Property Description
Exceptional Earthship in the Greater World Community. This meticulously maintained 2 bedroom, 1 bath off-grid home on ~1.8 Acres was built 2021. It occupies one of the most desirable locations in the Greater World Community, just outside Taos. It has easy access from SR64, yet is far enough far enough from the Highway to provide the quiet, private environment that off-grid living allows. This is a newer model, with upgrades that go well beyond the standard build. It has passive cooling in all rooms, dual battery banks offering exceptional reliability and flexibility in power management with the original 7,200 Watt-hour lithium battery bank paired with a second 9,600 Watt-hour lithium bank for a combined 16,800 Watt-hours of storage. Run them independently, or together depending on your needs. Two 1,650-gallon cisterns provide 3,300 gallons of catchment storage, using a highly efficient collection system. The current owner has lived in the home full-time for over two years without ever purchasing supplementary water. Hot water is supplied by a two stage system including a modern solar water heater with a propane on-demand backup for consistent temperatures year-round. Enjoy outdoor living with patio and privacy wall for both seclusion and excellent wind protection creating a comfortable, functional outdoor space in any weather. The large interior greenhouse runs the full length of the home, currently producing fruiting banana trees, citrus fruits, and a variety of cooking and healing herbs. There is even space left for additional plantings. In the living spaces custom cabinetry, mud-plastered walls, and handcrafted artistic details give the home a warm, distinctive character unique to Earthship design. In addition, the property is just minutes from the Rio Grande del Norte National Monument offering Whitewater rafting, hunting, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, and camping; Taos with its many restaurants, parks and art galleries; and the Taos Ski Valley with year round recreation including World Class skiing, hiking and fishing in Alpine lakes and streams. Whether used as a primary residence, rental, or investment property this Earthship is one of a kind.
