    Incredible One-of-a-Kind Residence & Guest Home on the San Cristobal Hillside ~ Let me introduce you to this private and perfectly situated property on 3.5 plus acres overlooking the lush San Cristobal Valley. This meticulously overbuilt, contemporary Southwestern style home offers a truly unparalleled living experience, surrounded by tranquil ponds and a picturesque canyon. The property is a haven for wildlife, with a neighboring water source attracting a variety of animals that can be observed from the expansive, three-quarter wrap-around deck. Step inside through hand-carved doors salvaged from the historic Our Lady of Guadalupe Church in downtown Taos from the 1800s. The interior blends traditional Southwestern touches like Saltillo tile and diamond-finish walls with elegant wood accents. The home’s efficient construction boasts a high R-value with 2-inch thick rigid fiberglass insulated walls and 20-inch blown-in ceiling insulation—keeping the space comfortable year-round. Passive solar windows and number one diesel wall heaters provide additional warmth, creating a perfectly inviting atmosphere. The antique wood stove in the kitchen is a great back-up, and can even be used for cooking like they did in the good ol' days. The true highlight of the homes is the ability to carry out true Indoor-Outdoor living, with multiple egress points leading to the grand deck and its awe-inspiring daily views. The primary ensuite, complete with a loft, walk-in closets, and high ceilings, offers a serene retreat. The residence is also ADA compliant, featuring an installed wheelchair lift. The lower level provides a second bedroom, a large living area, and two bonus rooms perfect for a gym, office, den, or perhaps a second separate living space. Back upstairs you will find a sunroom currently being used as an office, but certainly a place to house all your indoor greener.y The property also includes a detached studio space, currently utilized as a sewing room but easily adaptable as an art studio or guest casita equipped electric. A spacious storage room and a south-facing greenhouse for year-round gardening complete the grounds attached to the studio.This exceptional home is conveniently located on the north side of town, offering quick access to Taos Ski Valley, the Rio Grande River, and a variety of trails for hiking, biking, hunting, and fishing galore. Properties of this caliber are a rare find; don't miss the chance to make this extraordinary residence your own.
