One special home located just north of Vallecito Lake. If you are looking for that one-of-a-kind property with live water, great views, privacy and San Juan National Forest access this is the place for you! This mountain modern home was masterfully built in 2016 by the owner/builder. Attention to detail and design is evident in this 1914 SF home. The home was designed to take advantage of the unobstructed Vallecito Lake views from the great room and the expansive decks. Large windows frame the southern and eastern sides of the home which bring the outdoors in. A wood burning fireplace in the living room is perfect to take the chill off in the cool spring mornings and keep the heating bills in check if you want to make this your full-time residence like the current owner. The kitchen is well-appointed with custom hickory cabinets, stainless steel appliances and granite countertops and bar seating. The great room has vaulted t&g pine ceilings giving it a classic mountain look. The large primary suite has a large walk-in closet, dual vanities and a walk-in tiled shower. Also, rounding out this level is a ½ bathroom for guest use and a large pantry. Downstairs features the second bedroom, a full bath, a large office (which could be a non-conforming 3rd bedroom), the laundry room and 1 car heated garage and workshop. The home has wood grain tile throughout for easy cleaning and maintenance. The tile is kept warm in the winter by the in floor radiant heat. Access to National Forest is right out the back door from a shared easement making this a great basecamp for hunting GMU 751 where Bull Elk Tags are issued over the counter and mule deer buck tags usually only take 2 to 3 preference points depending on the season. D Creek runs along the southern boundary of this parcel in your own little canyon and is a great flowing year-round creek with waterfalls and teaming with trout. The home is located less than 3 miles from the Vallecito Marina and a short 30-minute drive to Durango. The homeowners in this area banded together and installed an electric gate on Valley Heights Drive (private drive) creating even more privacy. No HOA or Covenants means short term rentals are allowed or you can make this your private year-round residence – either way you won’t be disappointed in this property.
