Description
The original part of this 5000-square-foot hacienda was built of adobe, the most durable of materials, nearly 100 years ago. From the beautifully patinated flagstone floors to the sturdy viga ceilings, this home wears its history well. No fixer-upper, the home has been well-maintained and offers all the modern conveniences.

In the original part of the home are a sitting room (complete with wet bar) and two bedrooms with gorgeous hardwood floors, and a full bath. In the kitchen, the den, and the sitting room are three of the home's five fireplaces; all three of these fireplaces are corner kiva-style. Off the kitchen is a covered brick patio.

In 1977, a spacious master suite was added. It has a fireplace with strong, clean lines; viga and shake ceilings; generous closet space; and a large master bath that includes a separate dressing room. In 1982, a formal living room was added. Vaulted ceilings, ample windows, carved beams, and a kiva fireplace of modified design are eye-catching focal points in this open, airy, cleanly designed room.

Throughout the home are special features: custom hand-carved doors and hand-painted cabinetry. There is a large indoor utility/laundry room for additional storage; a walk-in pantry opens off this room.

The home sits on 3.54 acres in beautiful rural Ranchos de Taos, less than 10 minutes from Taos Plaza. It has an extensive lawn and beautiful landscaping. Behind the home is an acequia; water rights will convey with the purchase.

Also on the grounds are a barn, a greenhouse, a storage shed, and a casita that could easily serve as an office or be converted into a full guesthouse. The greenhouse has running water; the casita, which is next to it, has electricity and gas heat. A bath and kitchen could easily be added.

A large fenced pasture is to the west of the home, and behind the pasture is a pleasant woodland. This is lush valley land, ideal for horses.
