Description

Are you ready to find a home that captures the unique spirit of Taos and offers beautiful, panoramic views of the Taos valley? This impressive Valdez property is your perfect retreat, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of nature. Inside, you will see a home that blends luxury and comfort, creating an inspiring living space. Surrounded by the fresh scents of aspens, juniper, and piñon trees, you can find peace and tranquility. Imagine relaxing on your front patio with breathtaking views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. This home is not just a place to live; it is a luxurious escape made for relaxation and entertaining. Built by well-known builders Michael Reynolds and Peter Kolshorn, this pounded-earth home sits on 6.87 acres of beautiful wooded land. Every part of this home is a piece of art. From the hand-carved wooden doors made on-site to the detailed metalwork and stained-glass window inserts, every detail has its own story. The metalwork includes the patio gates, metal trim on the stucco wall, whimsical chimney caps, all five fireplace screens, hand-hammered leaves above the windows, and a unique dragonfly chandelier in the living room. All these beautiful pieces were designed for this property and crafted by artist Christine Sporrong, who is known for her ability to create stunning metal art and has worked with Meow Wolf in Santa Fe, New Mexico. To make it even better, all the copper work in the home was hand-made by Marion Moore, a local artist who has received the Rising Star Award. Marion is known for her beautiful sconces. Each corner of this home shares a story or displays art from talented artists. Discover your peaceful oasis in this passively heated adobe home, featuring four spacious bedrooms and four well-designed bathrooms. If you're interested in generating income, the attached studio has a full kitchen, bathroom, and private entrance, making it a great space for guests or renters. This studio can also become a private retreat or in-law suite. Want to go off-grid? Update the solar panels, and this home can support off-grid living. There are four large 3,000-gallon water cisterns and a water aeration system, ensuring you have plenty of water year-round. If you prefer not to manage the cistern, a shared-well agreement allows easy access to a deep well of fresh mountain water. You can grow fresh herbs or flowers with your hydroponic watering system. Enjoy the soothing sounds from the foyer fountain or relax by the lily pond and take in the flowers' beauty. Stay warm in winter with passive solar heating and five inviting fireplaces inside. You can also enjoy the outdoors with a patio fireplace and bar on the lower-level deck overlooking the Valdez valley. Imagine standing on your private rooftop, enjoying stunning views of Taos County, where every sunset presents a beautiful backdrop for outdoor experiences.
