Property Description
This impressive, pounded-earth home in the Valdez mountains offers 360-degree mountain views that overlook Taos County and Taos Pueblo. Soak inside your hot tub and overlook the entire valley of Taos. Inside this perfectly curated masterpiece of adobe, pounded earth, and frame construction is the perfect blend of sustainability. Every detail was curated to blend sustainability, comfort, and tranquility. Emerge yourself into the wild and surround yourself with the fresh scents of aspens, juniper, and piñon trees. Imagine relaxing on your front patio with breathtaking views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. This home is not just a place to live; it is a luxurious mountain escape for the artist seeking the uniqueness of a home with a story. Built by well-known builders Michael Reynolds and Peter Kolshorn, the home sits on 6.87 acres of forest land. Every part of this home is a piece of art. From the hand-carved wooden doors made on-site to the detailed metalwork and stained-glass window inserts, every detail has its own story. The metalwork includes the patio gates, metal trim on the stucco wall, whimsical chimney caps, all five fireplace screens, hand-hammered leaves above the windows, and a unique dragonfly chandelier in the living room. All these beautiful pieces were designed for this property and crafted by artist Christina Sporrong, who is known for her ability to create stunning metal art. She is well known for her work at Meow Wolf in Santa Fe, New Mexico. All the copper work in the home was hand-made by Marion Moore, a local artist who has received the Rising Star Award. Marion is known for her beautiful sconces. Each corner of this home shares a story or displays art from talented artists. Discover your peaceful oasis in this passively heated adobe home, featuring four spacious bedrooms and four well-designed bathrooms. Two vehicle carport and acreage to explore. If you're interested in generating income, the attached/lock-off studio has a full kitchen, bathroom, and private entrance. Want to go off-grid? Update the solar panels, and this home can support off-grid living. Three large 3,000-gallon water cisterns collect water for the hydroponics system and gray water system in the home. There is a 1,250-foot deep well and a well share agreement if you decide to connect to additional resources. You can grow fresh herbs or flowers with your very own hydroponic watering system. Enjoy the soothing sounds from the foyer fountain or relax by the lily pond and take in the flowers' beauty. Stay warm in winter with passive solar heating and five inviting fireplaces inside. You can also enjoy the outdoors with a patio fireplace and bar on the lower-level deck. The possibilities to entertain are endless. Host stargazing parties on the roof and make homemade pizza in your custom wood-burning pizza oven from Italy. This home has plenty of space for everyone. With two large living areas, it offers lots of room for family activities. An extra loft area can serve as a quiet study or guest sleeping space.
