Farraday Neighborhood, Durango CO – Homes & Land

Farraday is a rural neighborhood in Durango, Colorado, located at approximately 6,945 feet in elevation. The area features rolling terrain with vegetation primarily consisting of Piñon and Juniper trees, along with some Ponderosa pines. Homes sit on larger parcels ranging from about 4.6 to 9.4 acres, creating a low-density residential setting with a mix of on-site stick-built homes and modular homes.

What to Expect

Roads within Farraday are gravel and maintained by the homeowners association. Gas service is not provided through a utility provider, so properties rely on bottled propane. Water is obtained through private wells, and homes require individual septic systems. The school bus does not pick up directly within the subdivision but stops at the entrance to nearby Sundance Hills along County Road 510. The area is located within a region of La Plata County where oil and gas development may occur, which may require additional due diligence during the purchasing process.

Lifestyle

Farraday offers a rural residential environment with larger acreage properties and access to public lands that adjoin portions of the subdivision. The setting includes natural vegetation and open terrain, and wildlife such as deer, elk, turkey, and fox are occasionally seen in the area.
