Casa Grande In Downtown Taos

This newly remodeled three bedroom home has it all! Tiled kitchen with new appliances is well equipped and supplied for cooking at home. I always like to say if I don't have it, you won't need it! There is a separate dining room with mountain views. The living room is large-nicely furnished and comfortable. There is a fireplace and plenty of fragrant cedar firewood provided. There are three bedrooms. Front bedroom has a queen, middle bedroom has a double and the master bedroom has a king. Each bedroom has closet space and a dresser . I provide two cozy robes in each bedroom too for lazy mornings or comfy evenings. There are two tiled full baths with soaps, shampoo/conditioner and hair dryer provided.
This home was totally remodeled in early 2016. It was quite an undertaking! All walls and kitchen cabinets were painted a warm cream. All new operable screened windows and stained trim. Tongue and groove ceilings (I stained 1300 feet of tongue and groove. Whew!) New trim tile in the blue bathroom and completely new mango bathroom.
Then the fun part, the furnishing and decorating! I furnish with my antiques and treasures from local consignment stores and estate sales. All my bedding and towels are from my favorite Company Store catalogue so all bright colors and high quality. I love original Taos art so you will find it in every room. I have a penchant for whimsy and it's here and there. I am often asked about my decorating style- I call it "Melissiana". Actually my plumber said it best when he said, "Nothing you do makes any sense, but when you are done, it all works!"
This home is located on a quiet one block dead end street. The only sounds you hear are birds, wind chimes and the church bells from Our Lady of Guadalupe a block away. There is private on site parking. A walled courtyard with big trees, lilacs offer outdoor living spaces for two and four legged guests. I was a professional landscaper in California before I moved to Taos and it is still my passion. In ground flowering plants as well as boxes decorated by me and big ceramic pots full of color are everywhere.
There are two outdoor living areas in front. To the left of the front gate there is a vintage glider and to the right a table and six comfortable chairs as well as a large BBQ grill. There is an additional outdoor living area off the master bedroom in the back.
As with all ten of my properties Casa Grande is pet friendly.
This home is actually part of a fourplex compound. I live in one of the little casitas so am always available to answer any questions. There are also two additional casitas that I rent for short term visits. Casa azul (Vrbo 797997) And Casa Verde (Vrbo 920144). Each have living/dining, tiled baths and queen bedrooms. Each also have private walled courtyards. Often guests rent the compound for large groups. I can sleep up to ten guests on this property..
There is a central laundry room available for all my guests and on site parking.
Casa Grande is located on a quiet, one block dead end street and is only three blocks from Taos Plaza.
This downtown compound was featured on the 2017 Taos Home & Garden Tour where on a Saturday in August 500 tour goers had a chance to check out my style. Too much fun!!!
If this home is booked for your dates please look at Vrbo 482097 another of my downtown homes which also offers three bedrooms and two baths.

Comfortable stay in Taos

The home was comfortable. My friend and I were able to spread out, each had our own bed and bathroom. Being able to do laundry there was a bonus! It was located very close to downtown Taos. I would stay here again.

Such a great location, we love staying here!

This was the 3rd (maybe 4th) time we have stayed at this location. The house is perfectly located and walking distance to the Taos town square which we love. Pet friendly and the closed in courtyard is the perfect for the fur babies. This was the first time to use the BBQ outside and we fired it up multiple times.Excellent stay as usual. We will be back for sure.

What a great property

I wanted a place to stay with my extended family including my elderly mother within walking distance to the plaza for a few nights and it was more than adequate. My mother, who lives in Arizona, hasn’t sat in front of the fireplace in quite some time. We had some cool weather and she couldn’t have been happier. The kitchen and dining areas were quite roomy and the beds very comfortable. We will stay again

Really cool place!

We had a great time at Melissa's house! There was plenty of room for us to all hang out, but also have our private space. The fireplace and repository of pinon wood was a very pleasant and welcome surprise, and the courtyard was a great place for two dogs to get their ya-yas out. And downtown is just a few minutes walk away. Thanks for having us!

Cozy Place near Taos Plaza

3 bed / 2 bath / full kitchen. It was wonderful having all the extra space to spread out. It was very close to the thick of things and was able to walk from the house to the square as well as Bent St shops. Highly recommend property and location. Place was clean and furnished well.
