Description

Elevated above the Animas Valley, this distinctive contemporary home captures sweeping 360-degree views while offering convenient access to everything Durango has to offer. Animas Mountain, Perins Peak, and Missionary Ridge create a dramatic backdrop, framed by expansive custom windows throughout the home. An impressive entry welcomes you with soaring 20-foot ceilings, stone flooring, and a sculptural staircase. Vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light, and an open, airy layout complement the architecture, while central air conditioning provides summer comfort. Trex decks and private porches on multiple levels offer inviting spaces to relax, entertain, and take in the surrounding scenery. There is a deck for every occasion; entertaining guests and dining, simply taking in the views, morning coffee, or enjoy the evening sunsets. The remodeled kitchen features granite countertops, beautiful cabinetry, newer stainless-steel appliances, and a convenient pass-through to the adjoining family room. Main living room has in your face Animas Valley views with the adjoining deck that wraps the entire NE side of the home, while the den room creates a quiet place to read or relax. The primary suite offers a spacious walk-in closet and a beautifully remodeled bath with striking tilework, a separate shower, and a two-person soaking tub. The flexible layout accommodates five bedrooms or four bedrooms plus an office, with generous closets throughout. Three full baths, plus a powder room on the main living floor for guests. Oversized two-car garage, a separate rear storage room, ample driveway parking and additional dirt-road access to the lower portion of the lot provide room for outdoor gear and recreational equipment. Low-maintenance xeriscaping incorporates native vegetation, river rock, and flagstone. As a short term rental, it has typically generated more than $100, 000 in annual gross rental revenue while still accommodating the seller's own stays in Durango. Whether envisioned as a primary residence, a second home with space for remote work, or a rental investment, this property offers exceptional versatility. Rental history and financial records are available for buyer review; future rental use is subject to applicable requirements. Situated within La Plata County, but just minutes from downtown Durango, the property combines an elevated setting with access to Hillcrest Golf Club, the recreation center, shopping, and dining. Mercy Hospital and Purgatory Resort are also within easy reach.
