About This Home

As of February 2026

Welcome to this impeccably maintained custom home, designed and built by local professional architect Steve Gates, where high-end features meet Colorado charm. Enjoy stunning views of the La Plata Mountains from the spacious covered back patio as you sip your morning coffee or watch the colors fill the sky as the sun sets. Inside, the bright and open main living area is flooded with natural light thanks to large windows and a thoughtfully designed floor plan. You'll love the warmth of the wood-burning fireplace in the winter and the efficiency of in-floor radiant heat with individual thermostats in each room—plus central A/C for summer comfort. The kitchen features granite countertops, a double oven, a huge pantry with rolling shelves and an island with bar seating. With three bedrooms, a designated office with custom built-ins (could be a fourth bedroom), and an additional bonus room upstairs, there's space for everyone. The home offers abundant storage throughout, including an oversized attached two-car garage and a detached 14'x24' garage/shed with reinforced flooring—perfect for a vehicle, toys, or hobbies. Enjoy the convenience of TWO water sources (central water and a shared well), no HOA and no covenants, and easy winter access on well-maintained roads. This beautifully landscaped property features a thick, thriving lawn, numerous trees and shrubs and colorful flowers all connected to an efficient sprinkler and drip irrigation system. The home has been recently updated with fresh interior and exterior paint, along with a new roof and gutters—all less than a year old—offering peace of mind and move-in ready comfort. Please ask the agent for a full list of features and updates as there are too many to list! This home is ideally situated directly across from Fort Lewis Mesa Fire Station and less than half a mile from Fort Lewis Mesa Elementary School and the public library. Located just 25 minutes from Durango and 30 minutes from Farmington, this property offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and accessibility.
