HISTORIC TAOS FARMHOUSE. This classic territorial style adobe home is over 100 years old, and has been beautifully renovated. Full of character but very tastefully updated with modern conveniences and numerous thoughtful, fine features. The complete makeover was completed in 2008 by Cadillac Builders, one of Taos's best. Double-thick real adobe walls keep it cool in summer and warm in winter. The kitchen and the space above it on the second floor are new. The kitchen has in-floor radiant heat, fine cabinetry by master carpenter Steve Ninneman (who also did the staircase drawers, stair railing, and cabinets in the primary bathroom) porcelain tile countertops, Bertazzoni professional range, and a Dutch door that opens to the back yard. The side entrance to the home leads into a mudroom and pantry, and then to the kitchen. Many interior walls are exquisite traditional mud/straw plaster. Oak and heart pine hardwood floors throughout most of the home. The large primary suite upstairs includes a luxurious bathroom with lots of natural light, deep soaking tub, large walk-in shower, double vanities, a European style "WC" and travertine tile. A walk-in closet is partially cedar lined, and has a closet system with ample pull-out drawers. Also upstairs is another large multi-purpose space which could be a den or studio or exercise/yoga room; or part of it could be converted to another bedroom. The home sits atop the gently-sloping two acres, and faces south toward the Arroyo Hondo Valley. Community water, a well and surface water rights on the Plaza Ditch provide plenty of water. The land has produced 45 bales of hay in years past. There are seven apple trees. The acreage is fully-fenced, and could be a good horse property. The 2-car garage has an attached tack room, and tool and tractor storage. This authentic farmhouse is located in a quiet setting, just 20 minutes (15 miles) north of downtown Taos. Easy access to Taos Ski Valley, too, via the Hondo-Seco Road. Call for an appointment to see this outstanding property!
