Description

Hand-Carved Adobe Fortress in the Heart of Taos ~ In the very heart of Taos, New Mexico, you will find a residence with a home that is a true piece of art. Inside, almost everything has been meticulously hand-carved by the artist-owner. Constructed with solid, thick adobe walls that act as a private, peaceful fortress, this home naturally stays cool during the warm summer months and wonderfully retains its heat through the winter. Upon entering the kitchen, you are greeted by awe-inspiring, Spanish-colonial inspired carved cabinets stretching from floor to ceiling around the center island, and a special theme that continues through the home, along with creative storage throughout. Traditional, tough hardwood floors flow seamlessly into the dining room, which features the first of two cozy kiva fireplaces under ceilings adorned with tasteful Taos turquoise vigas and planks. The inviting living room boasts the home's second fireplace, creating the ultimate gathering space for family year-round and especially during the holidays. Each of the 4 spacious bedrooms offers a comfortable retreat, but the enormous primary suite is a true standout, with a convenient in-room laundry with willow-etched doors, big closets, and direct egress to the yard. Throughout the home, you will discover custom hand-carved doors and special touches like clever hidden bathroom vanity doors and gorgeous handmade built-in cabinets beside a classic clawfoot tub. Outside, the yard invites you to relax among budding fruit trees and charming walking paths, all centered around a traditional horno for authentic outdoor baking. Conveniently located off Gusdorf Road near the historic Taos Plaza, the unbeatable proximity makes this an ideal residence if you work in town, and it is especially perfect for teachers at one of the excellent nearby schools. Whether you are looking for a highly accessible part-time Land of Enchantment getaway or the perfect starter home ready for you to add your own finishing exterior touches, this adobe gem places you minutes from world-class skiing at Taos Ski Valley, vibrant local art galleries, and breathtaking Rio Grande river adventures. This home is priced well, and ready for you to make it your very own!
