A Lush Paradise on Blueberry Hill ~ This tree covered property in the high-desert of Northern New Mexico is a rare rare find. The 3 bedrooms, 3 bathroom Southwestern architectural style home is the perfect place for full-time living, or occasional Taos retreats. The large yard surrounding the home is ideal for pets to run freely, the children to play safely, or space for potential expansion and even a second dwelling to maximize investment potential. The home itself consists of several tasteful and traditional finishes including solid beams with herringbone 2x10 boards on the ceilings, Saltillo tile floors, arched doorways, and the list goes on. The split layout offers a great deal of privacy, and the converted heated bonus room offers additional space to be utilized as a workout room, artists studio, or perhaps a second living space. Upon stepping outside the home into the lush backyard you are mesmerized by the tranquil sound of flowing water from the fountains in the presence of a variety of fruit trees (cherry, plum, apricot, apples, pears, and peaches) as well as numerous mature shade trees. Just outside of the immediate backyard perimeter you will find a gathering space with a firepit and breathtaking views of Taos Mountain. Conveniently located and an easy outlet to Taos Ski Valley, the Town of Taos, and Rio Grand National monument. Jump on this place fast, it won’t last long!
