Experience Dragonfly Estate, 5250 sq ft, Luxury Retreat. | House in El Prado
5 Bedroom House in Valdez, El Prado
Dragonfly is an elegant, comfortable one-of-a-kind, 'mountain retreat', off Ski Valley Road, and midway between the town of Taos and Taos Ski Valley. Exquisite ‘top of the hill’ 360 degree views of Taos Mountain and explosive sunsets across the plains. NOTE: We are shifting to 31 days or longer rentals due to a new ordinance that restricts short term rentals in Taos County. This 5250 sqft gated private estate on 5 acres has Southwest ambiance throughout with 3 kiva fireplaces, viga ceilings, copper sconces, nichos, and luxury decor and original art.
Hummingbirds and dragonflies are frequent visitors in the extensive gardens full of local Rocky Mountain wildflowers, roses, lavender and fruit trees. Have your morning coffee in the front garden, or an evening barbeque in the back gardens with the rock waterfall/pond full of water lilies and tiger salamanders. Relax in the magical ATRIUM with orchids, ferns and flowers and surround sound, in the den/MUSIC ROOM. Enjoy the steam room shower in the main master bedroom after a day of hiking or skiing the slopes. Pass to nearby spa/fitness center/pool provided upon request.
The living room with its custom bronze entertainment cabinet, kiva fireplace and wet bar offers relaxing evenings. Dragonfly has a fully-equipped kitchen with professional range-oven, espresso maker, waffle maker and more, and a breakfast bar that opens to a gracious formal dining room with kiva fireplace. Enjoy 4 master bedroom suites (k, q, q +twin, 2 twins), each with unique decor, ensuite bath, walk-in closets...a rare find in Taos. (Extra nomad floor foam mattresses and queen sofa bed available for larger groups). With living, eating, and sleeping areas both upstairs and down, it feels like two houses! Enjoy our pianos, drum set and other instruments. With HI-SPEED FIBER, It’s a great place for work and play!
Please note this is a private retreat and home. We are a drug and smoke free property, NO parties.
Please request permission for pets.
We typically house 5 to 10, however, we can accommodate more persons with advance notice and preparation. It’s a palace for a couple. Please enquire first for groups more than 10 and disclose total number in your group at the time of your booking. It is also lovely space for writers, composers, screenwriters, and artists.
For winter months AWD or 4WD with clearance is required as snow and ice can be sudden and generous.
