This lovely log home sits on 3 beautiful and private acres overlooking mountains and meadows, and offers the perfect blend of indoor and outdoor living. The home is located in the Rafter J Subdivision, which is only 12 minutes to downtown Durango. The home sits right outside the subdivision boundary, named OKeefe Subdivsion, and does not belong to the Rafter J HOA, so there are no dues or covenants. Step inside, where the main floor houses the kitchen, private dining, kitchen bar, living room, office, cozy library, 1.75 bath, and utility room with shower. The kitchen has hardwood floors, granite counter tops, lots of cabinet space, and a built-in wine cooler. The living room has high vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, two sliding glass doors leading to the outside decks and yard, and a Pellet Stove. Step upstairs to the upper floor to a loft overlooking the living room, full bath, a large Master bedroom, and additional bedrooms. The finished basement includes a fun great room, and a separate storage room. Additional storage space can be found in the stand-up attic and large garden shed. Ready to head outside to enjoy your beautiful surroundings? Enjoy the 3/4 wraparound deck, offering great views of the area, a place to enjoy your morning coffee, and entertain friends and family. Step out to a fenced patio area, Terracotta outdoor fireplace, and plenty of room for children and dogs to safely run and play. And for added delight, enjoy the hot tub, in-ground pool, and wood burning sauna, just steps away from your patio! What a perfect opportunity to be in the pines with lots of privacy and yet close to town.
