About this property
Casa Grande In Downtown Taos
This newly remodeled three bedroom home has it all! Tiled kitchen with new appliances is well equipped and supplied for cooking at home. I always like to say if I don't have it, you won't need it! It also has a dishwasher. Nice for larger groups or longer stays. There is a separate dining room with mountain views. The living room is large-nicely furnished and comfortable. There is a fireplace and plenty of fragrant cedar firewood provided. There are three bedrooms. Front bedroom has a queen, middle bedroom is also a queen and the master bedroom has a king. Each bedroom has closet space and a dresser . I provide two cozy robes in each bedroom too for lazy mornings or comfy evenings. There are two tiled full baths with soaps, shampoo/conditioner and hair dryer provided.
This home was totally remodeled in early 2016. It was quite an undertaking! All walls and kitchen cabinets were painted a warm cream. All new operable screened windows and stained trim. Tongue and groove ceilings (I stained 1300 feet of tongue and groove. Whew!) New trim tile in the blue bathroom and completely new mango bathroom.
Then the fun part, the furnishing and decorating! I furnish with my antiques and treasures from local consignment stores and estate sales. All my bedding and towels are from my favorite Company Store catalogue so all bright colors and high quality. I love original Taos art so you will find it in every room. I have a penchant for whimsy and it's here and there. I am often asked about my decorating style- I call it "Melissiana". Actually my plumber said it best when he said, "Nothing you do makes any sense, but when you are done, it all works!"
This home is located on a quiet one block dead end street. The only sounds you hear are birds, wind chimes and the church bells from Our Lady of Guadalupe Church a block away. There is private on site parking. A walled courtyard with big trees, lilacs and plants offer outdoor living spaces for two and four legged guests. I was a professional landscaper in California before I moved to Taos and it is still my passion. In ground flowering plants as well as boxes decorated by me and big ceramic pots full of color are everywhere.
There are two outdoor living areas in front. To the left of the front gate there is a vintage glider and to the right a table and six comfortable chairs as well as a large charcoal BBQ grill. There is an additional outdoor living area off the master bedroom in the back.
As with all ten of my properties Casa Grande is pet friendly. I only ask for $10 per night per pet to be added when booking. I provide dog sheets to cover sofa and beds and ask guests to pick up after dog.
This home is actually part of a fourplex compound. I live in one of the little casitas so am always available to answer any questions. There are also two additional casitas that I rent for short term visits. Casa azul (Vrbo 797997) And Casa Verde (Vrbo 920144). Each have living/dining, tiled baths and queen bedrooms. Each also have private walled courtyards. Often guests rent the compound for large groups. I can sleep up to ten guests on this property..
There is a central laundry room available for all my guests and on site parking.
Casa Grande is located on a quiet, one block dead end street and is only three blocks from Taos Plaza.
This downtown compound was featured on the 2017 Taos Home & Garden Tour where on a Saturday in August 500 tour goers had a chance to check out my style. Too much fun!!!
If this home is booked for your dates please look at Vrbo 482097 another of my downtown homes which also offers three bedrooms and two baths. I offer guests who stay more than 30 days a generous 50% discount and a pet fee of $100 per pet per stay.

About the host
Hosted by Melissa /Taos mgr.
I moved to Taos 11 years ago from Marin County California where I was a professional landscaper and raised my three children as a single mom. When they were grown and gone I wanted to move to a more authentic area and chose Taos. I started buying homes and fixing them up and realized I loved doing. I started renting them on VRBO and love everything about it!
Why they chose this property
As they say Location, Location, Location! Three blocks from the Plaza in the Taos Historic District, private walled courtyards and lots of off street parking. Plus I like the challenge of renovating neglected properties and a chance to collect furniture, whimsy and expand my local Taos art collection.
What makes this property unique
Privacy,location and personality. The two small casitas on this property are perfect for one-two guests and this main home Casa Grande sleeps six.
