Private setting Big Sky Views Walk to a hidden River 2 Mini-Split AC
Mesa - In the middle of it all - 4 miles south of Blueberry Hill - 2 miles north of Taos Country Club (open to the public) 6 miles to Taos village, 18 miles to Taos Ski Valley
For the warm summer days when cracking the windows just aren't enough to let in the cool summer air in the evening, there are 2 Mini-Splits to provide air-conditioning (1 in the living room and the 2nd in the primary bedroom.) There is also a swamp cooler in the 2nd bedroom.
“A Hidden River House”, nestled with 4 neighboring homes on the open mesa, is a semi-secluded respite providing 365 degree mountain / mesa views. Each home is strategically situated, affording residents a total sense of quiet serenity and visual privacy.
Two very separate patios offer a varied choice of awe inspiring north or south mountain views. You will experience the rich southwest sun rise and sun set “light shows” so loved and made famous by world renowned artist Georgia O’Keefe.
The large central kitchen, fully equipped with upscale tableware and cookware, comes complete with dishwasher, oven/range, microwave, large fridge and an abundance of counter space. A breakfast bar for two adds dining space or computer work space. Walk out the sliding glass doors for “alfresco dining” on the north patio.
Enjoy 180 degree panoramic views from the light, bright and airy great room with three walls of windows and glass doors. A kiva fireplace adds traditional southwest charm and comes equipped with firewood for romantic fireside dining and cozy evenings of satellite flat screen TV enjoyment.
The two bedrooms are buffered by a full bathroom, creating a total sound barrier between them. The large king master bedroom, with sliding glass doors, walks out to the north patio and the queen guest bedroom is home to the ever important telescope. We promise, you will never forget the “starry starry nights” uninterrupted by city lights as viewed from A Hidden River House. Her dark skies are unparalleled!!
Located as central hub between the 4 major Taos attractions, daily travel is simplified in all directions. Taos Country Club (4 miles) and the newly declared Rio Grande del Norte National Monument (10 miles) are to the south. Taos Ski Valley (18 miles) head north and the quaint adobe village of Taos, New Mexico (6 miles).
If you are searching for quiet private serenity and a unique lodging experience, search no longer. A Hidden River House is waiting your arrival and assures you of lasting fond memories.
Please be advised during heavy snows a 4 wheel drive or all wheel drive, or optional chains are necessary.
