161 Kiva Rd, Durango, CO 81303

Lovely private setting just minutes from town with Animas River access. This beautiful 3-bedroom/2-bathroom, single level home is set on 12+ acres and features stunning views of the Animas. The moment you step inside this thoughtfully designed home you feel enveloped by a sense of tranquility. Every room capitalizes on natural lighting. Clerestory windows catch the morning light. Numerous windows are positioned for sun exposure during the cool winter months and avoiding direct sunlight during those hot summer days. Large picture windows in the dining area and living room look down on lush cottonwood trees lining the meandering bends of the Animas River. Enjoy sweeping southern valley views while preparing dinner or lounging on the couch. The kitchen features GE stainless appliances, rich cherry cabinets, and quartz counters. The living room has a gas stove, perfect for chilly winter nights relaxing around the house. Beautiful engineered hardwood floors, richly detailed maple trim, and heavy wood doors are just a few of the testaments to the homeowners’ attention to detail in their home design. Featuring hot water baseboard throughout, and a mini-split air conditioning system, the home was designed for maximum energy efficiency. The attached 3 car insulated garage offers plenty of space for cars and toys, and the 25' X 12’ insulated workshop off the back promises the perfect space for woodworking or an art studio. Step outside the home and enjoy all that south Durango has to offer. Enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail on the patio that overlooks the river. The xeriscaping surrounding the house features beautiful rockwork that flows into the natural landscape of cacti and juniper trees. The homeowners have created a walking path that weaves through the property, and the Adobe Cliffs subdivision grants members an exclusive river easement for walking and fishing, approximately 900 feet of river bank. To top it all off, this little oasis is only minutes from City limits.
