Luxurious & Sustainable High Desert Castle on the Valdez Hillside ~ Welcome to Winsor Castle, 3,300 sqft of pure magnificence pleasantly situated near Taos Ski Valley, just a short distance to Central Taos, with some of the most remarkable views in New Mexico. This exquisite and overbuilt residence inspired… Read More by the Mabel Dodge Luhan House is set on over one acre of lush piñon & juniper forest. To put it bluntly, the entire residence was overbuilt by the current and only owner, to his personal taste. Upon stepping into the solar passive residence powered by a net-metered solar system, you will encounter endless meticulousness amongst several hand-crafted and traditional custom features. High ceilings with impressive 10x10 Douglas fir vigas and tongue-and-groove accents that create an open, airy, and well lit atmosphere, complemented by recessed lighting. Special 6-sided Mexican Saltillo tile floors above radiant heated floors throughout the home, and travertine tile archways evoke a special Southwest feeling. Extending from the kitchen and living room into the primary bedroom you will encounter perhaps the home's most notable feature; a spectacular tropical greenhouse with 16' ceilings, surrounded by hand harvested quartzite grey stone walls. The primary ensuite is a true sanctuary, offering mountain views directly from the soaking tub through the banana trees in the greenhouse. With 4 spacious bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and generous living areas, this residence offers a unique blend of comfort and eco-consciousness. Emser travertine tile and white marble floors grace the primary bathroom with a steam shower. At the heart of the home is a chef's kitchen with a Viking gas range, featuring stunning 2 teak and marble countertops, a New Orleans brick backsplash and a Tuscany-inspired mosaic behind the flame. As for the impressive R-Value of the home, these 16'' poured pumice-crete walls and double-studded interior walls, ensure complete climate control, along with no sound interruptions room-to-room. Furthermore, the 4'ft thick roof, insulated with blown cellulose bales, significantly enhances energy efficiency, and incredibly low utility bills. Outside, the property is an oasis. Terraced organic vegetable and flower gardens, and a variety of fruit and shade trees like apple and apricot, seasonal perennials such as echinacea, daisies, and sunflowers, all of which create a vibrant landscape, perfectly maintained by an 8-zone Rainbird irrigation system. Classic brick and flagstone portals around the home offer unbelievable views of the Valdez Valley, El Salto cliffs & majestic Taos Mountain, and especially so from the infrared or sauna during evening soaks in the hot tub overlooking these majestic vistas. Beyond the home's many special features, the location and convenience is equally impressive as it provides easy access to outdoor adventures, including hiking, biking, and trout fishing in the Arroyo Hondo River. The quaint village of Arroyo Seco is a mere 3 miles away, and offers delightful restaurants, shops, and entertainment. This luxurious, overbuilt, and truly special residence offers a unique and sustainable lifestyle amidst the unparalleled beauty of Northern New Mexico. Read Less
