Description
This remarkable adobe home, nestled in Taos's historic district, offers a rare glimpse into the town's rich artistic past, having once served as the residence and gallery of Taos Modernists painters Beatrice Mandelman and Louis Ribak. Originally constructed in 1880, the property underwent a thoughtful remodel in 2006, seamlessly blending its historic charm with modern amenities. Entering this 3280 sq ft property, you will feel the exceptional detail of craftsmanship and mindfulness for those seeking a truly distinctive property. The home features an extraordinary two bedroom/two bath main residence and a separate well-appointed one-bedroom/one bath apartment/studio all under one roof. Stepping into the heart of the home, there is a cozy parlor/dining area with a southwestern fireplace, and deep set windows. Thick walls and wood floors are found throughout the house. Prepare to be enchanted by the adjoining whimsically designed kitchen, featuring a Viking stove and lively, painted cabinetry and ample storage. It's a space designed to spark joy and inspire your inner chef. Adjoining the parlor area is the large living room designed for both artistic inspiration and grand gatherings, and with a rich history of Taos lore. A guest bath is perfect and adds to its versatility. Upstairs, the primary suite is a sanctuary of comfort and privacy. The landing, lined with built-in cabinets, leads to a generously proportioned bedroom and oversized bath and attached closet. A cozy sitting area offers ample space for relaxation. French doors invite you to step out onto the front balcony or the rear Juliet balcony, each offering a unique perspective of the Taos landscape. The apartment/studio/guestroom offers a large living area, an upscale kitchen, and a southwestern fireplace. Access to a private, stone-terraced back courtyard, is perfect for relaxation and contemplation. Authentic New Mexican features abound, including vigas and lattilas ceilings, four southwestern fireplaces, natural mud plaster walls and nichos, and a mix of flagstone, reclaimed wood, and Saltillo tile flooring. Hand-painted beams and carved corbels add unique details. Other amenities include radiant floor heating, double-paned windows, and custom screen doors. The property includes a gated front courtyard, w/ spruce and fruit trees, a fruit tree orchard (pear, apple, apricot), and a private walled backyard with rock landscaping. Sustainable features include two cisterns for water collection, a gardening sprinkler system, an air exchanger in the laundry room, and solar panels with a natural gas backup for up to 12 hrs. of hot water. This exceptional property offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Taos history, seamlessly blending historic charm with contemporary comfort.
