathrooms, balancing its artistic features with livable comfort.
Set on 1.59 acres of horse property, the home combines artistic heritage with a sense of open space and connection to the desert landscape. The Lea Char House is not just a dwelling it's a piece of Southwestern art and history, embodying the creativity and craftsmanship of its designer.
