Map & Owner's Profile
Deluxe 3 Bedroom Adobe - Near Taos Ski Valley & Taos Plaza
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Taos
Fell in love with the mountains, the people, our home and the climate. Also, #12 Los Altos is perfectly situated between the Mountains, Carson National Forrest, Taos Ski Valley and the Town Plaza. Easy in and out from either Albuqueque, NM and Denver, Co
The Unique Benefits at this House
Our home is situated on a half acre of land and the adjacent parcel is undeveloped and its unlikely it ever will be developed since our neighbors want to preserve the amazaing views of all around us. So effectively our home is situated on 1 acre, with 180 degrees views and the many mountain ranges which surround us. There are some who say #12 Los Altos has the best views of El Salto Mountain in the area - we certainly cannot say this is 100% accurate, but we can say our views from inside and outside our home are amazing!! Sit in our private hot tub and get swept away by the stars or the sunset...
Owner's Map of Taos
