The largest of the custom kivas warms and lights this gorgeous living space. French doors lead out to a west-facing patio with sweeping views of the town and Taos mesa - perfect for enjoying a glass of wine or cup of tea at sunset. Traditional nichos adorn the hallway, reminiscent of Old World charm.

The master bath also features walnut countertops, custom cabinetry, and an oversized tub and shower.

Front-loading Whirlpool Duet washing machine, dryer in the laundry room with and ample storage in the utility closet and throughout the residence. This spectacular home has radiant heat throughout and is wired for a home audio system and security. There is also a solar back up in case of a power outage. There are several patio areas for outdoor entertaining and taking in the glorious sunsets. Casita de la Luz is a 460 sf "little house" with a full kitchen and bath, a claw foot tub, a wood stove, electric heat, Wi-Fi, and a private wooden deck with a small kiva fireplace. Casita de la Luz is a spiritual retreat with an excellent rental history. The oversized (25x30) two-car garage has built-in cabinets with ample storage, or a workshop. Enjoy the fabulous setting of this extraordinary home nestled amidst juniper and pinon at the base of the Sangre de Christo mountains, offering mountain, valley, and serene sky views.
