Kingfisher – Modern inside, gorgeous outside

Get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and relax and refresh in this stunning one bedroom home in the ranching division of North Double Diamond. With breathtaking views in all directions, deciding if it’s more gorgeous inside or outside will be difficult.

Kingfisher is a custom-built Hebel block home featuring a king-sized bed and a comfortable sofa bed accommodating up to four people. Modern, clean lines in the home are vastly contrasted with the secluded rustic views of the Glass, Fort Davis, and Del Norte Mountains. A large wide deck with seating allows for astonishing scenery no matter the time of day or night. The pristine and fully-equipped kitchen with Corian counters is the perfect size to prepare your own meals or just refill your glass of wine. Kingfisher is a guest home located on the same property as the owner’s home; however, there are no sight lines between the homes. Guests will enjoy complete privacy during their entire stay.

Guests will have full access to the home, the outdoor deck, and the driveway up to Kingfisher.
A detached garage nearby will not be accessible to guests. The driveway continues past Kingfisher and becomes a private driveway to the owner’s home. We ask that guests do not go past the green PRIVATE DRIVE sign.

Kingfisher is located in the housing division of North Double Diamond, known for its large tracts of land, amazing views, and privacy. The home is approximately 7 miles south of Alpine on Highway 118.

1. Entrance key opens to right/closes left and has a security catch stop. So it may feel like it doesn’t open or lock unless jiggled.
2. Lights operate by touch on/touch off, hold for dimmer.
3. Please be aware that this is a rural home in the country. There is wildlife and native species all around. Please beware of snakes.
No smoking, no parties, no pets.
Please do not drive past the PRIVATE DRIVE sign.
Please do not set hot items or cut items on Corian countertops.
Please keep the sliding glass doors shut to keep out critters!

Beautiful views!
The home was lovely, just like the pictures, conveniently located to Alpine, Big Bend and Ft Davis. We enjoyed sitting outside on the deck. A stand out feature are the views from inside the living room and bedroom through the oversized windows.

The house is in a beautiful neighborhood about 15 minutes from Alpine. The house is spotless and well appointed. It was a wonderful place to enjoy the natural beauty of the area and yet close to town.

Very charming home away from it all but just 8 miles from Alpine. I loved this place and you can watch the sunrise from the bedroom windows. I will be back for a longer stay next time.

We booked this property as a convenient location to the race in Marathon, Texas. The home was beautiful, very modern with beautiful views of the countryside and stars at night. We enjoyed our time but found the house located much more convenient for our spur of the moment visit to Big Bend and Fort Davis. Hopefully the bedroom lighting will be fixed before other "older" guests visit. It was difficult for us not having any bedroom lighting other than the closet light. No other complaints and in fairness April did advise that the bedside lamp had recently been broken and would be replaced as soon as possible.

Amazing stay!
This place was beautiful. It was very clean and modern. The host communicated everything very well with us. The stars at night are a sight to see and a sunrise in the morning is a must. I highly recommend this property to anybody looking for a quiet getaway.

What a Sunrise
The property was amazing. The bed was the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in and the house was super comfortable. We loved our stay. The sunrise was beautiful so when you stay here, get up early so you can enjoy the colors. It changes quickly. We absolutely loved the property manager. Thanks April!
