La Plata County
Exceptional Acreage Minutes From Durango
TBDWP County Road 240 Durango, CO 81301
Description
Located just minutes from downtown Durango, this 49.69-acre tract in the exclusive Bear Springs POA offers a rare combination of privacy, accessibility, and stunning La Plata Mountain views. The property features a mixture of rolling and level terrain, densely forested with mature pine, piñon pine, and gambel oak, creating a picturesque setting for a private estate or retreat.
A domestic water well is already permitted and drilled, and electric service is installed at the lot line — significant improvements that save time and money for future development. A roughed-in road provides access to the well site and a potential building envelope, offering a head start for your vision.
The property’s location within Bear Springs POA — a small association of only five properties — ensures minimal restrictions while still benefiting from year-round road maintenance and plowing. Wildlife, including deer, elk, and turkey, are frequent visitors, enhancing the natural mountain living experience.
Epic views stretch from the La Plata Mountains and Florida Mesa to Lake Nighthorse and even the town of Durango, delivering stunning scenery in every direction. Despite its private feel, the property offers excellent access to Florida Road, allowing for a quick bike ride or drive into town.
This is a rare opportunity to own large, usable acreage with utilities in place, incredible views, and easy year-round access — all within ten minutes of downtown Durango. Whether building a primary residence, second home, or mountain getaway, this property offers the best of Colorado living with space, privacy, and connection to the outdoors.
