This adobe sanctuary forged by hand and earth is a testament to the power of nature and the artistry of life. Bursting with natural light this Taos treasure built in the old style to capture the warmth and magic of the original adobe dwellings. Meticulously finished there is nothing like it on the market. Surrounded by alluring views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and skies that seem to go on forever. This hacienda truly tells a story. Traditional finishes include double thick adobe walls built by hand from the soil of the surrounding land. Selected interior walls have been lime-washed using time honored original techniques. Other walls are straw-infused, nichos, hand hewn vigas, aspen and cedar and exquisite sealed earthen floors that are both enduring and eco friendly. Each room has a kiva southwest style fireplace, and hand-carved doors. Diamond finished hand plaster accents the bathrooms with stone carved vessel sinks. This time-honored style is accented with modern upgrades including a contemporary kitchen, Hubbardton Forge lighting fixtures and custom Elfa closet shelving in the walk in cedar lined closets throughout. The gracious floor plan features the primary suite on the north end of the house that also features a secluded study. On the south side of the home there are two additional bedrooms separated by a large living area. The spacious kitchen opens to a living area with a beautiful view of Taos Mountain. Delightful outdoor areas perfect for relaxation or socializing include a cover pergola, sail shades and pondless water feature. In addition there is a stunning separate casita and/or artist studio with plenty of light,10 ft ceilings and a wood burning stove. This fully equipped one bedroom casita with bath/shower, kitchen, induction range and laundry has been an active licensed part time rental. Located near Taos Country Club, UNM Taos and hiking trails. Just 20 minutes to Town of Taos, 40 minutes to Taos Ski Valley, 60 minutes to Santa Fe.
