Welcome to 265 Mesa Sea Road, a meticulously appointed and maintained fully off-grid Earthship with all the comforts of on-grid living. Situated on five acres, bordered by Pueblo land to the east and a sprawling 100+ acre parcel to the west, the home is a short 20-minute drive from downtown Taos. Just five miles away is the gorgeous natural beauty of the Wild Rivers Recreation area for hiking, climbing, and river access for fishing. This spacious two-bedroom home offers larger-than-life views of the iconic Taos mountain and the majestic Picuris mountains, inside and out. As you enter, you'll be immediately struck by the exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail that defines this home. Brick floors and elegant adobe plaster, rustic rough sawn wood ceilings adorned with vigas, vibrant decorative glass and tile embedded in the walls throughout, every element points to a quality build and custom work rarely found at this price point. The master bedroom features wood floors, two large closets, and a beautifully crafted kiva fireplace. The spacious, fabulous bathroom boasts expansive windows flooding the space with natural light, a lush built-in planter, and a unique custom built-in vanity, along with a top-of-the-line composting toilet. The open kitchen is a welcoming space with custom red willow inlaid cabinetry, poured concrete countertops, and all common appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen, a spacious dining area accommodates six or more guests. A few steps above the dining area, the study offers versatility as a home office or additional living space, complete with a working kiva fireplace. Outside, flagstone paths, a covered patio, garden beds, and mature trees create a serene haven, enclosed by a stucco wall. A large yard is fully enclosed by a beautiful latilla fence and is waiting for a new owners finishing touches. Just steps away from the back door is a pergola with built-in benches and brick patio, perfect for enjoying the peace and quiet, and spectacular mountain sunsets. Yet more home features include a dedicated mudroom, multiple skylights, Hunter Douglas blinds throughout, full-sized washer and dryer, garden shed, generator, and an enclosed garage shed large enough for two vehicles. Part of the enormous appeal of Earthship homes is the natural temperature regulation from the solar gain and earth contact. Custom sunshades and a high-efficiency wood stove take care of modulating the temperature as well as two propane heaters and a swamp cooler. Maintenance of all the off-grid systems is minimal, and all have been regularly serviced and upgraded to keep them in optimal condition for many years of continued use. A new solar system provides electricity without an electric bill and Taos Net provides high-speed wireless internet. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat or a sustainable oasis, 265 Mesa Sea Road offers the perfect blend of natural beauty, modern amenities, sustainability and custom finishes. There's nothing left to be done with this home, inside and out! Book a tour or explore the virtual walkthrough to experience life on this exceptional property.
