Acclaimed and exceptional architect Jon Pomeroy crafted this exquisite modern masterpiece as his personal residence in the north Animas River valley. Mr. Pomeroy is widely known and revered in the region for his ability to incorporate his modern aesthetic into the extraordinary natural settings of his homes. Never have we experienced a home that is more attuned to the beauty of its natural setting. Floor-to-ceiling glass invites the waterscape of the adjacent pond, as well as the vibrant trees and lush landscape into this residence, as if the natural world is every bit a part of the floor plan as the interiors. Cedar, Douglas fir and Aspen woods complement the glass and polished concrete elements of the interior finish. The north Animas River valley is home to Durango's most sought after residences, and views, as well as in the epicenter of all of the diverse recreational and other area attractions Durango is known for. Purgatory Ski area is only fifteen miles away, and downtown Durango is a mere ten miles, with plenty of attractions along the way in both directions. The home is built all on one-level, and each room takes full advantage of the opportunity to bring the pond and its concomitant landscape into clear and stunning view. Fixtures and appliances are of the highest quality and perfectly compliment the home's natural modern aesthetic. Attention to detail is paramount throughout this home, from the built-in art shelving in the entry to the custom wood ceiling design leading you down the hallway and into the expansive view from the living area, to the wet bar that can be concealed by a beautiful vertical grain pocket door, to the operable corner dining room window allowing for the peaceful sounds of the waterfall landscape features. The interior of this residence is high performing and designed to maximize efficiencies in heating by considerations of airflow, rooflines and the in-floor heating system. There are two bedrooms and two and half baths in the approximately 2000 sq ft main home on the pond with an attached 2-car oversized garage, and a 350 sq ft guest house with additional sleeping quarters, bathroom, and an extra garage a few steps away. This area is perfect for your guests, or perhaps an ideal third bedroom for an older child. It would also be a perfect home office or mediation retreat space. Rarely does a residence offer the combination of exceptional architectural design in concert with such a stunning natural location, and one in such high geographical demand as well.
