This extraordinary mountain estate is positioned on 9.5 acres within a private, gated community. It is enveloped by the national forest on two sides, offering breathtaking views of Engineer Mountain in the distance and featuring a picturesque natural mountain pond at the back. A delightful year-round creek meanders through the property, and a majestic seasonal waterfall near the master suite adds to the enchanting ambiance. The location provides a perfect balance of seclusion within an idyllic setting of aspens and pines, while still being conveniently located just 4 miles from Purgatory Ski Resort and a short drive from both Durango and Silverton. This recently remodeled home boasts upscale finishes and is furnished with first-class amenities. The spacious master suite is adorned with a cozy fireplace and a lavish bathroom featuring a large shower and a luxurious soaking tub.

With the availability of Starlink internet, you can seamlessly work remotely or indulge in streaming entertainment. The main level further offers a balcony with a hot tub, providing captivating vistas of the national forest and the property's private acreage. The layout of 2 bedrooms upstairs and 2 downstairs makes it ideal for accommodating multiple families.

Additionally, there's a bonus room with a queen bed and two twins. The lower level also encompasses a separate living space, kitchen, media room, and a fully equipped gym. Set amidst a network of hiking trails and situated along the renowned Mill Creek, this property truly embodies the spirit of an enchanted forest hideaway.

Property home and area was so beautiful from every room in the enormous home!
The access to the 2 large patios was so welcoming and relaxing. This property was great for separating families with children from the main floor. Plenty of kitchen space and dining space for family of 12. Location was away from town so was very peaceful and secluded for relaxing. We all loved it!!

Gorgeous property, easily accessible, close to Purgatory resort, plenty of space and tables and chairs for large groups multiple families! Beautiful view off the incredible back patios both lower and balcony, loved sitting in hot tub on balcony and watch the children play in the snow! Owner has sleds and shovels in garage to use for snow play, along with a ping pong table and foosball table and media room for kids! Everyone wants to come back next year, thank you to the owners for having our family and friends!

There were 14 of us ranging from 84 to 9 years old. The layout of the house was perfect for us. Everything was exactly as described. The house was equipped with all the necessities for our 6 day trip.
