From the Agent: "Here’s a special opportunity to own an architectural wonder in majestic Taos: a sustainable earthship set on just under three-quarters of an acre with some of the best views in northern New Mexico. The structure itself is custom built with several Southwestern touches throughout the split-level structure with an indoor atrium perfect for growing greenery year-round. Brick floors, art nichos, thoughtful cabinetry and shelving, vibrant tile, and bancitos for extra seating and ample storage are a few special features within the home. There’s plenty of room for guests to sleep comfortably, and the drop-down Murphy bed is ideal for providing extra space in an already free-flowing floor plan. The outdoor space at 3 North Lemuria is an absolute gem with plenty of space to garden, with immersive mountain and gorge views in all directions."
In addition to skylights, the split-level house has large, slanted southeast-facing windows on each level, letting in plenty of light to grow plants.
The structure is designed to be heated by the sun and there’s a woodburning stove for chilly nights.
Earthships are designed to operate self sufficiently, and they often incorporate upcycled materials in their construction.
The home’s roof is dotted with solar panels.
