573 Range Rd
Welcome to your Oasis!! Set within the breathtaking high desert landscape of Taos and minutes from the Plaza. This extraordinary first time on the market, private estate offers a rare blend of timeless Northern New Mexico architecture, artisanal craftsmanship, and self-sustaining luxury. Built by Paul Rotman with substantial 18-inch thick Rastra Block walls, the residence embodies the enduring character of traditional adobe-style design while incorporating refined modern comfort. From the moment you enter through the handcrafted adobe entryway constructed with approximately 100-year-old bricks, the home reveals a level of artistry rarely found in traditional builds. Fourteen-foot ceilings, graceful coved ceilings in the kitchen, and diamond-finish plaster walls tinted with natural mineral pigments create a warm, sculptural interior that reflects the region’s rich architectural heritage. The chef’s kitchen is both bold and elegant, featuring granite countertops with full bullnose edges, custom cherry cabinetry, double ovens, and an intimate breakfast nook. Living spaces are anchored by gas fireplaces and custom stonework by renowned artisan Bob Loveless, complemented by natural stone tile flooring and expansive light-filled gathering areas including a tranquil sunroom. The primary suite offers a luxurious retreat with distinctive green marble accents in the bath, while upstairs cherry wood flooring adds warmth and refinement. Comfort throughout the home is provided by radiant floor heating, supplemental wall heaters, and a Navien high-efficiency boiler installed in February 2026. A charming casita with tongue-and-groove ceilings crafted from 400-year-old reclaimed wood provides exceptional guest accommodations or private retreat space. Beyond the residence, the property unfolds into an extraordinary multi-use compound. A heated three-car garage, artist studio, heated woodworking shop with professional dust collection system, and fitness room with full bath and laundry hookups create unmatched flexibility for creative pursuits, wellness, or home-based enterprises. The grounds themselves form a true Taos sanctuary. With 7+ acres of mature gardens and landscaping surround a productive orchard of apple, pear, apricot, cherry, peach, and plum trees, alongside flowering perennials and majestic Austrian pine, Colorado blue spruce, and bristlecone pines. Additional agricultural features include a tree nursery, chicken coop, bee house, hoop house, and irrigation access off the mother ditch. Designed for both sustainability and independence, the estate includes two wells (one solar powered), two cisterns, a five-zone in-ground irrigation system, RV hookups with water and 30-amp service, and a back porch pre-wired for a hot tub—perfect for enjoying the quiet beauty and star-filled skies of northern New Mexico. This exceptional offering represents a rare opportunity to own a private high-desert compound where craftsmanship, land stewardship, and luxury living come together in one remarkable Taos property.
