My number one pick in the Townhomes over $600,000 category is the Enclave townhomes at Dalton Ranch with a rating of 8.23/10. Most of these homes back to the Dalton Ranch Golf Course and have nice views of the red cliffs above. Most of the free-standing homes in the surrounding community sell in the $900,000-$1.2M range. The community is located about 10 minutes north of the Durango City limits. Enclave townhomes sold in the $605,000 to $690,000 range during 2021/22, with an average price of $638,500.
Five reasons you’ll love living at the Enclave:
- Access to swimming pool, golf, and tennis courts
- Golf course and red cliff views
- Homes have patio and grass area off living area
- Eight minutes to town and 25 minutes to ski area.
- Good value compared to nearby options
