Discover the possibilities on this beautiful 4-acre property in the desirable Rafter J area, just 15 minutes from downtown Durango and only a few miles from Lake Nighthorse. Offering a peaceful setting with a combination of level terrain and gently sloping areas, this property provides the perfect canvas for your dream home or mountain retreat. Improvements already in place include electricity on the property, a permitted septic system approved for a 3-bedroom home, and an existing foundation that may accommodate a new build or modular home. A 1,000-square-foot Quonset hut offers excellent storage or workshop space, while a chicken coop and dog run add to the property's versatility and country charm (both could use a little TLC). Water taps may be available through Lake Durango Water Authority; buyers are encouraged to verify availability and costs. With room to spread out and endless possibilities, this property is ideal for those seeking privacy, convenience, and the opportunity to create something truly special in Southwest Colorado.
