Durango, Purgatory, Colorado, United States
Major Price Reduction – Exceptional Opportunity in Durango's North Valley It's time for this property to become someone else's dream. The seller has reduced the price by $680,000 below the 2025 appraised value, creating an incredible opportunity for a buyer with vision. The property is currently move-in ready and includes a new septic system installed in 2025. The guest house is currently receiving new paint and flooring. Is there additional maintenance and cosmetic work that could be done? Absolutely. Like many log homes, the property experienced settling and some foundation movement over the years. The seller proactively hired an engineer, completed the recommended stabilization work, and received engineering sign-off. Have all cosmetic improvements been completed? No—and that's precisely where the opportunity lies. The next owner has the chance to customize and transform this estate into a true showpiece. The home is being offered as-is, and the substantial price reduction more than accounts for the necessary improvements while leaving significant upside and equity potential. The seller simply does not have the time to complete the remaining projects. Most personal belongings have been removed, and the property is ready for a normal closing timeline.
