WELCOME TO ADOBE DE ARTISTA. This charming, custom adobe features 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and over 2000 sqft of living space with incredible views on 1.25 acres. Designed and built by renowned Taos painter, Ed Sandoval— adobe, wood, mica, straw, clay and stone come together to create an inspiring space on the Hondo Mesa just north of Taos, New Mexico.
