Remarkable property in enchanting Elk Stream Ranch Subdivision is a rare opportunity to own 35 acres of gorgeous, treed, mountainside land with appealing three bedroom, three bath, sunlit home. Expansive ridgetop and valley views compliment the open floor plan of the living area of this comfortable home. Engineered wood flooring, wood burning stove, raised deck off living room and another deck off dining room create an atmosphere of Colorado mountain living that is ready to share with lots of visitors. Truly a home that has been designed to bring the outdoors in. Welcoming entry foyer is only two steps up from driveway level---easy entry to this easy maintenance, stucco sided home. Large master suite on main level has its own deck, walk-in closet, tastefully tiled master bath, w/double sinks, soaking tub., glass walled shower. Second bedroom is also located on this level and has a three quarter bathroom right across the hall. The lower level of this home has a third bedroom, large laundry room/work area, big walk-in storage closet, easily accessed utility corner, and wonderful, unfinished 23'x23' walk-out bonus room just waiting for your own special needs and uses and finishes. (This large space square footage is NOT included in assessor's calculation of size). Under the living room deck and just outside this fabulous lower level room is a spacious covered outdoor storage area. Nearby are storage shed, propane tank and a little farther off is the septic system. Cleared perimeter around home is ready for landscaping and gardening should one desire. Over-sized detached three car garage is just a few steps from front door and has front and rear entry and room for yet another workshop or more storage AND a half bath! Wooded 35 acres is filled with Ponderosa, Pinion, Juniper, large Oaks, wild flowers, grasses and adjoins BLM to the back. More BLM at end of road and atop mountain ridge across the road. National Forest access is minutes away through the subdivision and across one road. One thing this property does not have is the noise of civilization! Quiet, quiet, quiet it is here except for the sounds of the wind and birds in the trees. Subdivision lots are all at least 35 acres and many have been developed with elegant mountain western homes and ranches. Two locked gates with cameras are passed through to get to this very private property, and there is a gate that can also be used for more security on the driveway. This is one of the prettiest locations in the county and is a horse lover's or mountain biker's/ hiker's dream come true! It is only 6 miles from the town of Mancos, 22 miles from the City of Durango. HOA maintains agricultural use of the ranch so taxes are extremely low. No more endless searching for this rare combination of natural beauty, large acreage, tranquility, picture-perfect surrounding homes, and convenient access to Durango and Mancos/Cortez.
