Charming & Sun-Filled Bungalow in Downtown Durango. This beautifully maintained bungalow offers a perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience in a prime location. Just blocks from over 1,000 acres of open space and trails, Park Elementary School, and a variety of local favorites -including Durango Joe's Coffee, Durango Natural Foods Market, College Drive Cafe, and Homeslice Pizza - this home also provides easy access to Fort Lewis College and all that downtown Durango has to offer. Inside, the home showcases its classic character with original oak hardwood floors and 9' ceilings in the living room and main-level bedrooms. Updates over the years have added Saltillo tile in the kitchen, a cozy sunroom, an additional ¾ bathroom, and a spacious, open loft-style bedroom upstairs with laminate flooring and wall unit radiant heating. Modern comforts include built-in surround sound speakers, custom closet organizers, radiant hot-water baseboard heating, a free-standing wood-burning fireplace, and a new water heater (installed in 2018/19). A basement area provides extra storage space. Step outside to a fully fenced, oversized backyard - ideal for gardening with raised beds already in place. A large workshop/gear storage shed sits next to two off-street parking spaces, offering both practicality and potential. Notably, this lot is eligible for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), presenting an exciting opportunity for additional living space or rental income (buyers should verify setback and design requirements with the City of Durango). Please note: The upstairs loft is included as a bedroom for marketing purposes, though it does not currently have a closet—however, there is ample space to add one. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a charming, well-loved home in an unbeatable location!
