RANCHITOS-UPPER (35B)

Two homes. One extraordinary setting. Big Taos skies, unobstructed mountain views, total privacy—and the kind of everyday freedom that’s getting harder and harder to find in El Prado. Set just off Millicent Rogers Road on 1.99 acres with water rights bordering Pueblo land, this is a place that doesn’t just offer space—it changes how you live. You’re close to Taos and Taos Ski Valley, but once you’re here, it feels like your own quiet world. The main home is a 2-bedroom, 2-bath plus office/study Pueblo-style residence of approximately 2,155 square feet, grounded in warmth and light. Vigas, tile floors, dramatic fireplace and big windows pull the landscape straight into the living spaces. The layout is open and easy—made for real living, long dinners, and nights that drift from conversation to stargazing without effort. Upstairs, a private suite accessed by cantilever stairs becomes a true escape: quiet, elevated, and complete with a spa-like bath. Outside, the rhythm slows down—sunsets stretch longer, the sky feels wider, and the hot tub becomes part of the nightly ritual. An attached two-car garage keeps life simple. Set apart for privacy, the guest house offers approximately 900 square feet with 1 bedroom and 1 bath. It’s fully independent with its own entrance and a relaxed, open feel—perfect for guests who never want to leave, steady rental income, or a studio that keeps creativity close but not crowded. What makes this property rare isn’t just the two homes—it’s the feeling. You can live expansively here. Share it, separate it, or do both at once. Income potential, multigenerational living, creative freedom—everything works because the land, the views, and the layout make it possible. And the truth is simple: properties like this don’t wait around in El Prado.
