WONDERFUL IN-TOWN HOME! This 3-bedroom/3.5 bath home offers something different. Creative architecture, unusual design details, Moroccan style, bold colors and many thoughtful touches make this 3, 343-square foot home special. Architect designed and custom built in 2007 by Cadillac Builders (John Havener). True adobe in the Pueblo style, with three bedrooms and three full baths downstairs, an upstairs suite, and an enclosed portal. Well-appointed kitchen with two sinks, Thermidor oven, warming drawer, two dishwashers, an extra large refrigerator plus a second frig, Jenn-Air down-draft cooktop, trash compactor. A large island makes a nice place to gather and/or eat. There is a walk-through pantry between the garage and the kitchen, with ample shelving. The kitchen opens to a stunning great room, with 18-foot high ceilings, a cupola with windows, beautiful patterned cork flooring, and a fireplace. This is a great space for entertaining. Connected to the great room is an enclosed portal, with large windows facing the back courtyard, and a fireplace. The primary bedroom features a fireplace, deluxe bathroom, large walk-in closet and luxurious wool carpeting. The second bedroom has a bathroom en suite, walk-in closet and wool carpeting. The third bedroom downstairs also has an en suite bath; it was used as a music studio, and could be an office. There is an elevator that connects this bedroom to the upstairs suite. The upstairs can also be accessed by an exterior flight of stairs, and would be ideal space for a home-based business, or a study, a den, exercise room or personal retreat. It includes a half-bath, small kitchenette, built-in desk with shelves, two built-in day beds, a small balcony open to the great room below, and a roof deck. The outside spaces are enclosed in high walls for privacy. Several gorgeous antique gates connect the different courtyards. An oversized garage has multiple storage closets, a work space and a sink. This fine home is located on a 0.35-acre lot with lots of trees on Spruce Lane, one of the prettiest streets in Taos, just a short walk to Taos Plaza, the Historic District, shopping, restaurants, galleries and Kit Carson Park. The home is on Town water and sewer; there is also a shared well which can be used for irrigating gardens and trees.
