134 Chapman Ln Durango, CO 81301

134 Chapman Drive is a must-see, exceptional, and rare offering. This unique offering includes the combined sale of two separate parcels spanning over 19 acres, with lake access directly adjoining BLM land, ensuring remarkable privacy while enjoying the freedom of no HOA. Experience an exclusive lifestyle within Durango’s coveted Turtle Lake enclave at the base of Animas Mountain. Private lake access featuring docks, boat storage, and a covered, screened-in patio at the water’s edge, ideal for sunset gatherings or quiet mornings with coffee in hand. From your private floating dock, paddle board, canoe, or kayak alongside the painted turtles that give this naturally aging lake its name. This serene setting feels worlds away, yet remains just minutes from town. Here, luxury meets the simplicity of mountain living. Nestled among the oaks, the pre-inspected log and timber-frame home, built in 1988, spans approximately 2,526 square feet. It offers three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a refined blend of classic log construction and artisan timber framing. Reclaimed beams add warmth and character throughout. Walnut floors anchor the main level, where a welcoming living space is framed by a wall of windows capturing stunning lake views and sunsets over Turtle Lake, with Perins Peak in the distance. The kitchen is both elegant and functional, featuring custom walnut and cherry cabinetry, soft-close hardware, and striking Iranian granite countertops. Upstairs, a light-filled loft provides an ideal office or flex space with elevated lake views. The primary suite features pine flooring, an en suite bath, and peaceful treetop vistas. The lower level offers additional potential for an additional bedroom, home office, or flexible living space. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with an expansive New Trex deck and pergola overlooking the lake, a hot tub for star-filled evenings, and thoughtfully designed landscaping with fire mitigation in mind. Additional features include a one-car attached garage, a two-car RV carport, and a three-car carport with an integrated drainage system that feeds into rain barrels. A productive raised-bed garden and solar panels further enhance the property’s functionality and sustainability. This is more than a home, it’s a legacy property: a private retreat defined by nature, comfort, and understated luxury, all within close proximity to Durango’s schools, trails, parks, and vibrant downtown.
