About this property

Downtown Durango-New Custom Timber Frame-the Carriage House

The Carriage House is a beautiful custom home located in a bustling part of historic downtown Durango. The house was completed in 2011 and was built to the highest standard of quality, with warm timber frame accents, radiant-heat floors, and stained concrete counters and sinks. This house is a legal and permitted vacation rental so there will be no troubles with your stay (project #19-030, permit #19-030).
We own another house downtown: the Durango Hideout that sleeps 10 in 4 bedrooms (vrbo# 1150651).
The Carriage house has 3 bedrooms, which are all located upstairs. The master has its own spacious bathroom and a king bed. A second bedroom has a queen bed. Then there is a third bedroom that has a queen along with a twin in a loft of this room. The entire second floor has gorgeous vaulted timber ceilings. Downstairs, there is a full bathroom, a great room, and the kitchen, which has bar seating, stainless steel appliances, and concrete counter tops. Outside, there is a front porch and a back patio, which is equipped with a grill and seating. Inside, the on-demand hot water system ensure you will always have plenty of hot water. The house is now equipped AC. We put individual units in the bedrooms and one in the living space so it will be plenty cool.

This is the perfect spot to enjoy the Durango lifestyle, as you are in a busy neighborhood within minutes of restaurants, shops, the bike path, the Animas River, and city parks. Sit on the front porch and watch the Durango-Silverton Narrow Gauge Train rumble right by the house, or take a stroll on the river path that’s just a minute away.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Andrew was very efficient and provided excellent communication. The home was beautiful and well stocked. We could walk to all our favorite locations and the bonus was having the train tracks right by the house.

Great location! Such a beautiful area to walk around — the Animas River Trail is amazing to have so close, especially with the botanical garden right along it. We saw so much wildlife, explored downtown, and enjoyed plenty of restaurants. Got our steps in and loved every minute of it. Lots of wildlife and deer you name we seen it!

We had a great stay here! It is walking distance from downtown, the narrow gauge railroad, and the river path, which was lovely. The host communicated well. The setup was a little bit difficult with all the bedrooms on the second floor and only the master bath. All other visitors had to use the first floor bathroom. The kitchen also could have been more well-stocked. Overall, we enjoyed our time in Durango.

Very comfortable and well maintained property. Everything worked, kitchen well stocked and property close to downtown and walking distance to the Animas River. Beds are a little firm, but thats a personal preference. Property close to busy street.

An exceptionally clean and well-kept property. The kitchen had everything we needed and the living area was a great place to relax after adventures around town. We enjoyed being very close to the Animas riverwalk and were able to walk across the pedestrian bridge at Rotary Park to easily access the Durango Trout Hatchery and Durango Public Library & Botanic Gardens. This would be an ideal property for anyone keen on using bikes to access the Animas River Trail. The loft bed was a favorite for our kids and they also enjoyed being able to step out on the front porch to see the steam train leaving for and returning from Silverton.
