Equus
Durango, Colorado
Equus is a new development parcel in Durango’s amazing North County created from one of the most pristine and beautiful ranches in Durango. The 160 acre property, until recently, had been owned by the original family that homesteaded this one of a kind estate in the 1800’s. Equus, nestled in a spectacular high country valley, has some of the most intimate yet dramatic views in Southwest Colorado. This parcel affords incredible privacy, direct National Forest and Electra Lake access, and a preferred east side of HWY 550 location and is wellsituated for subdivision. Given the location of Equus, the parcel has dramatic and unique vistas of scenes that include Engineer Mountain, the Needle Mountains, Spud Mountain, Castle Rock, the Hermosa Cliffs, and Haviland Lake. While only minutes from the Durango Mountain Resort and beautiful downtown Durango, the entire property has incredible privacy surrounded by the multi-million acre National Forest, significantly limiting future development and preserving the area’s value, incredible views and wildlife. The land has attractive and diverse terrain that includes cliffs, rolling hills, open meadows, unique mountain wetlands, and aspen groves.

Equus would be an ideal Equestrian Ranch for an individual or possible facility for an arrangement of 3-4 ranchettes with common riding and stall facilities that could be constructed. Riding into the adjoining National forest provides a setting that is unmatched with access to thousands of acres of public lands and wilderness areas. Hunting, fishing & hiking right out your back door.
If further subdivision is desired, development is allowed with individual homeowners having the ability to complement their estates with a main house & guest house, greatly enhancing any future development. Working with leading area land planners, legal professionals and environmentalists, multiple conceptual site plans have been developed.The following pages depict options of a 14 estate subdivision, two 80 acre parcels and a multi family possible configuration.
