Tucked within a gated courtyard of the La Buena Vida condominium community, Cottonwood #4 offers classic Taos character in an exceptionally convenient location just moments from the historic Taos Plaza and Kit Carson Park. This thoughtfully maintained one-bedroom, one-bath residence offers approximately 544 square feet of comfortable living, filled with natural light and authentic Southwest details. High ceilings with hand-hewn vigas, a traditional kiva fireplace, and pueblo-style architectural elements create a warm sense of place that feels distinctly Taos. The efficient floor plan makes excellent use of the space, with an open living area, a well-appointed kitchen, and a comfortable bedroom with generous storage. Lovingly cared for by the current owner, the home is move-in ready while retaining the charm and character that define the community. La Buena Vida is known for its lush, well-tended grounds and mature shade trees, creating a peaceful setting behind its secure courtyard entrance. From here, some of Taos’ favorite restaurants, coffee shops, galleries, and local events are just a short stroll away. Whether as a full-time residence, weekend retreat, or long-term investment, Cottonwood #4 offers an inviting opportunity to enjoy life in the heart of Taos.
