Modern Southwestern Home with Sweeping Mountain Views in Taos ~ Located just south of the Taos business district, this highly inviting 2021-built Southwestern gem feels like a private sanctuary the moment you arrive. The 1,458 square-foot layout opens into a bright, spacious living area anchored by striking 10-foot viga and tongue-and-groove ceilings. The original and sole owner carefully selected every finish to elevate the space, from the warm wood-style tile floors that flow throughout the open floor plan to the sleek quartz countertops and tasteful custom tiling in the three beautiful bathrooms. For a cozier atmosphere, the private quarters transition to comfortable 8.5-foot ceilings. Built for premium comfort and year-round efficiency, the house is fully equipped with radiant floor heating, a tankless water heater, air conditioning, and a Rheem water softening system. An enclosed flagstone veranda serves as a gorgeous extension of the living space, offering a perfect front-row seat to the best mountain views in the neighborhood. Outside, the fully fenced half-acre lot ensures total privacy and showcases a professionally designed, low-water xeriscape. This curated outdoor space requires minimal upkeep thanks to irrigated garden beds, natural stone borders, rustic wood and adobe-style fencing, and a naturalistic mix of mature evergreens. Complete with a heated two-car attached garage and ample space on the lot to build a custom ADU, this tranquil property covers all the practical bases. While the home itself is a quiet haven, you maintain quick, everyday access to local dining and galleries, putting world-class outdoor recreation right at your fingertips with the rugged trails of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and the slopes at Taos Ski Valley just minutes away. However, it’s unlikely you will want to leave the comfort of your home and vibrant blooming front yard, as this is paradise itself. Don’t let this special opportunity slip through the cracks.
