Rancho Durango

Homes for sale in Rancho Durango, Durango CO feature properties on exceptionally large lots ranging from 38 to 76+ acres within a very rural subdivision offering mountain and valley views across rolling hills covered with piñon and sage in an arid landscape setting at 6,479 feet elevation. This diverse residential community showcases an eclectic mix of housing from 620 to 2,200 square feet including single-wide mobile homes, cabins, adobe-style homes, and stick-built residences with minimal covenants allowing maximum property flexibility and individual expression. The subdivision provides excellent wildlife habitat for deer, elk, wild turkey, and occasional bears, with individual septic systems and propane service plus varying water access from wells or cisterns, though some lots may have challenging water production requiring careful due diligence. Located 31 minutes from downtown Durango with gas company-maintained roads and no HOA restrictions, Rancho Durango attracts buyers seeking affordable large acreage living with mountain views and excellent access for families with members working in both the Farmington/Aztec area and Durango, while requiring thorough investigation of access, utilities, and gas well considerations.
