3004 Cottontail Rd, Taos, NM 87571

Nestled in the foothills of Taos Canyon, where the landscape opens to sweeping skies and the natural beauty of Northern New Mexico, this distinctive Southwestern home offers a rare combination of privacy, acreage, and convenience. Surrounded by native vegetation and the peaceful character of the countryside, the property feels wonderfully removed from it all, yet downtown Taos, with its galleries, restaurants, shopping, and historic plaza, is just minutes away. The home reflects the warmth and craftsmanship of traditional Northern New Mexico architecture, featuring exposed wooden vigas, rich wood ceilings, Saltillo-style tile floors, and inviting living spaces filled with rustic character. The striking red metal roof, recently replaced, complements the earth-toned stucco exterior, while the covered portal provides an inviting place to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy the quiet surroundings. The acreage offers room to make the land your own. With water rights and space for vegetable gardens, fruit trees, or thoughtfully designed outdoor living areas, the property presents wonderful possibilities for those who appreciate gardening, nature, and a little extra breathing room. Just beyond your doorstep, the foothills of Taos Canyon invite exploration, with nearby trails and access to the vast Carson National Forest offering opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, and enjoying the outdoors throughout the seasons. Whether you're seeking a full-time residence, a peaceful mountain getaway, or a property where you can cultivate your own garden retreat, this home offers the freedom of country living without sacrificing proximity to town. A special place to enjoy the land, embrace the outdoors, and experience the authentic charm of Taos.
