A rare opportunity to own a mountain-modern retreat on 35 private acres just minutes from Downtown Durango. Nestled in the pines within a gated community, this 2020 custom-built home by Grandt Custom Homes offers exceptional privacy along with stunning views of the town, the City Reservoir, and the surrounding mountain ridges. It’s extremely uncommon to find a property of this size and setting so close to town. Short-term rentals are allowed, and the land permits two additional homes, making it ideal as a private estate or investment opportunity. This immaculately designed 2,234 SF home features three spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms. The oversized 846 SF two-car garage with acid-stained concrete floors connects to a lower-level living space that could serve as a guest suite or in-law apartment, complete with its own kitchenette, bedroom, bathroom, walk-in closet, and a stackable washer and dryer. The property includes over 600 square feet of covered outdoor living across three separate decks, ideal for enjoying the fresh mountain air and views. Inside, the elegant living room features vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, warm teak hardwood floors, and a wood-burning stove. The space opens to a covered patio shared with the primary suite, offering the perfect spot to relax in the shade. The kitchen is outfitted with granite countertops, a stainless-steel farmhouse sink, glass tile backsplash, pantry, limestone tile flooring, stainless appliances, generous counter space, and a built-in home office area. Whether enjoying casual meals at the breakfast bar or gathering in the adjacent dining area, this home accommodates every occasion. The main-level primary suite includes deck access, a spacious walk-in closet, and teak hardwood floors. The luxurious bath features dual glass vessel sinks, granite countertops, an oversized shower with dual shower heads, a jetted tub, and two large picture windows—one in the shower and one above the tub. A second en-suite bedroom is located behind the kitchen and includes a walk-in closet, limestone tile floors, and a full bath with a tub and glass enclosure. Behind the kitchen, the laundry room includes storage cabinets, a utility sink, and Samsung stackable washer and dryer. A second smaller covered deck is located off the laundry room. The lower level, in addition to the garage and guest suite, includes stained concrete floors and access to the third covered outdoor space. Additional highlights include a reverse osmosis system, whole-house water treatment, a high-producing well yielding over 30 GPM with capacity for three homes and irrigated gardens, a septic system permitted for five bedrooms, an RV site with its own electrical pedestal located 100 feet from the house for privacy, a whole-house backup generator, and a two-zone forced air heating system. The fully fenced grassy area beside the home is perfect for pets and kids to play. A scenic ravine winds through the acreage, creating peaceful sounds during the snowmelt season. If you’re looking for a newly built home surrounded by nature with minimal HOA and easy access to town, this one is not to be missed.
