Description

IF YOU HAVE A PASSION FOR THE PAST – You’ll love this thoughtfully restored 2,391 sq. ft 2BR,2BA adobe ca. 1795 with office, den, library and wine cellar nestled in historic La Loma Plaza. La Loma Plaza was constructed by Spanish settlers on a hill just west of central Taos Plaza and designed as a fortified settlement with contiguous, shared adobe walls to protect residents from plains Indian raids. Maintaining much of its original feel, the past is always present here. You’ll appreciate the serenity and security that that the adobe walls around this home provide and how they complement the picturesque setting. As you enter the home, you’ll see all the classic Taos features – ceilings of vigas, hand troweled plaster walls, nichos, bancos, fireplaces, plus floors of brick and wood. Thick adobe walls lend a feeling of permanence. The living room can host a grand piano and the generous dining room will give any gathering a heightened sense of occasion. Salud Amor Pesetas Para Disfrutarlo (Health, Love, Money & Time to Enjoy Them) welcomes you to the fully equipped kitchen boasting names like Viking and Sub-Zero, along with custom cabinets and stone countertops. Out the back door you’ll find places to restore and relax, host and entertain, or simply lounge with a good book in the afternoon sun. Peek around a wall and see the protected garden area. Established landscaping is a plus. Back inside, you’ll note that use of rooms is flexible. The den/TV room is cozy as is the library. The library includes a murphy bed for extra guests or use as an office. A room off the primary bedroom could be used as an office or library/sitting room. Oh the choices! The unique, hidden wine cellar is a bonus and reminds us again of days gone by when it was rumored that underground tunnels provided sanctuary and sometimes escape in the Wild West. These adobe gems are getting rarer and rarer. Oh, and park your car! The location is ideal for easy access to galleries, restaurants, museums, and shopping however, hiking, biking, skiing, golfing, fishing and rafting are all short drives away.
