This property is truly a remarkable blend of art, history, and functionality. The unique features–like the handcrafted timber structure, antiques from around the world, and the owner’s distinct art contributions–make it stand out as a living gallery. Nestled in a historic apple orchard, the combination of adobe and Victorian architecture, with carefully preserved historical elements like stained glass windows and teak doors, adds a rich texture to the home’s aesthetic. It’s amazing how the artist-owner integrated elements of the local Taos culture while also creating spaces full of comfort and modern amenities. The 1.6-acre property offers more than just a residence; it also presents potential for creative uses such as an art retreat, guest accommodation, with a pasture for horses, with irrigation rights intact. Being near the heart of Taos yet close to ski areas makes this property ideal for those who want both seclusion and accessibility to outdoor activities and the town’s vibrant art scene. The attention to detail in both design and material sourcing makes it a property that’s not only a place to live and create, but also a piece of living history and art. Truly a rare find!
