Experience the pinnacle of Durango Mountain living at this custom-built residence featuring 3,936 square feet with four bedrooms (two en-suites), five bathrooms (three full and two half), and a remarkable 1,936 square feet heated six-car garage with lift potential. A turn-key, fully furnished home (with a few exclusions), it blends timeless architecture, superior construction, and luxurious comfort in a serene natural setting. Designed by renowned architect Thomas Umbhau of Bauen Group, LLC and built by Buena Vista Builders, this home exemplifies uncompromising craftsmanship and attention to every detail. Perfectly situated on 1.1 wooded acres in the prestigious Edgemont Highlands community, this property captures the best of Durango living. Every element of this home reflects quality and artistry. The dramatic great room showcases 23-foot vaulted ceilings with handcrafted exposed timber trusses and architectural steel tension rods, creating a breathtaking lodge-style atmosphere. Expansive windows frame forest views and fill the space with natural light, while a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with fan-assisted circulation anchors the living area. The white oak hardwood floors, custom alder trim, and meticulous finish carpentry highlight the precision of Buena Vista Builders’ workmanship. The gourmet kitchen is a showpiece of form and function, featuring a solid copper island countertop, leathered black granite surfaces, and knotty alder cabinetry built by Koch Doors Company in Seneca, Kansas. Top-of-the-line appliances include a GE Monogram cooktop and oven, Sharp microwave drawer, Bosch dishwasher, and GE Café refrigerator. Pull-out pantry cabinets, a wine rack, and a secondary refrigerator in the adjacent laundry room provide thoughtful convenience. A copper sink in the powder bath, a black walnut console crafted from family-farm wood, and a 1930s vintage chandelier from a Kansas theater lend distinctive warmth and story to the home’s design. The main-level primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with deck access, dual walk-in closets with built-ins, and a spa-inspired bath featuring radiant heated floors, dual vanities topped with leathered granite, a soaking tub with heated water jets, a walk-in shower with bench, bidet, and a custom stained-glass window reclaimed from a historic church. A private office with a barn door provides versatility for work or relaxation. Upstairs, a loft overlooks the grand living room and connects to three additional bedrooms, one with a private ensuite bath and two sharing a full bath. Each room captures serene woodland views, continuing the home’s warm, timeless aesthetic. The heated six-car garage is a car enthusiast’s dream, spanning 1,936 sq ft with 12-foot ceilings, 220V outlets ready for lifts, a half bath, painted and sealed floors with a trench drain, utility sink, and water faucet. Professionally installed air compressor system with wall-mounted regulator and moisture filter, connected to a retractable overhead hose reel for convenient use throughout the garage. The garage also features custom built-in cabinetry and a dedicated workbench area, ideal for organized storage, vehicle care, or hobby projects. Above, a finished loft with ceiling fan offers additional sleeping or recreation space. Additional highlights include two furnaces, two AC units, three heating zones, a whole-house humidifier, a ScaleBlaster Water Conditioner attached to the water heater, and a recirculating pump for instant hot water, plus a Rainbird drip irrigation system and a 6-inch concrete driveway. The covered decks with ambient lighting are ideal for entertaining, while the professionally landscaped yard and natural rock accents frame beautiful mountain and forest views. Offered fully furnished and move-in ready, this exceptional property balances rustic charm and refined des
