This 2400 sq. ft. home rests at the very beginning of the high mesa just outside of Taos. To the east, the Taos valley is green and verdant fed by rivers and streams that run down from the mountains, and to the west the high sagebrush mesa stretches off to the distant Brazos range. The house is sited to capture the high mountains to the northeast through the floor to ceiling height corner window off the kitchen/dining room.The main feature of this house is the central Atrium which is an 18 foot adobe octagon topped with a skylight to form an indoor courtyard complete with a fountain. Off of this central space are two offset squares, one to the east and one to the west. The bedrooms and mechanical room are on the west side and the kitchen, dining, living room and an office are on the east side. The house is a straw bale/adobe hybrid, has custom hand dyed plaster throughout with Talavera Tile in the public spaces and Saltillo Tile in the bedrooms. There is a large kiva fireplace in the living room, and a smaller one occupies a corner in the Master Bedroom. The Master Bathroom is finished in white marble tile. The separate garage is connected to the house with a triangular, arched breezeway with a copper ceiling.

Sited perfectly and intuitively on a beautiful parcel of land, this Vermont contemporary home is complemented by an intricate roof design, appreciated from above. The long axis of the house faces south on the gently sloping site to bring midwinter daylight and passive solar gain deep into the 16 ft. wide main volume. Just 2.5 acres of the 17.5 acre lot was developed, to minimize disturbance to the site, to preserve many of the long-lived mixed hardwood and softwood trees, including the owners’ favorite, a yellow birch with golden curly bark, and to protect the natural wetlands and stream outflow. The fully accessible main level contains the living room, dining room, kitchen, primary bedroom and bath, and a lovely westerly screened porch. Connected to the main volume are a garage with three bays including a small studio and a workshop. The home prioritizes intuitive, organic and incredibly functional spaces combined with simple stylistic elements, hints of a mid-century modern American home.

There’s also a private office area and a handsome club room with a fully-equipped custom bar, media lounge, and game space. The second-floor loft living room has a dedicated snack bar and is the perfect spot for winding down and catching up on your favorite shows.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The grounds are beautifully designed with tropical and mature landscaping affording great privacy, with unobstructed waterway views. A heated resort-style pool/spa is accented with glass tiles and a beautiful bright deck. A large covered terrace houses a built-in summer kitchen and raised floor with wood tile. The home features 4.5 air-conditioned garages opening to a gated granite paver motor court. This is a remarkable home in Boca Raton’s finest community.⁠⠀

Our design and planning team also took into account what the view would be from inside the house as well as outside. For example, the eight-foot-high pondless waterfall can also be seen from inside. It is not just a beautiful focal point; it hides the pool equipment that local regulations require be put in the middle of the backyard. www.deckandpatio.com

Multiple waterfalls can generate lots of noise, drowning out road noise or neighbors while providing an excellent spot to relax next to and enjoy the natural scenery. This water feature was created to allow the home owner to see it from many different angles. They are able to it enjoy it from their deck up above, their living room and their walk out basement.
