Property Details

La Plata River Ranch Welcome to La Plata River Ranch, a private mountain retreat set on 39.9 acres along both sides of the La Plata River, just 20 minutes from the heart of historic Durango. Offering year-round access, direct National Forest adjacency, and unmatched fly fishing opportunities right outside your door, this is a rare blend of wilderness and refined living. Crafted in a Mountain Modern style, the home spans 4,686 square feet across three levels, designed to embrace natural light, open space, and breathtaking views. The main floor features an open-concept living area with vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and oversized windows that frame the surrounding peaks and seasonal foliage. The kitchen combines custom wood cabinetry with high-end appliances and a generous island that anchors the space for gathering and entertaining. Just off the dining area, a fully enclosed, four-season porch with a gas fireplace and propane heater invites year-round enjoyment. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat — complete with its own fireplace, a soaking tub positioned to take in the views, a private laundry area, large walk-in closet, and a lofted office space overlooking the great room and forest beyond. Downstairs, the walk-out level offers two additional bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a large game room that doubles as a bunk room — with four built-in bunk beds and a custom wet bar, it’s designed to welcome both quiet weekends and lively family gatherings. This level opens directly to the backyard and river’s edge, making outdoor adventures seamless. For guests, caretakers, or income potential, a fully detached 1-bedroom / 1-bathroom apartment sits above the attached two-car garage. Complete with its own kitchen, living area, and private deck overlooking the river, it’s an ideal space for extended stays or flexible living. Additional property features include: -A detached shop with two oversized roll-up doors, concrete floors, and power -A lean-to structure for wood and equipment storage -An off-grid solar system with backup generator, and a grid-tie currently in progress, offering the choice of energy independence or traditional power -Mature trees, usable acreage, private trails, and gated access Whether you're fly fishing steps from your porch, hiking directly into the National Forest, or relaxing fireside in the enclosed porch as the sun sets over the canyon, La Plata River Ranch offers a lifestyle defined by freedom, privacy, and natural beauty. It’s more than a home — it’s a legacy property where modern comfort meets Colorado wilderness.
