Classic Taos! An Old World Adobe with Guest Casita just five minutes east of Taos Plaza. Enter over the Acequia, behind the coyote fence, and step back in time where a park-like setting welcomes you. Once the home and dance studio of the famous flamenco dancer Maria Benitez, this property is only two miles from the Taos Plaza in the charming hamlet of Cañon. A two bedroom, two and a half bath home and an open floorplan guesthouse sit on a half-acre of lawn and garden with an enchanting canopy of old growth trees. The casita has a track record with Airbnb and you’ll know why once you enter it, with its original oak floors, rustic vigas, claw foot bathtub and a private porch. The main house has a kiva fireplace, coved ceilings and a contemporary kitchen. This quintessential retreat home is a space for artists of all disciplines. A classic and inviting property that embraces a rich history and character as unique as Taos itself. Call for all the wonderful details!
