Custom Krueger Home — Trail Access, 4-Car Tandem Garage
Built by The Krueger Group in 2019, this exceptional custom home balances mountain durability with refined finishes. The entry flows to an open main level highlighted by 11-foot tongue-and-groove ceilings and solid European oak floors. The living room centers on a custom fireplace flanked by hand-crafted built-ins, while the kitchen features Thermador and JennAir appliances, a generous island, and a butler’s pantry with a dedicated coffee bar and abundant storage.
The main level includes two bedrooms plus a den ideal for a home office—the den has south-facing views and a custom sliding barn door that complements the home’s crafted details. The primary suite offers a granite-topped double vanity, soaking tub, walk-in shower, separate water closet, and a large walk-in closet. Everyday living is simplified by a main-level laundry/craft room with built-in desk and sink.
Downstairs a thoughtfully finished lower level adds a third bedroom and full bath, a media room with surround sound for family movie nights, a gear room for skis/bikes, and extensive storage—perfect for an active Colorado household. Architectural accents such as a hand-stenciled staircase bring character throughout.
Outside, low-maintenance landscaping with a smart drip system and terraced perennial gardens creates private, usable outdoor space. A covered rear patio extends living outdoors and the south-facing driveway benefits from natural snowmelt. Most importantly, a city-maintained sidewalk directly connects to the Twin Buttes trail system—offering immediate access to miles of singletrack and walking trails. This home also features a metal roof for long-term protection and peace of mind. Located minutes from downtown Durango and Fort Lewis College, the property blends trail-side lifestyle with town convenience.

Location
1022 Twin Buttes Ave, Durango, CO 81301
Twin Buttes is a well-regarded South Durango neighborhood valued for its proximity to an extensive trail network and its mix of custom and newer homes. Streets are generally low-traffic and the area attracts buyers who want quick access to mountain biking, hiking, and the broader outdoor amenities of the San Juan Mountains while remaining a short drive from downtown Durango's restaurants and shops.
Exceptional for outdoor recreation: direct Twin Buttes trail access, quick access to Animas River and San Juan National Forest, and reasonable drive to Durango Mountain Resort.
A factual market snapshot around 1022 Twin Buttes Ave.
Durango’s market continues to favor quality construction that supports an outdoor lifestyle. Inventory for well-appointed single-family homes in desirable neighborhoods is relatively constrained; homes with direct trail access and large, functional garages (like this one) attract a motivated subset of buyers. Median sale prices in the broader Durango area are significantly below this listing’s price, placing 1022 Twin Buttes Ave in the local luxury tier. Expect a measured marketing period as the buyer pool is smaller for homes above $1.5M, but also expect strong interest from buyers prioritizing gear storage, proximity to trails, and turnkey condition. Seasonal buying patterns persist—spring and summer typically bring the highest traffic from recreation-minded buyers and second-home purchasers.
Likely single-family residential zoning (R-1 or similar) allowing detached homes; buyer to verify with city.
