Casa de Taos - Sweeping Mountain Views & Hot Tub | House in Arroyo Hondo
3 Bedroom House in Taos, Arroyo Hondo
Summary:
Welcome to Casa de Taos, an artful adobe home on 2.5 private acres of high-desert mesa with sweeping mountain views. Soak in the outdoor hot tub beneath brilliant starry skies, lounge on the wraparound covered porch, and sunbathe in the walled courtyard. Warm up by the wood-burning stove, cook in the chef's kitchen, and feel the comfort of radiant-heated slate floors. Just minutes from Taos and the ski valleys, it is an unforgettable Northern New Mexico escape.
The Space:
Casa de Taos is an artful adobe home tucked onto 2.5 private acres of sagebrush mesa, where sculpted walls, carved doors, and walls of glass frame sweeping mountain and high-desert views. The setting feels remote and serene, yet downtown Taos, the Rio Grande Gorge, and the ski valleys are all an easy drive away.
Inside, soaring wood ceilings, exposed steel trusses, and radiant-heated slate floors give the home a warm, gallery-like feel. The open living and dining areas flow out to a covered porch and a walled courtyard, so the line between indoors and the mesa nearly disappears. A wood-burning stove anchors the living room on cool desert evenings.
Whether you are here to ski, soak in the hot tub under the stars, explore Taos, or simply slow down on the mesa, Casa de Taos is a singular, design-forward basecamp for your Northern New Mexico stay.

The adjacent dining table seats six beneath a wrought-iron chandelier, with big windows framing the courtyard and mesa beyond.
Outdoor Space
Outside is where Casa de Taos truly shines. A covered porch wraps the home with deep wicker sofas, lounge chairs, and a dining table, all framing uninterrupted mountain views. A walled adobe courtyard offers cushioned loungers for sunbathing and stargazing, while flagstone patios, sage gardens, and a quiet bench invite slow mornings and golden-hour evenings on the mesa. A BBQ grill is on hand for cookouts.
