Description
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.
