Amenities
New interiors, mountain views, and room to breathe.
The comfort here starts with what you cannot see: the 2018 work that put new kitchens, windows, insulation, and heating into every home. What you can see, from the walkways between buildings, is Taos Mountain.

A 2018 rebuild, down to the studs
Every original home was stripped and rebuilt in 2018: a fortified building envelope, high-performance windows and doors, new mechanical systems, and new kitchens and baths. The community earned LEED Platinum certification for the work.
-
Insulation far beyond code
The newest homes were designed to Passive House insulation levels, R-56 walls and an R-106 roof, so indoor temperatures hold steady through mountain winters and utility bills stay low.
-
Passive solar orientation
The 2018 homes are oriented to welcome the low winter sun, cutting heating loads the natural way at 7,000 feet.
-
Permeable parking
The parking areas let rain and snowmelt soak into the ground where they fall, instead of running off into the street.
Tierra Montosa belongs to a New Mexico family of green-built affordable communities, with sister properties from Taos to Hobbs holding Enterprise Green Communities certification and LEED ratings up to Platinum.
