Not far from the pond where red-winged blackbirds sing and red-tailed hawks soar overhead sits this beautiful move-in ready home offering privacy, abundant natural light, mountain views, and an exceptional indoor-outdoor lifestyle. From the moment you walk in, you’ll love the soaring vaulted ceilings with wood beams, warm wood detail, and peaceful green views from nearly every window. The spacious split-level floor plan creates separation and flexibility while maintaining an open, connected feel throughout the home. Filled with natural light, the main living area centers around a striking floor-to-ceiling stone gas fireplace that anchors the space beautifully. The living room flows seamlessly into the dining area and kitchen, where immaculately maintained wood floors become one of the standout features of the home, adding warmth, richness, and continuity throughout the main living spaces. Sliding glass doors expand the living area to the freshly renovated Trex deck, complete with a new stairway leading down to the hot tub and expansive private backyard — an ideal setting for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying Colorado outdoor living. The kitchen offers abundant cabinet storage, generous counter space, tile backsplash, newer high-quality appliances, and a window over the sink overlooking the large green backyard and mature landscaping. Down the hall on the main level, the spacious primary suite serves as a true retreat, featuring a large bedroom, walk-in closet, and en suite bath with dual vanities. One of the standout features of the suite is the adjoining flex space with two additional closets — ideal for a private office, study, exercise room, reading lounge, nursery, or creative space. The main level also includes a second bedroom and full bathroom, creating a highly functional layout with exceptional everyday livability. Three mini-split heat pump systems installed in 2020 provide efficient heating and air conditioning throughout the home.

The lower level adds exceptional flexibility to the home with private access through the attached garage, creating a natural separation from the upper living spaces. This spacious second living area is centered around a second gas-burning stove and highlighted by a wall of windows that brings in beautiful natural light. On this level, the third bedroom is enhanced by a newly installed custom closet from Colorado Closets Plus. A generous laundry room includes the high-quality washer and dryer, newer water heater, water softening system, and additional storage space that could potentially be converted into a future third bathroom on the first floor. Situated on a quarter-acre lot with flowering trees, aspen, oak, and Ponderosa pine, this property combines mountain living with convenience — located just 10 minutes from Downtown Durango and only 7 minutes from La Plata Canyon.
