Adobe Retreat - Walk to Plaza, Fireplace, Patio

Summary:

Welcome to Adobe Retreat, a light-filled historic adobe just four blocks from Taos Plaza. Gather under soaring viga ceilings by the wood-burning fireplace, cook in a tile-trimmed kitchen with a sunny breakfast bar, and step out to a private, adobe-walled courtyard framed by green lawns and old cottonwoods. With local art at every turn and radiant-heated floors underfoot, this single-level home is a peaceful base for art, dining, and mountain adventures.



The Space:

Adobe Retreat is a classic single-level adobe home tucked into a quiet Taos neighborhood, just four blocks from the shops, galleries, and restaurants of the historic Plaza. Soaring wood-beam ceilings, skylights, hand-painted tile, and the work of local artists give the home its warm, unmistakably Taos character.



Inside, an open layout flows from a comfortable living room with a wood-burning fireplace to a tile-trimmed kitchen and a sunny dining nook with banquette seating. Two restful bedrooms and two full bathrooms, each finished with hand-painted Talavera sinks, give couples or a small family room to spread out. Outside, a private adobe-walled courtyard, covered portal, and landscaped lawn invite slow mornings and easy evenings in the high-desert air.



Whether you are here for the galleries and Plaza, a ski trip to Taos Ski Valley, or simply a quiet reset, Adobe Retreat blends historic charm with everyday comfort.

Living Areas

The living room is full of old Taos charm, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, soaring viga ceilings, and clerestory windows that fill the space with light. Leather and Southwestern seating gather around a smart TV on warm tile floors, with local artwork lining the walls. It is an easy place to relax after a day exploring town or the mountains.



Kitchen & Dining

The full kitchen features a gas range, full-size refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, and a tile-topped breakfast bar with seating.

Outdoor Space

The exterior is a true highlight. A private, adobe-walled courtyard and covered portal invite morning coffee and evening relaxation, while the landscaped lawn and old cottonwoods give the setting a green, peaceful feel. There is an outdoor shower for rinsing off after a day on the trails.

Very Comfortable

Perfect size for 4 people as the kitchen is well stocked with a great refrigerator and freezer with plenty of room. It snowed a lot during our mid-March visit so the access roads were quite muddy and drove the car instead of walking to the main village. The restaurants were all great but you need reservations for dinner. Overall had a great time and want to return this summer for hiking!

Great place for the price

We thoroughly enjoyed the condo. It was just the right size for four adults. It seemed on first glance as clean (overall was clean) but we did notice two puzzle pieces on the carpet, which led us to believe the carpet was not vacuumed after the last renter. We would definitely stay there again. The neighbors were also extremely nice, great location to the village and somewhat ski out.
