Animas Valley location. Water rights, pond, orchard, and garden. Beautiful, custom home, plus shop building. This rare combination of property features creates a sublime opportunity for the knowledgeable buyer. The three bedroom, two bath, home with bonus room/office was constructed by a home building contractor as their own, personal home, with care and precision, as well as upgraded finishes and thoughtful design. The location of this residence is toward the north end of the Animas Valley offering a country setting less than 15 minutes from downtown Durango. The land, which includes mature fruit bearing trees, fenced, grassy lawn, pond and raised garden, is irrigated by a full share of water from the Animas Consolidated Ditch, one of the main waterways in the Valley. Privacy is elevated by a neighboring orchard on one side of the property and single-family homes on other sides. Wildlife commonly seen on and near this property are fox, deer, elk and bear, with ducks and other waterfowl frequently visiting the pond on the front lawn. The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad passes daily nearby. This home and land should be seen in person to fully take in the breadth of features and atmosphere offered as country living in close proximity to town.
