742 Hermosa Meadows Rd, Durango, CO 81301

Beautiful lot! From your south-facing back deck, you look out over the open space, then the Dalton Ranch Golf course, Red Cliffs, and the Animas River in the distance. This lovely lot, #38, is roughly 40% larger than others in The Cove, which will allow you to build a 20% bigger home than on the other Cove lots. Plus it is nestled in a primo corner of the cul-de-sac. It can accommodate a single or two story home, with the largest building envelope of 5500 sf. Minimum home size requirement of 1600 sf, with maximum of 2500 sf - and variances can be granted allowing up to roughly 2800 sf. House and garage can cover up to 50% of the lot size. This exquisite, small subdivision of only 42 lots, enjoy private Animas River access. Homeowners here have full use of the 11 acres of lush park with ponds on one side of the river and 24 acres on the other side of the river, ensuring no future building will happen across the water. Giant cottonwoods, up to 150’ tall, grace the subdivision and you’ll love the water rights which come with the annual HOA dues of only $500, allowing for lush lawns, gardening and waterscaping. Far enough off of Hwy 550 precludes any road noise, and PJ’s Gourmet Market, True Value Hardware and the Dalton Restaurant, golf, tennis, swim and workout facilities are right down the street. Just a ten minute drive up from town, and 15 minutes on up takes you to world class skiing at Purgatory. The ideal area for the active, outdoor enthusiast; you can walk over to the river for fishing, paddle boarding and other river sports! Central gas, water and electric to each lot line, with the water meter already installed. The low HOA fees cover the park and open space maintenance, exterior water rights, snowplowing and road maintenance. Secure this primo lot today!
