Property Description

Build your custom Colorado sanctuary on this 35.16-acre parcel in the premier, gated community of Durango Ridge Ranch â?? one of just 38 exclusive ~35-acre parcels spanning over 1,200 acres. Panoramic views of the La Plata Mountains, Twin Buttes, and Perins Peak surround the property. Mature Ponderosa Pines offer privacy and natural beauty, and the seasonal Sheep Springs creek adds to the setting's character. Sitting at approximately 7,850 feet the building site is open, level, and build-ready. Underground electric runs to the lot line; a domestic well (cistern or combination) and septic system will be required for build. Durango Ridge Ranch borders Perins Peak State Wildlife Area and has private trail access for hiking, hunting, and horseback riding. The subdivision allows up to seven large animals and permits a barn. Covenants call for site-built homes of at least 1,500 square feet. An active agricultural grazing lease keeps annual property taxes low, and HOA dues cover gate, mailbox, trash, and road maintenance with snow removal. All utilities are underground for unobstructed views, and the community holds a Firewise Community Award. A variety of wildlife can be regularly seen on the property. Enjoy true mountain tranquility just 10 minutes from historic downtown Durango, with Hesperus Ski Hill and La Plata Canyon nearby for year-round recreation. A rare opportunity to build something uniquely yours in one of southwest Colorado's most sought-after rural communities.
