*Adobe del Cielo – Artistic Adobe Retreat w/ Hot Tub, Mountain Views & Upgraded Amenities*
Welcome to Adobe del Cielo, a reimagined and lovingly upgraded retreat formerly known as Adobe de Artista. Designed by legendary Taos painter Ed Sandoval, this home is a fusion of art, architecture, and high-desert magic. The new owners have added thoughtful upgrades—including a custom outdoor propane fire pit, refreshed amenities, and elevated comforts—while keeping the home’s artistic soul intact.
Step inside and be transported. Handcrafted details fill every room: mica-flecked plaster walls, viga beams, smooth adobe curves, banco seating, hand-laid tiles, and whimsical artistic flourishes. Two inviting living spaces welcome relaxation—a sunken lounge with a kiva fireplace and a dining area framed by a round picture window that captures the surrounding mountains like a painting.
This semi-secluded adobe features 2 bedrooms with en suite baths, a third full bathroom, in-home laundry, and a den/movie room with a queen-size pull-out sofa, allowing the home to comfortably sleep up to 6 guests. The primary suite includes its own fireplace, walk-in closet, and a spa-like river stone shower. The second bedroom opens to a private patio for peaceful mornings with mountain air.
Outside, the magic continues. Multiple patios, shady nooks, and open-air lounges welcome sunrise coffee, sunset cocktails, and nights spent under the stars. Unwind in the private hot tub, gather around the custom propane fire pit, grill and dine al fresco, or sway on the portal swing as the desert breeze settles in. In the evenings, the sky ignites with constellations and the Milky Way—pure New Mexico enchantment.
Perfectly located between Taos Plaza, Taos Ski Valley, and the Rio Grande Gorge, Adobe del Cielo offers effortless access to skiing, hiking, hot springs, art galleries, and the vibrant culture of northern New Mexico.
