About This Home

As of March 2025

Embrace the opportunity to own 2.3 forested acres, within 15 short minutes of the town of Durango! Located in the desirable Rafter J subdivision this 1566 square foot mountain home featuring 3 bedrooms and 1 1/2 baths is a contractor's dream! Bring this home up to date with your custom touches to suit you! Warm up on those chilly winter days by the woodstove in the living room with high vaulted ceilings. The kitchen, bath and two additional bedrooms are on the main level as well. One of the two bedrooms is unfinished and is a blank slate ready for your custom touches. Upstairs you will find a small loft and a bedroom with an ensuite 1/2 bathroom and access out onto a private deck. The laundry and additional storage can be found in the unfinished basement. The outdoor space consists of two spacious decks, a single car carport and an additional two car carport with an abundance of storage throughout. The property is served by the Lake Durango Water Authority and a new septic tank was just installed. With the right vision this place has an abundance of potential and is ready for its new owners.
