This is the newest home in Engineer Village, Durango Mountain Resort's single-family home community adjacent to over a million acres of national forest. The home was lovingly constructed by the owners of the award-winning Mantell-Hecathorn Builders, Inc. , one of Durango's finest custom home builders. Engineer Village is a short door-to-slope tram ride to Purgatory Mountain at Durango Mountain Resort, and features access to all of Durango Mountain Resort's amenities, including Durango Mountain Club's private restaurant and club lounge, family game room, year-round swimming pool, workout facility, spa, hot tub, and tennis courts. The community is connected by a series of trails to the surrounding San Juan National Forest, and it's 3 watershed areas with incredible hiking, backpacking, snowshoeing, Nordic skiing and fly fishing areas, all in the shadows of the incomparable Needles Mountains. This 3 ,320 square foot, 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home has a HERS rating of 46, which means it is 56% more efficient than a standard home. It is both Energy Star and EPA Indoor Air Quality Certified. This luxury home puts the green where it counts, in the form of real dollar savings on energy expenditures of a significant magnitude at ski area elevations and climate conditions. The views from the large picture windows and volumetric living areas are extraordinary and encompass the surrounding mountains and ski area. The home is constructed with a true Great Room, a spacious master suite, oversized two-car garage, and all of the custom finishes most sought after in our area including granite and silestone counters, hickory floors, and alder cabinets and doors. For those anticipating tired legs after long days on the slopes or out on the trails, the home was engineered and framed for an optional two-story elevator. This home is built with quality and efficiency as its predominant paradigm, and is intended to last generations with no corners cut. Come see why Mantell-Hecathorn's newest custom home is showpiece of innovative design and craftsmanship that takes full advantage of its incredible mountain setting. It's a home meant to share mountain family memories for many lifetimes to come.
