Set on Durango’s storied 3rd Avenue Boulevard, this exceptional circa-1885 residence has been thoughtfully transformed into a refined blend of historic craftsmanship and modern luxury. Just a short walk from downtown, the home offers easy access to dining, shopping, cultural events, and year-round recreation, while maintaining a private and elevated residential feel. The home underwent a comprehensive down-to-the-studs renovation and expansion, preserving its architectural integrity while reimagining it for contemporary living. A seamlessly integrated primary suite addition and powder room enhance functionality, and all major systems - including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, insulation, drywall, and windows - have been fully updated. The result is a home that lives like new while retaining the warmth and character of its historic roots. Interior finishes showcase a careful balance of old and new, with restored original trim, transom windows, a grand staircase, reclaimed wood accents, and a sliding pocket door, complemented by new hardwood flooring, custom millwork, designer lighting, and recessed can lights throughout. The inviting living and dining spaces feature built-in bookcases, an electric fireplace, and abundant natural light - ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The chef’s kitchen is a standout with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, farmhouse sink with reverse osmosis, and premium appliances including a Fisher & Paykel built-in refrigerator, GE Café dual-fuel range, drawer microwave, dishwasher, and custom range hood. A hidden highlight is the temperature-controlled wine cellar, accessed through a handcrafted arched door and spiral staircase, featuring cork flooring, reclaimed wood, and custom lighting (not included in square footage). A centrally located half bath is a work of art with a striking granite sink, beadboard detailing, and accent lighting, conveniently positioned near the mudroom and backyard access. The main-level primary suite is a private retreat with vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, hardwood floors, dual walk-in closets, electric fireplace, custom shades, and large south-facing sliding doors opening to a secluded patio. The spa-inspired primary bath features heated floors, custom cabinetry, quartz surfaces, brushed bronze Brizo fixtures, and under-cabinet lighting. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms and a spa-inspired bathroom with custom built-ins, artisan tilework, and heated flooring, continuing the home’s cohesive blend of historic charm and modern design. Additional features include double-pane windows, a high-efficiency HVAC system with Aprilaire 800 humidifier, REEM Electric Marathon water heater, ductless heating and cooling in the primary suite, and Wi-Fi-enabled thermostats. Outdoor living is equally compelling, from the covered front porch overlooking the tree-lined boulevard to the private backyard retreat enhanced by the current owners with a built-in outdoor kitchen featuring a piped gas BBQ, gas fire pit, and private sauna - creating a true year-round entertaining space. The landscaped corner lot includes new sod, plantings, sprinkler system, stone pavers, and a mix of wrought iron and privacy fencing. Additional exterior amenities include hot/cold hose bibs, gas stub-outs, Ring doorbell, and a new roof on both the home and garage. The garage has been refreshed with new doors, exterior paint, and Wi-Fi-enabled openers. Completing the offering are fully drawn and recently City-approved ADU plans, already vetted through the Historic Board, providing a rare opportunity for future expansion, income potential, or guest accommodations. This is a truly special offering on one of Durango’s most iconic streets - a historically significant home, masterfully restored, thoughtfully upgraded, and enhanced with modern outdoor living and future flexibility, all just moments from the heart of town.
