Property Description
Sweeping, year-round views of the La Plata Mountains set the stage for this elegant 3,507-square-foot European-style log home, situated on a 35.1 acre lot, where privacy, wildlife, recreation, and comfortable living come together in a truly special setting. the property backs to National Forest, offering direct access to an incredible network of trails and open space. Please watch the video and virtual tour via the links. The home was built in 2005 with efficiency, craftsmanship, and functionality in mind, and features 4 ensuite bedrooms, 4½ baths, and a spacious primary suite with a tub, separate shower, three-person dry sauna, and walk-in closet with built-in drawers and shelving. Two of the four upstairs bedrooms have private balconies, all taking advantage of the beautiful mountain setting. Natural wood floors, vaulted timber ceilings, extensive built-ins, and European energy-efficient windows and doors give the home a warm, timeless character. In-floor heating adds comfort throughout the home, while thoughtful storage includes cabinetry and cubbies on both levels, attic storage, storage above the bathrooms in two bedrooms, two storage/tool rooms in the heated two-car garage, and additional space in the two-car carport. The chef's kitchen features granite countertops, a large island, five-burner stove, wall oven with built-in warmer, walk-in pantry, and included appliances. The inviting living room features floor-to-ceiling glazing, beautiful timber construction, and a multi-fuel fireplace that can be enjoyed with either gas or wood. Outdoor living is an extension of the home. A low-maintenance Trex deck stretches from the living room toward the La Plata Mountains and includes a propane fire pit, outdoor grill, and refrigeration—perfect for quiet evenings or entertaining alike. An enclosed deck serves as a sunroom, while the Trex front porch provides another place to take in the scenery. The gently sloping acreage extends toward two seasonal ponds, which attract waterfowl and other wildlife. Deer and elk are frequently seen throughout the area, and fall brings spectacular color as thousands of acres of aspen and Gambel oak turn brilliant shades of gold. Adventure is literally at the doorstep. With National Forest bordering the property, owners have immediate access to the forest and historic railroad grade, with connections toward Cherry Creek and the Madden Peak area. Approximately three miles west on Hwy 160, near longtime locals favorite restaurant Kennebec Cafe, is the road to La Plata Canyon, offering access to the La Plata River, waterfalls, peaks, and extraordinary mountain scenery. The surrounding area provides year-round opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, ATV/OHV riding, fishing, trail running, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and more. The HOA allows up to four horses, one guest house or "mother-in-law quarters" with a minimum of 1,000 square feet of heated living area, and one barn, stable, and corral area, subject to applicable requirements. The location combines peaceful seclusion with convenient access to regional amenities. Durango is approximately 14.7 miles away, Purgatory Ski Resort approximately 40.9 miles, and Wolf Creek Ski Area approximately 107 miles.
