Description

Beautiful Adobe-style home with magnificent panoramic view of Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Slow down. Take in the scenery. Enjoy the crimson hues of the mountain range at every sunrise and sunset from our unique second-story gazebo and spacious portals, or just stay cozy inside and gaze at nature from our walls of windows. After a hard day on the ski slope or from hiking, relax in the bubbly hot tub, read your favorite book by the fireplace, or sip your favorite drink on east-facing portals.

This well-appointed, comfortable home tastefully displays a collection of southwest potteries, paintings, lightings, custom stained-glass artwork and other collectibles in every room. It offers 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths.

The home is located in the coveted Blueberry Hill area, at the corner of one of Taos’ main paved roads. No tracking long-distance on 4WD on dirt or gravel, spine-jolting, bumpy roads is required! Home sits high on a 5-acre lot with privacy fence. Home is 5.5 miles from Taos Plaza and a quick, easy drive to restaurants, shops, sights, and outdoor recreational activities including fly fishing, biking, hiking, horseback riding, skiing, snow boarding, white water rafting, and golfing.

The first master bedroom is complete with a wood-burning fireplace and an en suite bath with double sinks. The 2nd master bedroom also sports an en suite full bath with double sinks. Both en suite baths have large walk-in shower for easy, convenient access. The 3rd bathroom is located next door to 3rd bedroom, and it has a bathtub and shower combo.

The spacious 21' x 25' great room truly speaks to quality family time as it provides multiple seating areas, a surround sound entertainment system and a collection of table games for the young and old.

The house has an ideal chef's kitchen: it is equipped with all new, high tech, LG kitchen appliances in slick, black stainless steel. The kitchen also provides all sorts of cookware, cooking utensils and serving dishes for any size meal sharing. The laundry room is outfitted with state of the art washer and dryer, and all the bedrooms and bathrooms come with luxurious linens and towels.

Back problems? No worries. Each bedroom is provided with brand new Sealy Premium Posturepedic king mattress set (purchased in July 2022). Mattress 6-sided encasements and soft, noiseless and breathable protectors are used on all beds to reduce allergens, increase comfort level, and keep them clean and fresh.

Eastern Star Retreat is a single level, modern, custom-built adobe-style home. No sunken living room or baths like many homes in this area. No steps or spiral staircase to climb or maneuver. Certainly, convenient and safe home features for all members of the family.

The radiant floor heating system under the Saltillo tiles provides gentle, even, warm air throughout home in the winter months. In the warmer months, the evaporative cooling system naturally changes the warm, dry air of this region into cool, moist air inside home.

You will feel instantly welcome and pleased as you enter the house and are presented with a foyer, a fireplace and a majestic mountain view. A true family get-away vacation! In the event you find the need to stay connected with the information highway, the high-speed fiber optic internet is in place for you.

Response from the owner We are glad that so many of our guests have enjoyed staying at Eastern Star Retreat. It provides the comfort of home in a grand, mountain-view setting. Home is set at 7,000 feet elevation and on 3 acres of land, dotted with sagebrushes, a prevalent feature in the northern desert and western plateau landscape. The home affords the privacy and serenity that most often our busy work-life does not have. Yet, the house is conveniently situated near the center of town, and an easy reach to nearby grocery stores, restaurants, shops and popular points of interests. Come on back, anytime!
