250 Becket Lake Drive

Durango, CO 81301

Experience the pinnacle of Durango living with this extraordinary 35-acre estate parcel in the prestigious, gated Celadon community—one of only six properties with exclusive access to the private, spring-fed Becket Lake. Perfectly situated between the vibrant heart of downtown Durango and the slopes of Purgatory Resort—each just 20 minutes away—this remarkable property offers a rare combination of convenience and complete seclusion. From its elevated vantage point, the land showcases unobstructed, panoramic views spanning both the North and South Animas Valleys, with the majestic peak of Engineer Mountain to the north and the tranquil waters of Becket Lake glimmering to the east. Multiple building sites allow flexibility to design your dream retreat—each offering its own breathtaking perspective of the surrounding alpine landscape. The property has been thoughtfully prepped for construction, with a roughed-in driveway and utility trench already in place leading to a preferred homesite overlooking the Animas Valley. Electric and natural gas are available at the property line, and a private well (tested at 3 GPM in 2019) is already installed. The current owners have collaborated with Tracy Reynolds of Reynolds Ash Architects to design their home (plans are available upon request), and with Brett Metz of Summit Custom Homes of Durango to build a luxury Colorado residence. The home builder once characterized this land as being "One of the prettiest properties he’s ever seen in all his years building in Durango." Celadon’s year-round, paved access roads are impeccably maintained by a full-time, on-site caretaker who oversees snow removal and property management, ensuring effortless access in all seasons. Becket Lake, which borders the property, offers exclusive opportunities for fishing, paddleboarding, or peaceful reflection amid pristine mountain beauty. Here, you can create a legacy estate that blends world-class mountain recreation with true tranquility—an unparalleled sanctuary where privacy meets proximity. With easy access to fine dining, cultural events, and endless outdoor adventures, this property offers not just a place to live but a lifestyle without compromise.
