About This Lot

An incredible opportunity awaits with this 40-acre mountain retreat, nestled beneath towering ponderosa pines and offering unmatched privacy and sweeping views—just 5 minutes from Durango. With direct highway access through a private gate and a shared driveway, the property is only 4 miles from downtown yet feels worlds away. Several building sites across the acreage provide flexibility to design your perfect mountain getaway. The seller is also offering an access easement through an adjacent 25-acre parcel, giving the new owner the ability to build on the ridge for panoramic La Plata Mountain views and immediate access to vast state and federal lands. A road and build site for this upper section have already been roughed in, saving you time and effort. Free from covenants, HOAs, or restrictions, this property allows you the freedom to create exactly what you envision—whether that’s constructing a private mountain estate or restoring the existing cabin. Large tracts of land this close to Durango are rare. Don’t miss your chance to own a truly one-of-a-kind property. The owner is continuing to add capital improvements to the property which may result in a price increase. The owners are beginning a subdivision process into two 20 acre parcels.
