Exceptionally priced estate offering land, water rights, and long-term value. Offered for the first time in nearly three decades, 1300 North Dolores Road presents a rare opportunity to secure a substantial property with acreage, views, and proximity that are increasingly difficult to find - now positioned well below both market averages and replacement cost. Set on 2.2 acres just outside of Cortez, this classic brick residence offers over 4,000 square feet of living space with four bedrooms, a dedicated office, and three bathrooms. Generous room sizes, a flexible layout, solid brick construction, central water and sewer, and abundant storage throughout provide a strong foundation for comfortable living today and thoughtful updates over time. This home offers a clean slate for all of your design dreams. The property is enhanced by mature landscaping, fruit trees, and a large irrigated pasture supported by 5 shares of MVI water rights. This amount of water provides more than ample irrigation capacity to support the pasture and maintain the lush landscaping. A circular driveway, expansive parking, and a detached garage and workshop provide excellent functionality for vehicles, equipment, hobbies, or recreational use. The back pasture offers outstanding potential for horses, animals, or small-scale agricultural use. At approximately $126 per square foot, this home is being offered significantly below the average price per square foot in Cortez and well below replacement cost, making it a compelling option for buyers seeking space, land, and long-term value rather than paying a premium for new construction. The location further enhances its appeal, with Mesa Verde National Park approximately 10 miles away, McPhee Reservoir just 14 miles away, Conquistador Golf Course less than one mile away, a few minutes to shopping and restaurants in Cortez and downtown Durango within an easy drive. Recreation opportunities abound with easy access in every direction to desert landscapes, mountain terrain, rivers, and parks, all while remaining conveniently close to everyday amenities. Whether you are looking for room to grow, a property to personalize over time, or a well-located estate with land and water, 1300 North Dolores Road offers an exceptional opportunity to secure lasting value in a highly desirable setting.
