Surrounded by towering Ponderosa pines and stands of Gamble oak, this 5-acre property captures the spirit of Colorado living — quiet, natural, and full of potential. Gentle terrain, scattered clearings, and sneaker views of the La Plata Mountains create a setting that feels private yet connected to everything Durango has to offer. The property already includes a water tap and 2-bedroom septic system, setting the stage for your vision. An existing structure remains on site and is ready for removal, offering a clean slate for your dream home, modern cabin, or mountain retreat. Located just minutes from downtown Durango, you’ll enjoy the perfect blend of convenience and seclusion — with Lake Nighthorse less than 10 minutes away for boating, paddleboarding, and fishing, and endless nearby trails amongst Durango's open space and the San Juan Mts for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Whether you’re looking to build your full-time residence or a peaceful getaway, this property offers the rare combination of infrastructure, setting, and location that makes building in Southwest Colorado both simple and inspiring. Bring your imagination and make this beautiful piece of the Rockies your own.
