Description

Incredible mountain and valley views found in this expansive King Mountain Estate home, minutes from Durango and surrounded by natural amenities. As you approach the home, you'll discover the seclusion and privacy this 4.7 acre lot perched at the top of the road provides. Upon entry, you'll immediately be drawn in by the vaulted ceilings and airy space that fills with natural light. Straight ahead, doors to the back deck give full picture view to the eastern mountains and valleys for spectacular sunrises. Just inside, the kitchen is ready for all of your culinary needs featuring a Dacor oven and microwave, six burner stove, SubZero refrigerator, granite countertops, center island for extra cookspace, and an additional seating/desk/display island. It adjoins the living room with a rock surround wood burning fireplace and doors to the back deck for easy indoor/outdoor living. The formal dining room just steps away from the kitchen leads into the sunroom with doors to the front porch and side yard. The primary suite is on the main level with a gas fireplace, two closets, dual vanities, soaking tub, curbless shower, and back deck with direct access to the hot tub. Another bedroom/office flex space, full bath, and stairs to the loft area are on this side of the home. On the other side there are two bedrooms, a full bath, small kitchen, and living area that can be closed off from the main living area with private access from the porch. Downstairs, there's a similar kitchen and living room set up with an ensuite bedroom, oversized laundry room, walk out patio, and access to the three car garage with plenty of storage and workspace. The driveway provides lots of boat/RV/extra parking as well in addition to the detached two car garage as well as separate two car garage/workshop with electric. In the back, a 13'x10' heated studio with a deck is ideal for artists, yoga, or little on-site retreat. The property has an invisible dog fence, propane and is on septic and central water for convenience. Rafter J provides paved roads and a short drive to Lake Nighthorse, trails, and downtown Durango. This strategically planned, superbly built, and meticulously maintained property is calling you home.
