TAOS TRUE- It’s the real thing. The one-story main home of this property is a triple thick adobe with a 1,574 sq.ft. 2BR/2BA adobe home with flex space for library, office, or media room plus a self-contained 1BR/1BA casita upstairs. With parts rumored to be over 100yrs old, it was tastefully remodeled in 2007-8 to retain its old world feel yet updated for the conveniences of today. The thick, smooth, sensuous walls are adorned with hand troweled diamond finish plaster throughout and there are viga ceilings and wood plank floors through most of the house for that warm, welcoming Taos ambiance. The indoor spaces flow beyond their boundaries to the huge hacienda style portal which graces the front and entrance and provides places for dining al fresco, reading a book, or having a socially distanced happy hour with friends all in a serene natural setting. The living room boasts a delightful and efficient Jotul gas log stove and the adjoining flex room could be an extension of the living room for media, a library/office, or formal dining room. The kitchen is spacious and bright and large enough for a dining table and has granite countertops and stainless appliances. Out the kitchen is another portal and a fenced area for pets. Upstairs you’ll find the sweet, bright and light casita with full kitchen and bath, washer/dryer and one bedroom. Guests will enjoy the deck for star gazing or lazing. The yard has perennials and a dry creek bed and fountain that can be restored to provide a small oasis for your outdoor pleasure and there’s room for gardening. The property sits on a country road and has nat’l gas and community water and sewer. It also provides lots of options. Short term rentals, long term rentals, home/office, house and guesthouse, or home and studio. You choose.
