Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 1996
Why the Owner Chose Taos
I built this house in 1996 with the help of some amazing craftsmen...There is really no way to describe this area of Taos. Its just the best real estate in Taos The forest and hiking is at your back door.The pines are tall and amazing.The place has an alpine feel with plenty of snow in the winter without being way up in the Taos Ski Valley. The views from the up stairs deck at 880 square feet are incredible...Well I could go on, but just ask any one about El Salto!
The Unique Benefits at this House
There is everything you need out the back door here... Fishing, Biking, Hiking all of it world class.. It is also one the most quiet healing stress reducing places I have ever lived in...Anyway feel free to give me a call and I would be happy to tell you more,Thanks again, Jamie
Owner's Map of Taos
Hi, Folks I've been in Taos for fifteen years and have been a fine wood worker who makes furniture and cabinets.I also have been a raft guide, a fly fishing guide and a guide for just about any outdoor sport you can imagine.I built this house in 1996,so you can imagine put a lot of heart and soul into it. Well there is so much more to say but I wont get carried away.
I just know that there is not a better place to stay in Taos than at Las Posadas in El Salto just ask anyone who's lived here for a while, this is paradise! Happy Vacationing, Jamie
