215 Legends Dr, Durango, CO 81301

What Legends Are Made Of. Simply Elegant. This 5BR/3.5BA 3106SF modern farmhouse encapsulates the true beauty of its surroundings unlike any other. A modest exterior greets you and surprises with unique finishes from the moment you enter. The expansive views are the showcase here. Light and airy Moroccan plaster and locally milled ship-lap blend with modern touches of steel and hand-troweled concrete to create a sense of balance that comes from texture creating a warmth without feeling heavy or dark. Panoramic windows bring the 300-degree view into this home from almost every room and the set-back lot, unique to this neighborhood, allows for privacy that is almost impossible to find only a few miles from town. The floor plan is thoughtfully designed to be open but maintains a sense of formality leaving every square foot purposeful and useful. Outside a wrap-around deck maximizes your sweeping views and extends your main living areas and kitchen through dual pass-through windows and solid alder doors. A master suite on the main with large deck facing 22 acres of private BLM and views of the La Plata Mountains gives its new owner the sanctuary they deserve. Kids or guests enjoy their own upper level complete with two matching bedrooms, common space, full bath and generous storage/play closet. The terrace level includes two bedrooms, living space, kitchenette and 3/4 bath. A private entrance and the same great views make this level an ideal space for guests, MIL, office, ‘man cave’, or long-term rental unit. Designer tile, radiant in-floor heat, reclaimed beams, local artisan finishes, and many other unique touches give this home a little something extra you can’t find anywhere else. Great passive solar design, south-facing driveway, close to town, school zoning, and neighborhood with amenities (city sewer, water, natural gas and stocked pond) give the location an edge above the rest. Come see why this home and its location make for an unbeatable combination! Expand your opportunity by combining this property with the adjacent .5 acres currently for sale for an impressive 2-acre compound which would allow for another dwelling unit, income property, or further secured privacy.
