Rafter J · La Plata County
Description
Set on 6.2 wooded acres just outside Durango, this distinctive contemporary home offers privacy, expansive La Plata Mountain views, no HOA, and quick access to Lake Nighthorse, approximately five minutes away. Inside, oversized windows, skylights, vaulted architectural elements, warm wood accents, and two wood-burning fireplaces bring light and character throughout the 2,560-square-foot multilevel floor plan. The kitchen features wood cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and generous storage, while the living and dining areas connect naturally to the surrounding decks and patios. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite includes a private balcony overlooking the wooded setting. The lower level is a standout feature, thoughtfully designed with a library, wine cellar, built-in bar, full bathroom, sunroom with wraparound seating, oversized windows, and a separate television and lounge area. Direct access from the lower terrace provides privacy and flexibility for guests, recreation, work, or additional sleeping space. Multiple decks, patios, a fire-pit area, and an outdoor checkerboard create inviting spaces to enjoy the mountain scenery and evening skies. Wildfire mitigation has been completed recently and over the past two years by Adaptive Wildfire Partnership. A metal roof, central air conditioning, covered carport, storage sheds, Lake Durango water, and septic system add practical year-round functionality. Worried about mountain living...worry less, there's a Generac Generator for unexpected outages, stay cool or warm!
