Designed by well-known Taos local Karlis Viceps with energy efficiency in mind, this 1,271 sq ft home in Valverde Commons is built using Ray-Core SIPS technology (www.raycore.com.) The home boasts a contemporary and clean feel with low operating costs incorporating a south-facing Trombe wall, double...-paned Sierra Pacific windows throughout, and pitched pro-panel roof for a sustained comfort throughout all seasons. Valverde Commons (www.valverdecommons.com), a 55+ Co-Housing Community in Northern New Mexico with 28 homesites which circle a common grassy area with paths for morning strolls and sunset walks, is situated in Taos town. From this location you can enjoy walking or biking to shops, restaurants, the library, farmer’s market, concerts, and gallery openings as well as being in a pastoral setting and attached to the land. It offers a beautiful space with views of the mountains for gatherings, concerts, and dinners. For skiers, the drive to Taos Ski Valley is gorgeous and typically around 25 minutes to the base (29 miles.) The community also offers a Common Barn with shared landscaping tools, a woodworking shop, and additional space for undertaking projects, as well as a Common House that offers a large meeting space, full group kitchen, library, USPS boxes and lots of other conveniences. Plus, the adjacent Sunset Park provides 10+ acres of open space for additional area to exercise or walk the dogs. Strategically positioned to maximize the warmth of the sun in winter months, and with more than enough outside living area on its decking and in its patio areas (with eyelets located strategically to support shade sails), this home makes for a lovely residence. The grounds are developed but yet simple and are irrigated via a drip-system and also with rain water which is fed through buried perforated tubing running throughout some of the gardens. The entrance to the home is at its mid-point with a closet immediately on the left. The home’s primary suite is located on its east side which catches the amazing morning sun while the guest bedroom (which can be closed off in the future if desired) is located behind the kitchen on the west side of the home allowing for ample privacy for when guests are in town. The primary bedroom is large and can also serve as a combined living area and it offers a small loft for storage above the primary bathroom. The open-plan kitchen/dining area offers repurposed matte finish marble countertops, modern appliances, a door leading out onto the west-side patio, and plenty of pantry space/storage. The home’s ceilings are high and constructed out of a mix of corrugated metal and maple Class B finish wood. Two solar tubes, one in each of the bathrooms, are present and there is plenty of recessed lighting to complement the natural Taos sunlight when needed. The floors are of engineered material throughout with the exception of tile flooring in the bathrooms, all areas offering in-floor radiant heat across three differentiated zones. For anyone looking for a lifestyle congruent with those that already live in and enjoy what the Valverde Commons community has to offer, you do not want to miss out on this opportunity!
