Durango Luxury Real Estate

Team Lorenz was recently hired to market a home built and designed by Robinson and Associates. This builder and architectural team has worked in the Durango area for almost 20 years and has been the creator of many luxury homes in Durango. If you are looking for a well planned and thought-out home with dramatic tall ceilings in an upscale development, then this 4200+ ft.² home may be just the right opportunity for you. Shenandoah Peaks is a 4 lot enclave of 35 acres located within the Shenandoah subdivision less than 10 minutes from downtown Durango. With the new Lake Nighthorse currently being filled, your home would be less than 2 miles from the entrance to the new Lake. Designed for boating, fishing, and other recreational uses, Lake Nighthorse should be filled to capacity within two years. Paved roads throughout Shenandoah and Shenandoah Peaks provide for easy year-round access.

Ease of living is the byword because the vast majority of the home is all on one level. You are immediately taken-in by the beautiful detail work driving up to the entrance. Large native rocks are stacked three and four high to provide a curved retaining wall, as well as planting areas. The large covered entry is flanked on each side by beautiful outdoor lighting. The three car garage is smartly finished with custom-made Cedar garage doors. Upon entering through the 8 foot door, you are greeted in every direction with a visual stimulus. The deep rich color of the hand distressed Birch engineered plank flooring is instantly recognized as high-quality. Looking up, the exposed wooden trusses span from the front of the house to the back and rest above the 12 foot window wall that looks nearly due South towards Black Ridge Mountain. To the right is a moss rock fireplace that, while very large, does not overpower the rooms and with its see-through design, services both the living room and the dining room with elegance and warmth. The kitchen is expansive (27 x 19) with extensive use of slab granite countertops as well as a Birch hardwood prep table island in the middle. If a luxury kitchen is what you're looking for, this is certainly it. Dual Viking convection ovens, a 42 inch Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, GE Profile dishwasher as well as microwave oven, and a Wolf gas 4 burner plus griddle Cook top… all finished in stainless steel, of course… help to make this kitchen a true chef's delight. Storage will never be a problem because of the walk-in pantry and an abundance of Alder cabinets with underneath accent lighting.

The master suite is on one end of the home to ensure privacy. Individual marble vessel basins on their own vanity table provide an elegant touch. The master even has its own patio for enjoying the view and relaxing. On the opposite end of the house are two bedrooms, either of which could easily be an office, if you would like. No doubt, you will spend many an evening outdoors. Off of the living room is a partially covered outdoor entertainment area with a wood burning fireplace that will certainly help extend the season.
The lower-level has a junior master suite and a large family room, complete with wet bar and wine cooler refrigerator, that could easily be used as the media center, pool table room, etc. A temperature controlled room on the north side of the home would make an ideal wine cellar.
