    What's special

    You may have already seen this beautiful yard and garage ....... you just didn't know it could be yours!Welcome to 228 Appaloosa, a truly one-of-a-kind .53-acre Los Lunas property offering over 2,000 sq. ft. of living space, plus an additional 480-sq.-ft. oversized heated and cooled 2-car garage, established gardens, fruit trees, animal areas, abundant storage and an outdoor setting with a story unlike any other.Since 2022, this property has served as the home and primary filming location for the popular MR HILLBILLY YouTube channel, which has accumulated more than 42 MILLION channel views, with individual videos reaching as many as 4.5 MILLION views. The property's gardens, ducks, wildlife and yard have provided the setting for videos including the channel's 100-day duck-raising project and its newest backyard wildlife series.Inside, you'll find 3 bedrooms plus a smaller bonus/flex room, giving you options for an office, hobby room or additional sleeping space. The enormous approximately 25' x 12' primary bedroom includes a custom 3/4 bath, while a full guest bathroom serves the remainder of the home.The open floor plan connects the dining area, kitchen and huge living room, where a wood-burning fireplace creates a warm centerpiece. The kitchen features granite countertops, TWO sinks, a dedicated coffee bar, pantry cabinetry and plenty of workspace. A separate laundry/storage and a full pantry room adds even more usable space.And there's even a room for the dogs! A dedicated pet room between the living room and garage lets four-legged family members stay comfortably indoors with their own space--close to everyone without necessarily claiming the couch.Step outside and you'll understand why this yard became a filming location. 10 fruit trees, shade trees, a lush raised garden bed, large chicken coop and newly built duck enclosure with a flowing-water duck pond create an established backyard-homestead environment.There's even a 27-year-old tortoise who roams the property--so please remember to CLOSE THE FRONT GRASS GATE!Need room for projects, equipment or hobbies? In addition to the 480-sq.-ft. insulated, heated and cooled oversized 2-car drive-through garage, there's a 16' x 12' Tuff Shed, a newly installed approximately 19' x 11' equipment shed and an impressive approximately 60' x 22' concrete pad.Major improvements include vinyl thermal windows installed approximately six years ago, newer stucco and a newer roof that the seller reports has approximately four years remaining on its warranty. The property is connected to city water and city sewer.Garden. Gather. Create. Grow fruit and vegetables, raise chickens and or ducks, collect and eat healthy eggs, work on projects., make your own videos, sit by the fire, or simply enjoy having more than half an acre to call your own.228 Appaloosa isn't a cookie-cutter property and that's exactly the point. It's over 2,000 sq. ft. of living space on .53 acre, with a remarkable garage, storage areas, garden and animal amenities, plus a yard that has already entertained millions.The cameras have captured its story, now it's ready to be yours.PLEASE CLOSE THE FRONT GRASS GATE DURING ALL SHOWINGS--RESIDENT TORTOISE!
