ENJOY THE VIDEO! Do you want OPTIONS? A Durango “Oasis” with a proven ability to pay for itself! Main House (now Airbnb), along with the Loft apartment above the Taj Garage…a 4-car garage combined with a 51-foot-long RV Parking. All of this sits on a mature and park-like, one-acre lot just steps outside Durango City Limits. The Main Home is comfortable, light and bright and features 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. The Loft apartment is spectacular with its vaulted ceilings and outdoor space, features a 1 bedroom plus office and 1 bath. The uniqueness of this property lies in the versatility it offers (in-law cottage, granny suite, or income), all on a secluded lot with no HOA, and 100% paved access! THE GUEST HOUSE: The Main house conversion into an Airbnb in 2018 has been very successful. As the Guests arrive, their mouths prop agape as they see the grandeur of their accommodations. Hundreds of the post-stay reviews attest to the relaxation and peacefulness the property offers. They love hearing the steam train whistle echoing between the cliffs! Their “private space” mostly faces away from the Owner-occupied Loft, so there’s not a sense of personal space crowding. The 2007 Constructed LOFT: From the vaulted ceilings in the Great Room, exit thru double sliding doors to the East facing deck that overlooks the Animas Valley and Red Rock Cliffs. Suspended from this amazing deck are the steel supports for the 17 flower planters…self-maintained by drip irrigation. The explosion of flower color, along with the red and tan cliffs in the background will be the scene of many BBQ’s with family & friends. This open concept floor plan with separate bedroom and office is designed for two to enjoy working from home. Exit the West facing bedroom, and step onto the porch featuring a delightful pergola with mature flowering vines. Slide into the hot tub and admire the colorful cliffs that are directly behind you. TAJ GARAGE: For anyone with toys, they will drool. The HUGE RV garage under the Loft (built in 2007) is 14’ Tall x 12’ Wide, and is 51’ deep. The super thick, insanely reinforced, and level floor is epoxy painted and sealed. There’s 50-amp RV service, water, sewer, and Sat tv connections. The adjacent four car garage has 2 floor drains to keep things tidy. The boiler supplies the in-slab heat for the garage, as well as the Loft upstairs. The entire garage space is also humidified, in order to keep your RV/vehicles upholstery and rubber parts from deteriorating. Many cabinets and benches will convey. The entire foundation was overbuilt, over insulated, and over protected against water migration. There is a 2nd large 2-bay garage (2018 construction) as well at the front of the property, large enough for a Sprinter type van and a boat/trailer! THE GROUNDS: You’ll own several of the tallest conifers in the Animas Valley, along with mature apple, peachcot, apricot, pear, willow, pine, ash, and chokecherry trees. Obsessive care has been taken to minimize maintenance. With the exception of a few plantings, the entire property (including the 5 raised bed vegetable gardens) is watered by drip, area, or lawn pop-up Rain Bird sprinklers. The system has 10 zones, and has been professionally designed, maintained, and winterized. Professionals have called this “the best landscaped area”, and “the best lawn” in Durango. As you walk the property, you are stuck by a sense of “what's next”? This does not happen by accident. In laying out the property, the Seller followed many of the Japanese arts that allow for playful curiosity...and cause a person to feel compelled to stroll around and investigate. See the Gazebo? Turn and you’ll find a secluded waterfall. Turn again and you’ll see the wide path leading up to…well you’ll have to see. Investigate the opportunity to own this unique, peaceful…and profitable Oasis just 7 minutes from downtown!
