About This Home
As of December 2024Welcome to 1241 Thoroughbred Road, a stunningly preserved ranch in southwest Colorado. Located in the Florida River Ranch just south of Durango, this 35-acre property features two beautiful homes discretely nestled in the private hillside. The luxurious main home and charming guest house both showcase meticulous attention to detail, high end finishes and the implementation of energy efficient construction methodologies and a PV Solar system that keeps wintertime heating affordable and summertime cooling just as efficient. The main house is large enough to house most families and the guest house can house your guest, caretakers, visitors or serve as a tremendous rental income option for long term tenants or extended stay traveling nurses. See Covenants for details. Situated upon a rim lot overlooking the Florida River Valley, the homes provide wide spanning views of the valley and river below and the cliffs behind, surrounded by unique boulders that create a quintessential Southwest Colorado dreamscape. The homes blend seamlessly with their surroundings, offering unparalleled privacy. The current owners purchased this beautiful home in November 2016, drawn by its custom craftsmanship and fine finishes and high quality construction. The main house features a mantel made from a log on the property, large custom doors, intricate ironwork on the fireplace, walkways, and signage. The kitchen is a chef's dream, equipped with an imported Aga stove, custom tiles with a water oak pattern matching the ironwork, a separate pantry with an extra freezer, and custom light fixtures. The natural brick, wood, and tile flooring throughout the house adds to its charm. Every room on the main floor has access to outdoor patios and plenty of natural light, enhancing the indoor-outdoor living experience. The living room, with its vaulted ceilings, is centered around an imported Rumford fireplace, renowned for its efficient heat and ambiance. The built-in indoor/outdoor sound system makes it perfect for entertaining. The master bedroom is bathed in natural light from numerous windows, offering an inviting outdoor feel. The master bath includes a soaking tub, separate shower, and an expansive walk-in closet. There is a large hobby room (or 3rd main level bedroom) with a private patio and an outdoor hot tub. The main house also has two more bedrooms and two full bathrooms, providing ample space for family and guests. A large 2-car garage is attached, and each room in the home offers outdoor access to enjoy the renowned Colorado nature. Solar panels on the southern-facing roof and central air conditioning in both homes ensure energy efficiency and comfort. The 1,000+ sq ft guest home, complete with a heated 2-car garage/shop and adjoining carport, adds tremendous function. This space features a brick walking path, brick patio, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a full kitchen with granite countertops, and an imported Aga range/oven. Like the main home, it also includes a built-in indoor/outdoor sound system. The current owners often enjoyed sunsets from the hot tub, sunsets from the swing along the rim and hikes on the ridges behind the house, where they viewed wildlife, including elk, deer, jackrabbits, foxes, coyotes, bears, bobcats, and a variety of birds. Located just south of Durango, Colorado, the property is conveniently close to world-class skiing at Purgatory Ski Resort (43 miles) and Hesperus Ski Resort (27 miles). Nearby, you’ll find mountain biking and hiking trails, and Navajo Reservoir is just 38 miles away for wakeboarding, fishing, and water skiing. Despite its privacy, the property is only 20 minutes from town and 35 minutes from Farmington, offering the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility.
