About this home

Situated within Colorado’s serene mountain landscape, this extraordinary 14.56-acre retreat offers a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and modern comfort. Towering ponderosa pines frame sweeping meadows of native grasses, creating a setting that feels both expansive and intimate. Reminiscent of a classic chalet, the fully remodeled 2,000-square-foot residence seamlessly blends rustic character with contemporary refinement across three thoughtfully designed levels. The dramatic great room welcomes you with a soaring 28-foot ceiling, a striking statement fan, and warm tongue-and-groove pine finishes throughout. Solid 1¼-inch gunstock oak flooring anchors the main living area, offering both durability and timeless elegance. The thoughtfully designed kitchen balances style and function with granite countertops and tranquil tree-lined views. Upstairs, expansive loft windows capture panoramic meadow vistas, providing a stunning vantage point for seasonal elk migrations. The versatile loft serves beautifully as a third bedroom, guest retreat, home office, yoga studio, or library, with generous storage integrated throughout. The lower level offers a modern family and theater room featuring sealed concrete flooring, surround sound wiring, and a high-definition flat screen—ideal for entertaining or relaxed evenings at home. The primary suite is a private sanctuary, complete with custom wall-to-wall hickory cabinetry, double vanities, Kohler fixtures, and a luxurious steam shower designed for true relaxation. Outdoor living is equally inviting. A covered west-facing porch captures cool summer breezes, while the expansive south-facing deck overlooks the meadow, where speckled fawns are often seen during the warmer months. Designed for both practicality and versatility, the property includes a well-appointed garage with LED lighting, automatic doors, hot and cold water bibs, and 220V outlets. A Cleary building with a 70-year warranty offers five covered stalls and an impressive 42-by-60-foot enclosed space ideal for RV storage, heavy equipment, or potential future living quarters. Located just 10 miles from Durango, the property provides a rare combination of seclusion and accessibility. A well-maintained county road ensures reliable year-round access for plow trucks, and dual gated driveways allow effortless trailer entry. An excellent domestic well, efficient all-electric utilities, and thoughtfully designed low-maintenance infrastructure support long-term durability and ease of ownership, all without HOA restrictions. Nature lovers will appreciate the seasonal creek, vibrant displays of lupine, bluebells, and wild irises throughout spring and summer, and abundant wildlife including elk, mule deer, owls, eagles, bobcats, bears, mountain bluebirds, hummingbirds, and more. Whether envisioned as a peaceful mountain sanctuary, an equestrian retreat, or an adventure-ready basecamp, this exceptional property captures the true essence of Colorado mountain living....
