99 River Road

Durango, CO 81301

This spectacular property is truly one-of-a-kind. Perched on the banks of the Florida River with nearly 1,700' of Florida River frontage, this custom-built home consists of three separate parcels totaling 17.5 acres. You will be hard-pressed to find anything that offers this much privacy while still being conveniently located just 15 minutes to historic downtown Durango. With the Florida River bordering the property on one side, and hundreds of acres of public lands on another side, there is no shortage of peace and tranquility once you have arrived home. The property was carefully planned and developed by the current owners, and consists of a single-level, 3,644 sf main home that was built in 2012, plus an additional 675 sf guest home. The main home exudes quality from the second you walk through the front door. The spacious entry greets your guests, and upon entering the main living space, your attention will immediately be drawn to the massive, arching wood beams and the floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with a natural stone hearth. Access to the expansive deck can be gained from the living area, and from the deck you will see and hear the calming sounds of the Florida River as it flows by. On one side of the living area, you will find two very comfortable guest bedrooms with a Jack & Jill bath, a library, and a wine closet. On the other side of the living area is the gourmet kitchen, which features soapstone countertops, Alder cabinetry, a commercial range/oven plus a separate baking oven, a farmhouse sink, and an abundance of storage including a walk-in pantry. Tucked behind the kitchen is the primary en-suite. With a gas fireplace, walk-in shower with a rain shower head and waterfall shower head, soaking tub, and a spacious walk-in closet, you may never want to leave your bedroom. There is also direct access from the primary suite onto the deck which overlooks the Florida River, just steps away. In the summer and fall months, sleeping with your windows open and listening to the river flow by will help give you the most restful night of sleep imaginable. Just off of the deck is a concrete pad which has been specifically prepped for a hot tub, where you can relax and listen to the sounds of nature and the river as it flows by. Additional spaces in the home include a craft room, exercise studio, and a man cave that is complete with a ventilation system for cigar enthusiasts. Perhaps the two most unique features of the home are the "penny" floor in the 3/4 bath located adjacent to the man cave, and a "hidden" storage room. In addition to the living spaces, there is also a separate pull-through garage that is perfect for boat or RV storage, and will park 3+ vehicles, or any other toys that you might have. A gardening room and 1/4 bath complete the garage's extensive list of features. Improvements have been made to the river directly in front of the home to encourage fish habitats, and there is access to nearly a mile of the Florida River through the subdivision which provides some of the best fly fishing in the area. Additionally, there are two large ponds in the neighborhood, one of which can be used for fishing, paddle boarding, swimming, and other recreation. All of this is located on well-maintained county roads just minutes from downtown Durango, where you can spend the day perusing the downtown shops and galleries before finishing your day with your favorite drink and a delicious meal at one of the many fine local downtown dining establishments. For added convenience, Meadows Market is just a few minutes away where you can grab kitchen staples, a cup of coffee and breakfast burrito, or a tasty sandwich for lunch. This property is truly a rare find, and opportunities like this are very few and far between, so don't miss your chance to own a truly special estate.
