Property Description

Set on a private one-acre homesite in the coveted Falls Creek Ranch community, this architecturally distinctive 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence offers 3,059 square feet of thoughtfully designed mountain living framed by sweeping valley views and layered San Juan horizons. Crafted with intention and artistry, the home showcases custom oak beams, dovetail trim work, and solid hardwood floors, creating a warm yet refined mountain aesthetic. The east-facing sunroom, warmed by in-floor radiant heat and highlighted by a custom stained-glass front door, functions as a year-round conservatory filled with natural light and tranquil forest views. The vaulted living room is both inviting and expansive, featuring a high-efficiency fireplace insert, rich oak flooring, and walls of glass that open to a composite deck built with heavy beam construction—an exceptional setting for sunset gatherings, wildlife watching, and peaceful Colorado mornings. The kitchen blends beauty and function with custom cabinetry by San Juan Trimworks, granite tile countertops, a tumbled travertine backsplash, center island seating, wall oven, a 5-burner gas cooktop, warming drawer, Fisher & Paykel double-drawer dishwasher system, appliance garage, and abundant pull-out storage, while radiant in-floor heat continues through the kitchen and mudroom for everyday comfort. A flexible main-level bedroom with custom Murphy bed and adjacent powder bath offers ideal space for guests or a home office, and the thoughtfully designed mudroom and laundry area feature extensive built-ins and direct access to the heated, finished three-car garage. Upstairs, the private primary retreat captures treetop views and offers generous closet space along with a beautifully remodeled ensuite bath featuring slate finishes, a dual-head steam shower, and custom cabinetry. The walkout lower level expands the living space with a spacious family room anchored by a high-efficiency wood stove, a fully remodeled guest suite, wine cellar, and extensive storage—perfect for extended stays or multi-generational living. Modern efficiencies include owned solar panels installed in 2025, a high-efficiency wall-mounted boiler providing radiant heat and hot water, ductless heat pump with air conditioning, Hurd double-pane windows with wood interiors, whole-home surge protection, water softener with automatic leak-detection shutoff, fire-resistant cement plank siding, heated gutters and completed wildfire mitigation for added peace of mind. Exterior enhancements include a resurfaced and stamped driveway, insulated garage doors with tempered glass, raised garden beds with fencing, a machine shed and wood shed with metal roofs, and a recirculating waterfall feature that enhances the natural setting. Located within the nearly 940-acre Falls Creek Ranch enclave—bordered by the San Juan National Forest—residents enjoy private lake access, tennis court, equestrian facilities, a community garden, fishing rights, maintained roads, and miles of scenic trails. Offering privacy without isolation and recreation without compromise, this is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously maintained mountain retreat where craftsmanship, efficiency, and lifestyle come together just minutes from historic downtown Durango.
