Step through the teal front door and the high desert opens up around you. Casa Verde is a recently built Pueblo-style stucco home on a 3-acre corner lot on the sprawling Taos mesa, with mountain and valley views in every direction. Inside, exposed wood beams stretch over an open living area and kitchen, southwest-facing windows pour in natural light, and a freestanding wood stove sets the mood on cool evenings. Out front, a timber-framed portal shelters a fire pit and sling chairs, the perfect spot for morning coffee and fresh mountain air.

Sleeping Arrangements
Total occupancy: 6 guests
Total beds: 3 (2 queens and a sofa in the living room)
With two queen bedrooms, two full baths, and a sofa in the open living room, the layout works well for couples traveling together or a small family who want their own space.
Bedroom 1 features a queen bed dressed in teal bedding, with nightstands and lamps on either side, knotty pine closet doors, a ceiling fan, and two windows framing the distant mountains. It is a peaceful spot to wake up to the view.
Bedroom 2 features a queen bed under a quilted coverlet, brass reading sconces, a wooden chair, a luggage rack, and an open doorway to an adjoining bathroom. Two windows look out over open desert toward the mountains, making it a lovely retreat for a couple.
Bathrooms
Both bathrooms are full baths with a tub and tiled shower surround. One pairs a gray vanity with an arched black-framed mirror and bronze fixtures. The other has globe vanity lights, a large framed mirror, a window in the shower, and rustic wood shelves stacked with towels.
Living Areas
The living room is the heart of the home: a blue sofa and armchair gather around a coffee table and the wood stove, with large windows showing off the mountains and a beamed wood ceiling overhead. A flat-screen smart TV sits on a turquoise media console with woven baskets, a sliding barn door adds rustic character, and the room flows openly into the kitchen.
Kitchen & Dining
Cook with a view in a kitchen of warm wood cabinets and tiled counters, with a stainless five-burner gas range, oven, refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher. A coffee maker, electric kettle, toaster, and knife block keep mornings easy, and a window over the sink brings in the light. Gather for meals at the rustic wooden table with its red bench, right beside the kitchen.
Hot Tub & Covered Portal
End the day with a soak in the private hot tub under the big New Mexico sky. The timber-framed portal out front offers shade by day and a cozy fire pit with two wooden sling chairs by night, with mountains on the horizon and sagebrush all around.
