Quality-built Adobe residence with detached studio and additional developable parcel totaling approximately 1.66 acres in the rural El Prado community of the greater Taos area. This property has outstanding mountain views and the beauty of sunsets on the Mesa. Built in 2000 with an emphasis on quality materials and traditional character, the 1 bedroom, 1 bath residence features authentic adobe construction, a quality metal roof, and single-zone radiant floor heating designed for efficient year-round comfort with a new pump installed approximately 4 years ago. Interior spaces carry an artistic feel and a loft-style bedroom that adds both function and architectural interest. The home is being offered minimally furnished, creating an easy transition for a new owner seeking a primary residence with potential for additional income producing structures or a private Northern New Mexico getaway. Additional assets of this property include a quality Rheem Water Heater installed approximately 4 years ago, updated Septic Lines from the house to the septic tank in 2025, Fenced yard area adjacent to the studio with an enclosed pull behind camper, utilized as a chicken coop space and the County-maintained Santistevan Road with regular grading schedule. The additional parcel offers future development potential for a guest house or expanded homesite, subject to county requirements and buyer verification. Additionally the 550 Square Foot Semi-Completed Studio space could be completed to a full studio rental property, or used in it's current state as an owner's workshop. Conveniently located near US Highway 64W, the property offers easy access to skiing, hiking, fishing, rafting, and the many outdoor and cultural experiences that define the greater Taos area.
