Bring your vision to 1027 Meadow Road, a rare opportunity on a private, wooded 3.2-acre lot in the desirable Rafter J area of Durango. With no HOA and central water provided by the Lake Durango Water District, this property offers the space, privacy, and flexibility that are increasingly hard to find. The 3-bedroom, 3-bath home is filled with character, featuring high ceilings and a distinctive layout with plenty of potential to create something truly special. Surrounded by mature trees, the setting feels tucked away and peaceful while still offering convenient access to Durango. Offered as-is and priced with renovation in mind, this is an exciting opportunity for a contractor, investor, or buyer ready to take on a remodel and bring new life to a home with great bones and personality. NOTE: The property is being sold "AS IS" and may require a conditional use permit for the septic upon sale.
