Set on three private acres between Durango and Purgatory Resort, this beautifully crafted log home captures the essence of Colorado mountain living. Nestled against dramatic red rock cliffs with sweeping mountain and valley views, it offers warmth, craftsmanship, and a seamless connection to nature in every direction. Inside, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms, three bathrooms, and inviting living areas that blend comfort with rustic elegance. The living room features soaring log-beam ceilings, panoramic windows, and a stunning stone fireplace that anchors the space in mountain charm. A cozy family area with a gas freestanding fireplace adds to the home’s welcoming ambiance. The main-level primary suite opens directly to the deck, while the lower level includes two additional bedrooms and a large art studio or recreation room—perfect for guests, hobbies, or relaxation. A private office with glass doors leading outside provides an inspiring work-from-home setting. The kitchen showcases tile-granite countertops, a generous island, and an open layout that flows naturally into the dining and living areas, all framed by breathtaking views. Nearly every room on the main level opens to an expansive 2, 000+ sq ft deck—ideal for entertaining, soaking in the hot tub, or stargazing under Durango’s clear night skies. Additional highlights include a heated 720 sq ft workshop with an extra 312 sq ft of non-heated space, paved access, no covenants, and proximity to national forest trails and Purgatory Resort. The fenced garden with raised beds is perfect for those seeking a self-sustaining lifestyle surrounded by nature. Furniture is negotiable. Since 2021, thoughtful improvements have enhanced both the home and property. Fire mitigation, grading, and landscaping introduced native grasses, wildflowers, and mature spruce and aspen trees. Upgrades include a Generac whole-house generator, new asphalt driveway, split-rail fencing, cedar decks, log railings, and stone walkways that flow gracefully around the home and garden. The workshop was improved with insulation, lighting, a propane heater, and two roof extension for covered storage. Additional updates include a retaining wall for improved drainage, fresh exterior paint, a radon mitigation system, a new soaking tub, and updated kitchen appliances. A shared road maintenance agreement with neighbors ensures year-round access, with an annual fee of $700.
