Find your place in a timeless landscape. This spacious Pueblo Revival home offers large windows with unmatched views, viga ceilings, kiva fireplaces, Saltillo tile floors, and Talavera tile sinks. The neighborhood’s large lots, coupled with the home’s thoughtful siting, provide privacy and protect its superb views of sky and mountain. Off the tiled foyer, you can relax in the master suite with its large bedroom, kiva fireplace, big picture window, walk-in closet, and bath with spa tub and double Talavera sinks. The suite includes a private enclosed flagstone patio, where you can enjoy the sunset over the western mountains. Indoors, the common areas flow with openness and light. A wide archway welcomes you to the great room, with its warm wood viga and latilla ceilings, kiva fireplace, and picture windows that frame the dramatic Southwestern landscape. A punched-tin chandelier hangs in the dining area, where French doors lead to a fenced yard with covered portico, patio, and beautiful aspen and fir trees. The dining room is separated from the open kitchen by a tiled bar for extra counter space or casual dining. The kitchen features tile counter tops, a side-by-side refrigerator with water and ice dispensers, a four-burner gas stove, dishwasher, and double sink with a restaurant faucet. Off the kitchen, a separate wing provides privacy for family or guests, with two bedrooms, skylights, and a full bath with Talavera tile sinks. Behind the kitchen are a separate laundry room and surprise bonus room. This large room with floor-to-ceiling windows provides a perfect place for a studio, office, media room, or library. A rear door leads to the backyard and an oversized two-car carport. Located in the Vista Linda neighborhood just south of Taos, near Taos Country Club and University of New Mexico’s Klauer campus, the house is a short, easy drive to the Town of Taos, up to Taos Ski Valley, or down to Santa Fe and Albuquerque. The wide-open spaces, gorgeous views, and timeless Southwest appeal make this a property worth seeing.
