Surrounded by towering aspens and spruce trees in Durango’s North County less than 10 minutes from Purgatory Resort, this fully furnished stunning mountain-modern home offers privacy, spectacular views, and exceptional outdoor access. Situated on approximately 5.9 acres across three legal lots, the property backs directly to National Forest, creating a peaceful mountain setting with no HOA. Access easements from both Twilight and Castle Rock, adjacent developments to the north and south, provide convenient connectivity as you wind through beautiful alpine groves from either direction. The three legal lots may offer an opportunity for consolidation and property boundary adjustments to accommodate an additional home, subject to county approval. Buyers should verify feasibility and applicable requirements with the La Plata County Planning Department. Custom built in 2022, this three-bedroom, 1,884-square-foot residence combines contemporary mountain design with warm, inviting finishes. A welcoming entry bench and mudroom area provide a practical transition from the outdoors, while a lock-off storage area beneath the stairs offers additional versatility and secure storage. As you walk upstairs, you are greeted with a generous open-concept living area featuring vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows framing the expansive deck, surrounding forest, and mountain views beyond. A wood-burning fireplace creates a cozy gathering space for winter evenings. The beautifully appointed kitchen features quartz countertops, a custom tile backsplash, porcelain farmhouse sink, and Whirlpool fingerprint-resistant graphite appliances, including a five-burner range. A breakfast bar with pendant lighting opens seamlessly to the living area, while a separate breakfast nook provides additional space for casual dining. Large sliding doors open onto an expansive Trex deck with views stretching toward the Needles Mountain Range. Piped for a gas barbecue and partially covered over the living room and primary bedroom doors, the deck is designed for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing and taking in the mountain setting. The primary bedroom also opens directly to the oversized deck, creating an especially inviting connection to the outdoors. The private primary suite features a well-appointed bath with quartz countertops, double-sink vanity, curbless walk-in shower with beautiful tile surround, separate water closet, and built-in linen storage, along with a generous walk-in closet that includes a lock-off option for added flexibility. A conveniently located half bath serves the main living area, and a full-size washer and dryer are located in the hallway. Two additional bedrooms and a full guest bath on the entry level provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests. Additional features include an oversized garage with a separate storage room, forced-air heating, central air conditioning, a tankless hot water heater, 1,000-gallon propane tank, central water and sewer, additional well permit, and Starlink internet. With newer construction, generous acreage, direct National Forest adjacency, mountain views, no HOA, and an enviable location just minutes from Purgatory Resort and North County recreation, this property offers a rare opportunity to own a private mountain retreat in one of Durango’s most desirable outdoor settings. Whether envisioned as a full-time residence, second home, or rental property, this is a place designed to enjoy the mountains in every season.
