Welcome to your private mountain oasis in Southwest Colorado. If you're looking for seclusion, your own pond fed by South Fork Texas Creek, a manicured lawn, and scenic wooded vistas, then this home is a must-see! This custom-built home has been meticulously maintained by its original owner with this being the first time it is offered for sale. Step inside and you'll be greeted by a spacious great room with vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a stone fireplace adorned with lichen rock harvested from the property. The main level primary suite provides access to a secluded patio and hot tub, while the large covered front porch overlooks a beautiful, creek-fed pond shaded by a massive willow tree. The lush, green lawn is equipped with an irrigation system sourced from the pond, while a row of willow bushes along the creek ensures privacy from the road. Other notable amenities include a 1,300+ square foot attached garage accommodating 3-4 vehicles comfortably (with lifts and machinery available for negotiation), a 100-yard rifle scoping range directed at the hillside, a built-in safe, a two-person sauna adjacent to the mud/laundry room, and a paved and fenced dog-run area with built-in dog house. LOCATION: Conveniently located less than a quarter-mile off paved CR 501, this home is just 10-15 minutes from Bayfield or Vallecito Reservoir, 30 minutes from downtown Durango, and within easy reach of Purgatory Ski Resort, Wolf Creek, Mesa Verde National Park, and Navajo Dam State Park.
