Perched on a breathtaking ridgetop in a highly sought-after area off Hondo Seco Road in Arroyo Hondo, this exceptional property captures sweeping, unobstructed views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and embodies the ultimate Taos lifestyle. Offering a combined total of 4,391 square feet of living space between the main residence and a detached casita, the property provides both scale and flexibility for refined living, guest accommodations, or creative use. Surrounded by natural beauty and privacy, yet just minutes from Taos Ski Valley, the Historic Taos Plaza, Taos Pueblo, and endless outdoor recreation, this is a rare opportunity in one of Northern New Mexico’s most coveted settings. The main residence features 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, blending authentic Southwestern character with comfortable, flexible living. Rich plaster walls, exposed wood beams, and a striking kiva fireplace create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Multiple living areas provide space to gather, unwind, and entertain, with seamless access to outdoor patios that enhance the indoor-outdoor flow. A standout feature is the dedicated entertainment lounge, designed for both relaxation and hosting. This inviting space features a custom bar, a lounge area, a fireplace, and space for recreation—ideal for game nights, movie nights, or casual entertaining. Adjacent to the game room is an additional flex space, perfectly suited for a home office, creative studio, fitness area, or overflow guest accommodations, along with a nearby guest bathroom for added convenience. The expansive second-story retreat is flooded with natural light and framed by panoramic mountain views. Currently used as a creative studio and lounge, this inspiring space offers incredible versatility—ideal for an art studio, yoga space, or additional guest quarters. The detached casita is equally compelling—full of charm, privacy, and its own unforgettable views. With a strong short-term rental history, it presents an excellent income-producing opportunity or a perfect guest retreat. Outdoor living is where this property truly shines. Expansive brick patios wrap around the home, offering multiple seating and entertaining areas designed to capture sunrise, sunset, and everything in between. Enjoy evenings under the stars in the private hot tub, gather around the outdoor kiva fireplace, or dine al fresco while taking in the sweeping high-desert landscape.
