Main Home (4 beds 2 baths) Taos magic is unveiled at the end of a private road on 6.5 sprawling acres, where a fully renovated, turn key residence is wrapped in unobstructed views of Taos Mountain. Bordered by protected horse land, the enchantment of this residence is enhanced by its enduring privacy. The 80-foot covered portal transports visitors from the wild surrounding landscape into remarkable interiors, where Southwestern character blends with modern refinement in the form of upgraded electrical, new hardware, and curated lighting throughout. Radiant heated saltillo tile floors, 18-inch traditional adobe walls, a corner kiva fireplace, and showstopping wood & beam ceilings work in harmony to craft a motif that is both time-honored and luxurious. An easy flow between each of these well-appointed spaces leads to a chef’s kitchen with KitchenAid and Bosch appliances, Aravalli stone countertops with a waterfall edge, a custom high-capacity vent hood, farmhouse sink, and brass hardware, all illuminated by Visual Comfort designer pendants. The bedrooms are a masterclass in Southwestern refinement, and the bathrooms are equally elevated with Carrera marble, Zellige tile, and custom finishes. Floor-to-ceiling, south-facing windows infuse the sunroom with cascades of natural light, setting the stage for mornings with a favorite book, and evenings tending to your own indoor garden. Behind the scenes, thoughtful upgrades include a new additional septic system, freshly painted trim, and smart Nest thermostats throughout that ensure both beauty and functionality. A two-story freestanding shed with a loft provides generous additional storage, while a covered two-car carport with fresh gravel ensures ease and convenience. Guest Home (1 bed 1 bath) Privately situated to capture the same sweeping views, the detached guest house offers a charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath retreat, or rental. With abundant natural light and a sense of quiet independence, it’s ideal for hosting guests or for extended stays. An open kitchen featuring vintage Chambers stove, adds to the guest home’s value. A 300 sqft expansive attached storage and workshop area adds versatility and potential for creative art space, gym, or functional use. Surrounded by sweeping meadows, red willow, and the striking silhouette of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the property offers a rare connection to both nature and heritage. With Taos Plaza, the Rio Grande, and Taos Ski Valley just minutes away, the location balances serenity with accessibility. Moments here are defined by shifting light across the mountains, the quiet movement of horses in the distance, and the timeless beauty of the high desert. It is an atmosphere that is both grounding and inspiring.
