Welcome to Ponderosa Pines, a gated piece of paradise with magnificent views of the La Plata Mountains! This custom built 4 bedroom 4 bath home is nestled on 16 acres of towering pine trees, does not have an HOA, and is less than 15 minutes from downtown Durango. Not included in the square footage for this listing is a gorgeous 2-bedroom 1 bath recently remodeled guest quarters above the garage which is perfect for guests to have their own private space. There is a fenced and irrigated garden, a garden shed and greenhouse, a 2-stall barn and tack room, 2 pastures with electric fencing, a spectacular in-ground swimming pool surrounded by a lovely stone deck, a new hot tub, and a tree house that features architectural elements from the original homestead that graced this property. The car enthusiast will love the 2 car attached garage and the 60'x30' 3 car detached garage/workshop with an RV bay and a separate room that the current owners use as a large home gym. The massive back deck is the perfect place to relax with your morning coffee, to host cookouts, or to enjoy the incredible mountain views and dark sky for stargazing. The property has a long circular paved driveway and there are hiking trails throughout.
