Description

Development opportunity minutes from downtown Durango. So many options for this double lot, including those who need a warehouse and a home close to town. These two parcels––one 2.8 acres, and the back lot another 3 acres––with paved access and wooded privacy from the road, come with two Loma Linda Sanitation sewer taps, a purportedly great well, a natural gas line, and fiber optic at the road. There are numerous building sites, with the ones on the east lot enjoying views of the La Platas. There's...Development opportunity minutes from downtown Durango.

There are numerous building sites, with the ones on the east lot enjoying views of the La Platas. There's a fully insulated garage on the property to which no value has been given, but it is still good enough to house vehicles or whatever else you need prior to or while building. And no HOA, so come with all your ideas and make them happen!
