FOR RENT OR FOR SALE!! This four-bedroom home is perfect for nature lovers. It is tucked high in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and yet is well located: just 12 miles to world-class skiing at Taos Ski Valley, 13 miles to Taos Plaza, and 11 miles to the Rio Grande at John Dunn Bridge. The house has high-speed fiber-optic internet (up to 400 Mbps). The upstairs rooms are designed as artists' studios and feature individual decks overlooking the mountains. Hand-plastered mica-infused interior walls and a soft, natural color palette reflect the surrounding landscape, creating a warm, earthy, and artistic ambiance throughout. Lovingly stewarded for two decades by a wildlife biologist and land management specialist, the property is ecologically thoughtful, inviting wildlife and maintaining a healthy forest habitat. Situated at 8,000 feet overlooking the sweeping vistas of Gallina Canyon, the property spans 6.48 pristine acres bordered by ancient Ponderosa pines, Gambel's oak groves, and a seasonal creek. The property offers immediate access to mountain biking, cross country skiing, hiking, snowshoeing, and birdwatching - with the Columbine-Hondo Wilderness just a short walk away. Whether you're watching elk wander through the trees, soaking in golden sunsets from the porch, or stargazing in stillness, this is a place to connect with nature, creativity, and yourself. A truly one-of-a-kind retreat that must be experienced to be believed. . AWD or 4x4 needed in the winter. Renter pays utilities.
