Property Description
Nestled among tall pines in the desirable Florida River Estates, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home with a lower level bonus room offers privacy, space, convenience, AND vacation rental income potential, all on just under 2 acres—only 15 minutes from Downtown Durango and 40 minutes from Purgatory Resort. A circular paved driveway welcomes you with ample parking and easy access, setting the tone for this peaceful mountain retreat. Inside, the main level is thoughtfully designed with all primary living spaces and bedrooms, creating a highly functional and livable layout. Vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, a cozy wood-burning stove, and floor-to-ceiling windows fill the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas with natural light while showcasing the surrounding forest and mountain views. Hydronic baseboard heating adds warmth and comfort in the colder months. The kitchen features granite countertops, a breakfast bar, and a full suite of newer appliances—including an electric range, microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator—flowing seamlessly into the dining and living spaces for easy entertaining. The primary suite includes a double vanity and a spa-like wet room bathroom with a soaking tub and sliding glass door. Two additional bedrooms frame the hallway bathroom. The stairs lead down to a lower level, adding flexibility with a bonus room featuring a private exterior entrance, and connectivity to the laundry area and a newly renovated ¾ bath—ideal for guests, a home office, or home gym. Outdoor living is a standout feature, highlighted by an expansive wraparound deck spanning two sides of the home. This deck offers multiple vantage points to enjoy the serene setting, towering pines, and mountain views, and it backs to a 10-acre conservation easement for added privacy. Outdoor amenities also include a stunning mountain views, wrap-around deck, natural landscaping, a barbecue area, and a horseshoe pit. The lot offers ample space for RV parking, and Florida River Estates residents enjoy access to community ponds and the option for horses. Recent upgrades, completed in April 2026, include a new roof and fascia, providing peace of mind for years to come. Other recent upgrades in the last year include: new water softener plumbed, new Navien firetube hot water boiler, and a water booster pump to increase the flow rate. The sewer line for the septic system was also replaced in early 2026. The property is also supported by a central water system and strong internet service. This is Colorado living at its best—private, scenic, and conveniently close to town. NOTE: SELLERS ARE OFFERING AN $11,000 CREDIT TO BUYERS for exterior deck re-staining / re-painting commensurate with recent bid for this work.
