Property details
About 322 County Road 243
Step into your waders and into your personal backyard fishing paradise.This house sits like a jewel along the Florida River, its covered deck welcoming friends and family. Walking through the front door, the floor-to-ceiling windows take center stage and serve as a portal between two worlds—the comfort of home and the endless beauty of nature flowing just beyond. The kitchen is the heart of the house and features sleek black quartz countertops complementing the handcrafted alder wood cabinetry. Warm oak floors add timeless charm throughout the entire house. The family room beckons with its wood-burning fireplace, promising cozy evenings when winter settles over the valley. But it's the doors leading to the second covered deck are truly inviting. When opened wide, they transform the living space into something magical—a seamless blend of indoor comfort and outdoor serenity. The river's gentle murmur becomes a natural sound machine, washing away the stress of the outside world. In the primary bedroom, peace reigns supreme. The wall of windows overlooking the water creates a master suite that feels more like a luxury retreat than a simple bedroom. Here, mornings begin with the river's gentle wake-up call, and evenings end with the soothing sounds of water flowing right below you. The generous walk-in closet offers practical storage, while the clever crawlspace provides extra space for storage. The full bathroom, with its clawfoot tub and dual vanities, becomes a personal spa where the walk-in shower offers quick refreshment after days spent exploring the great outdoors. The second bedroom stands ready to transform into whatever life demands—a home office for the remote worker, a creative studio for the artist, or a cozy den. There is a nearby three-quarter bathroom. Wildlife enthusiasts will appreciate visits from turkeys and owls, while anglers will love the exceptional fishing. The hot tub overlooking the river is negotiable, offering the perfect spot to unwind after a day of outdoor adventures. Practical considerations blend seamlessly with natural beauty. The central sewer system eliminates septic concerns, while the 20-minute drive to Durango makes getting to town easy. Lemon and Vallecito Lakes offer weekend adventures, and the nearby National Forest provides endless opportunities for hiking, camping, and exploration. But perhaps the most remarkable feature of this property can't be measured in square feet or listed among amenities. It's the way the house seamlessly blends with the rhythm of the river, the way indoor and outdoor living merge. Here, residents don't just live near nature—they become part of it.
