This three-bedroom, two-bath, 1670-square-foot home is an ideal country home: contemporary, casual, comfortable, cozy, and quiet, with a private, rural feel and glorious mountain views--yet it's only five minutes from town.
Step inside an entryway, and directly across from the entrance are french doors that open onto the backyard and the expansive mountain views. The yard is landscaped. The flagstone patio in the front is enclosed by latilla fences. Established vegetable garden areas as well as railroad-tie planted areas also landscape the yard. This property comes with water rights, for irrigation, from the Acequia Madre del Rio Chiquito.
The living room and kitchen are on an open floorplan, perfect for entertaining or just enjoying a quiet evening in front of the fire. Just off the living room is the master suite. On the opposite end of the home are the two guest rooms, guest bath, and an office.
Throughout the home are stained concrete floors, warmed by radiant heat; natural wood tongue-and-groove ceilings; and lots of windows that take advantage of the superb views and let in light and passive solar gain. This home is bright and airy, yet solidly constructed of pumice, with thick walls that curve into the windows. The views extend to Taos Mountain and Wheeler Peak toward the north and the foothills toward the east. At night, one can watch the vast starscape in the sky and also watch the moon rise up over the hills to the east. During daylight, hawks and eagles soar in the ever-changing sky.
The property also includes a storage shed. |
