At the end of County Road 61 in Embudo, along the canyon between Santa Fe and Taos, a quieter stretch of the Rio Grande corridor unfolds among trees and open land. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath adobe home offers approximately 2,100 square feet on 1.49 acres, with access to the Rio Grande, a private well, and 2 quarter share of irrigation rights from the La Junta ditch. Step inside and the warmth of the wood-paneled rooms sets the tone. Honey-colored walls, exposed vigas, and natural light give the home a welcoming, lived-in character. Passive-solar design makes thoughtful use of the sun; a wood stove and fireplace bring another kind of warmth as evening settles in. The adobe addition also holds traditional artistry; made with red clay from La Bajada, white sand from Pilar and mica from the mine. Locally crafted kitchen cabinetry and artisan tile in the bathroom add unique local details. The acreage invites time outdoors and a hands-on connection with the land. Spend time by the Rio Grande, reviving the old adobe chicken coop, gathering your harvest from the fruit trees and creating your slice of paradise. About three miles away, Dixon is a welcoming center of Embudo Valley life, with local wineries, a popular restaurant, a cooperative market, and a seasonal farmers’ market. The award-winning Embudo Valley Library and Community Center, a local school, senior center, and holistic wellness center add to the town’s close-knit feel. With hiking and Rio Grande recreation nearby, Taos a short 30 minute drive; this Embudo home offers a thoughtful base for enjoying Northern New Mexico’s landscape and way of life.
If you've been looking for an affordable place to call home surrounded by some of the most spectacular scenery in Northern New Mexico, this Pilar property is worth a look. Set on one acre with sweeping mountain views and just minutes from the Rio Grande, this 1999 double-wide manufactured home offers three bedrooms, two baths, separate living and family rooms, a dining area, and an open kitchen with an island, generous cabinet space, and all appliances included. A large laundry room provides additional storage and workspace. A fireplace and wood-burning stove add warmth and character, while the evaporative cooler helps keep the home comfortable during the summer months. The washer and dryer also convey, and the home is served by a shared well and qualifies for conventional financing. A covered porch provides the perfect place to relax and take in the surrounding landscape. Comfortable and functional, the home is ready for some care and updating, making it an excellent opportunity for a first home, weekend retreat, or a place to live while planning future improvements. An added bonus is the second structure on the property.
