Durango, Colorado, 81301

Nestled in the breathtaking Animas Valley just 10 minutes north of downtown Durango, this exceptional equestrian property offers a rare combination of world-class horse facilities, fertile irrigated pastures, and approximately 1,000 feet of coveted Animas River frontage, complete with a seasonal beach area perfect for cooling down horses on warm Colorado afternoons. Spanning 37.02 fully fenced acres, the property is thoughtfully designed for serious equestrians and working ranches alike. Sixteen individual paddocks, each equipped with loafing sheds and heated automatic water troughs, ensure year-round comfort for your herd. Four rotational pastures with welded pipe fencing and flood/sprinkler irrigation round out a setup built for efficient, sustainable horse management. Two premier barns anchor the operation. The Cliff Barn features 12 fully enclosed stalls alongside wash stalls, a tack room, office, bathroom, and ample storage, everything needed to run a professional program. The River Barn adds 8 additional stalls with its own wash stall and tack room, offering flexible options for boarding, breeding, or training. Training and riding facilities are equally impressive, with a half-acre outdoor arena enclosed by vinyl fencing and a quarter-acre indoor arena featuring dual doors, ceiling fans, and excellent ventilation for year-round use. Water is the lifeblood of any Colorado ranch, and this property delivers. Twelve Class A shares from the Animas Valley Ditch & Water Co., a holding pond, gated pipe system, and sprinkler pods provide reliable, senior water rights to keep pastures lush through the growing season. Rounding out the improvements are a well appointed 3 bed 2 bath home, heated equipment shop with a large carport and three bays for all your machinery needs, and partially enclosed hay barn oriented south for optimal weather protection and forage drying. Properties of this caliber, combining premier equestrian infrastructure, productive irrigated acreage, and irreplaceable Animas River frontage in one of Southwest Colorado's most scenic valleys, rarely come to market.
