Description
Fishing anyone? Welcome to this spectacular location with lovely contemporary home along the Florida River south of Durango. This true oasis in the Florida River Valley has approximately 1000 feet of river frontage which includes land across the river, resulting in a tranquil setting in harmony with nature. The home is nestled between the hillside and the river, with a beautiful variety of trees and fragrant wisteria vines, which is a paradise for birds and wildlife. The open and bright one-level floorplan has windows on all sides that flood the home with light, while the covered front and back porches invite you to a cool place of refuge next to the gently flowing river, with views of the surrounding mountains. There are two true bedrooms with brand new ensuite bathrooms, plus a third room that works well as a third bedroom, office or den, and another flex space off the kitchen which works well as an office, dining room or even a play room for kids. The custom river rock fireplace is a centerpiece of the great room, which also features tall ceilings with wood beams and concrete floors throughout. The kitchen is a cook's dream, with plenty of counterspace, new appliances, and a new farm sink looking out to the river. The hummingbirds will love you if you fill the feeders. The primary bedroom suite includes a large walk-in closet with built-ins, sliding door to the covered porch (where you can hear the river) and elegant new 5-piece bath. The abundance of windows provides plentiful light and cross-breezes for a year-round comfortable residence, and there is a new mini-split system for heating and cooling along with radiant heating throughout the floors of this home. The oversized attached two-car garage has a side room for storage and a tiled dog bath, plus there is a detached two car garage/shop for plenty of storage for your recreational and hobby equipment or vehicles. On the mesa above the home is an upper pasture to this property (approx. 29 acres) for keeping animals or where a barn could be built. The combination of river-front and pasture makes this an ideal country property. Florida River Ranch is a gated community of large parcels in a hidden valley off Highway 550, where you can enjoy easy access along with a secluded setting.
