Way back...early 1950's Gordon (Slim) Bastian and his wife Lillian built this extraordinary pueblo revival, adobe home, in the style of famed adobe designers Wilfred and Myrtle Stedman, on 5.19 acres of land with water rights. This location was perfectly private for full time living but also provided easy commercial access for Slim's TV repair shop! Slim passed away in 1993 but ask any long time Taos residents where they used to get their TV's repaired and certainly they will talk about Slim Bastian. Fast forward, 2015...this remarkable adobe home offers the grace of yesteryear with all the modern conveniences. The house is approximately 2944 sq ft with 2 bedrooms, office, and 2 baths PLUS the 2 attached but private 1 bedroom, 1 bath guest suites where the TV repair shop used to be. Main house has gorgeous wood floors and 3 Carmen Velarde wood burning kiva fireplaces, museum quality character with carved wood doors by Elidio Gonzales, gorgeous latilla and viga ceilings and newer divided light windows that capture the pueblo revival character. The 2 guest suites are large, have beautiful baths and can be used in a variety of ways...studios, offices, rentals, or just for your own guests! Lots of versatility here. Beautiful patios, portals. 5.19 acres with surface water rights (that are being used!) orchard, and stunning views! The property is zoned County but also commercial within the Upper Colonias Neighborhood Association Zoning. So make this property your private oasis with easy access, or a bunkhouse, B&B, home office, studio, business or???
