About This Home

As of February 2025

Welcome to a captivating piece of downtown Durango! Nestled just a few blocks away from the historic district, this remarkable home embraces the essence of the past while offering the conveniences of modern living. The main level has laminate wood flooring throughout which includes the living room, full bath, kitchen and laundry room. Up the stairs and in the 4 bedrooms is like new carpeting with tile in the full bathroom. The primary bedroom has a vaulted ceiling and a private deck for enjoying the evening breeze. It has a large walk-in closet. The furnishings are available and can be purchased separately. With the added advantage of being exempt from historic regulations, this property presents a unique blend of classic charm and contemporary freedom. This special home is on a corner lot and is in a unique location. It's tucked away in a very quiet neighborhood that offers lots of street parking and is also a short walking distance to the heart of downtown Durango. Originally constructed in 1999, this home underwent a thoughtful transformation in 2009 with the addition of a second floor, elevating both its space and allure. The result is a delightful craftsman design that exudes timeless appeal. It helps knowing the electrical and plumbing are up to date. The meticulous craftsmanship is evident in every corner, seamlessly blending the old and the new. Stepping onto the property, you'll be greeted by an impeccable landscape with mature trees and flourishing greenery. The manicured lawns and well-tended gardens create an oasis right in the heart of downtown. Multiple outdoor decks offer inviting spaces to have your morning coffee or a place to relax and enjoy the evening gatherings. Views to the south are of Smelter Mountain. It has easy access to Durango's river trail. Which runs alongside, and sometimes over, the calm cleansing waters of the picturesque Animas River. This river trail is a paved shared-use trail stretching 7 miles through the city of Durango on the banks of the Animas River. Adventure and exploration await just steps from your door, with direct access to the river trail—a gateway to the scenic wonders of the region. Historic Main Avenue, lined with its charming shops, cafes, and boutiques, beckons you for leisurely strolls and unforgettable experiences. Nearby schools, shopping venues, and a diverse array of restaurants enrich the lifestyle opportunities this location offers. Adding to the appeal, this home was previously a 30-day rental, making it a potential investment opportunity. Average rental income available upon request. Whether you're seeking a permanent residence that combines character and comfort or an income-generating gem, this property effortlessly accommodates your desires. Don't miss the chance to own a piece of Durango's enchanting history with a dash of modern flair. Embrace the charm of a craftsman masterpiece, with the serene surroundings and the convenience of downtown living—all in one exceptional property. Priced at $416/sq.ft this is the best value for any house located on the grid.
