About This Lot

Your Dream Durango Lifestyle Awaits Imagine waking up to breathtaking views and stepping out your back door directly onto one of Durango's most beloved trail systems. This extraordinary 17-acre property offers the ultimate Colorado lifestyle—where natural beauty, privacy, dark nighttime skies, and convenience converge on one of the very last remaining unbuilt lots in the prestigious Horse Gulch subdivision. Protected by a wildlife conservation easement, this private sanctuary features a generous 4.45-acre building envelope perfectly positioned with southern exposure for warmth, light, and stunning year-round vistas. Bordering the protected City of Durango Horse Gulch Trail system to the west, you are guaranteed access to open space, unmatched privacy, and front-row sunset views. You can easily bike or walk straight into town, yet the setting feels pristine, quiet, and deeply historic, featuring a large unexcavated kiva. Tucked at the end of a quiet road and surrounded by beautiful custom homes, you are never far from everything Durango has to offer—downtown dining and shopping, Mercy Regional Medical Center, and the La Plata County Airport are all just minutes away. Opportunities like this are rare. Turnkey, Shovel-Ready Opportunity — Skip the Design Delay! The sellers were ready to break ground on the construction of their home when their plans changed, offering an incredible head start for a buyer to step right in and begin building immediately: The Design: Custom plans for a 3,070 SF home featuring 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a dedicated office.The floor plan includes a 2-car garage in addition to an extra-high bay designed for camper vehicles, as well as an enclosed dog run. Floor plans are attached and ready to review. Permits & Infrastructure: Active permits with La Plata County (Permit #AP20260473). Includes a full topographic survey, soils report, septic system design, and an already installed shared well. Save months of time and expense bypassing the preliminary architectural and county approval process, or bring your own custom vision to personalize this rare parcel.
