Wow, a rare chance to live in a custom natural built home with natural light surrounded by nature. This unique opportunity allows for you to live and thrive in an intentional communuty just 18 miles from Durango. The community has a large garden, wood shop, tennis/pickle ball court, 7 miles of hiking and biking trails, and a large community home where meals, gatherings, retreats, and parties are held. There is even space for visiting friends and relatives to stay in the guest rooms, and additional laundry facilities and a clothesline outside. Young children and adults love the central location of the SS Ponderosa, a shiplike structure to play, explore, and climb in the heart of the community. This spectacular home is at the end of the lane, affording an amazing enclave of nature on all three sides with flowers, patios, gardens, and outdoor dining. It includes drip irrigation, fruit trees, and a gardening shed. Once you enter into this straw clay timber frame home, the immediate sense of peace is evident. Because of the 1 ft thick walls, the home is cool in the summer and warm in the winter. There are 3 bedrooms (1 is currently being used as an office) and 2 baths, slate and cork flooring and earth plaster walls that add to the feeling of living outdoors inside. Quiet, natural beauty abounds with streaming natural light entering the house adding to the bright light interior. The master bedroom, bath, office are on the west side. The secondary bedroom, office and bath are on the opposite side of the house providing privacy and a sense of space. The price includes new countertops, new cork flooring and 2 carports deeded separately. The outside boasts several gardens and a dining area on a flagstone patio. Other amenities on site include a hot tub, a pickle ball/tennis court, workshop, garden, green house and yurt.
