Domestic water is provided by a central water system and the homeowners association has irrigation water rights as well. A huge piece of open space land lies directly east of this property to help enhance that privacy. River Valley Estates is a private subdivision of higher-end homes behind a coded gate that offers lots of individual space as the lots all have carefully located building envelopes that enhance that feeling of “this is what I have been working hard to attain”. Don’t let the privacy fool you though as the location is less than 5 miles to the airport, less than 15 miles to downtown Durango, and less than 8 miles to Mercy Regional Hospital. The building envelop (see plat) is situated perfectly above the river so you can get better views while also looking down on your own personal stretch of river. River fishing can literally be out of your back door. You also get to fish within the subdivision up and down the Florida River. Have kids who want to do a 4-H pet? Or a horse? This is an ideal property for that very thing.

Red Arrow Mining ClaimVery rare National Forest in-holding of over 365 contiguous acres. Headwaters of the Mancos River (well over a mile) are on this property which was commonly known as the Red Arrow Mine made famous in the 1930’s with its spectacular gold discoveries. These are patented mining claims which will be conveyed with title insurance. This is a spectacular hunting property for deer, elk, bear, etc. Lots of aspen and spruce trees. Plenty of areas to build a cabin but since this is actually 18 separately deeded properties, you could, in theory, put a cabin on each one. Think about several different buyers going in together with each person building their own cabin on their own deeded parcel. Lots of roads and trails on this property for ATVs, or pan for gold all along the river, since mineral rights are included. There are 3 developed tunnels and old mine workings. The tunnels are all gated off with locks but keys will be provided to the new owner. I have not been underground on this property, but I’m told there are several 1,000+ foot tunnels. There is a little bit of reclamation work that has to be completed that the previous mine operator did not finish, but that will be taken care of by the current owner. The current owner has retained an excavation contractor to grade the forest service road to help smooth it out. However, he is still working on that permit/permission.
