Escape to your own piece of Northern New Mexico paradise! This beautifully maintained split-level premium log cabin in the peaceful Highland Estates subdivision of Tres Piedras offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern updates. Surrounded by stunning mountain views, wide-open spaces, and starry night skies, this property is ideal for those seeking privacy and outdoor adventure such as hiking, skiing, rafting and the Rio Grande Gorge. This cabin in the woods is located in the beautiful Tusas Mountains half an hour west of Taos, half an hour north of Ojo Caliente Mineral Hot Springs, and an hour and a half away from Santa Fe. Step inside to vaulted ceilings, warm wood accents, and multiple heating sources for cozy year-round comfort: wood stoves in the kitchen, living room, and expansive primary suite (converted from the original garage), wall heaters in the living room and primary, plus luxurious in-floor radiant heat in the main bathroom. The main level features an open kitchen with hardwood floors and brand-new stainless-steel refrigerator and range, an inviting living room, dining room (currently used as a home office) with authentic Saltillo tiles, a primary suite with cement floors and private wood stove, two guest bedrooms with cork flooring and ceiling fans, and the main bathroom. The fully finished basement adds versatile living space with tile floors throughout, an additional bedroom, 3/4 bathroom, and plenty of room for a family room, guest quarters, or recreation area. Enjoy outdoor living at its finest with two covered porches—one east-facing for morning coffee and one west-facing for spectacular sunsets. The 2-acre property is fully fenced with chain-link for privacy and security, and includes a storage shed, garden shed, and wood shed. Recent upgrades include all-new rain gutters, a new mudroom, a one year old on demand electric water heater, a French drain where water from graveled driveway drains off from and electric heating cables on the roof to effortlessly melt winter snow. Practical features abound: propane tank for gas heating/cooking, septic system, community water, reliable cell service and high-speed fiber optic internet already on the property. This turnkey mountain retreat is ready for you to move in and start living the serene Tres Piedras lifestyle.
