3900 County Road 250

At the relatively low elevation of 6,680 feet on prized County Road 250 this log home nestled against the impressive awe inspiring crimson cliffs grants you privacy in every direction. Meanwhile your tranquil oasis is only minutes away to the conveniences of downtown Durango's vibrant life of dining, shopping and entertainment. Perched on almost five acres sits a 2,707 sq.ft. log home built by Ron Yeager in 1991. The walkway from the large parking area in front of the home brings you to the wood deck and entrance to this spacious log home, which is "a diamond in the rough" being sold in its present condition, yet offering a great opportunity for your customization. As you enter, you'll find the living area adorned with a wall of windows. Also, you will notice a beautiful fireplace encasing a new wood burning stove. Custom solid wood furnishings designed for this home will stand the test of time and colorful stained glass lighting fixtures light up the living space. From the living area moving up the grand staircase, you can take in the ever increasing views of the Animas Valley or the dark night constellations, as you retreat to your bedroom. Otherwise, comfortably sleep in your bedroom on the main floor. Additionally, there is an abundance of more ground floor living space for utility, comfort and easy living throughout the house. Leaving the spacious indoor living, enjoy outdoor sitting areas, walkways, large boulders, pioneer artifacts, various flowering plants, and the natural evergreens. There you will feel cool mountain breezes, catch views of the Animas River and marvel at the abundant wildlife. You can sit in quiet contemplation to marvel to think this spacious log home and enormous slice of private nature nestled within an enclave is all yours. As you wander around your yard on a sunny morning feel the joy, as you live in awe of your dream life every single day. Departing from your two car garage or carport you merge into a neighboring drive, which provides a safety buffer from County Road 250. You can also easily engage in the abundance of outdoor recreation close by in every direction, such as hiking up Halflin Trail stretching to the top of Missionary Ridge, stand-up paddle boarding (SUP) at Oxbow Park across the Animas River, golfing and court sports at Dalton Ranch, rejuvenating at Durango Hot Springs, skiing at Purgatory Ski Resort and cycling out your door on the country road of County Road 250 to Baker's Bridge. Here you might join cliff jumpers into the celadon-colored water of the Animas River or just sunbathe and wade. Continuing a little further up the road, you can drive to perhaps some of the most beautiful mountains in the world on the famed Million Dollar Highway. Be inspired by the year round opportunities and the glories of each season living in the Animas River Valley of Durango, Colorado. This exceptional property is a rare opportunity to own two separately deeded adjoining parcels with a jewel in the making, encompassing views and proximity to everything you need.
