New Listing - Incredible Animas Valley Views from the House & Hot Tub!

This newly listed modern chalet home is perched high above the Animas Valley. Enjoy some of the best views in Durango, multiple hiking trails nearby, and numerous wildlife that pass by or fly over the property. This unique location allows you to feel like you are far from town, amidst the forest, red cliffs, with the option to watch the valley happenings below - including the Durango Silverton Narrow Gauge Train and the North Pole in November/December. We are just 10 minutes to downtown Durango, 25 minutes to the lifts at Purgatory, and down the road from Durango Hot Springs ~ 4 miles. Although, you can also enjoy a soak in the hot tub located on the expansive deck. This is a perfect location to relax and recharge while having easy access to all of the sights and activities of the Durango Area and the breathtaking San Juan Mountains.
