Property Description

Located on one of the finest blocks of East Third Avenue, this home puts the best of Durango right outside your door. Downtown's restaurants, shops, galleries, and year-round events are an easy walk away with quick access to the Animas River trails and the outdoor recreation that defines life here. It's a rare mix of a quiet established neighborhood and true walk-everywhere convenience. The home is a genuine piece of Durango history. The original residence was built in 1883, one year after the Durango train station was completed and still carries the soaring high ceilings of that era. In 1937, a major Streamline Modern renovation roughly doubled the footprint and transformed the Victorian into a striking Art Deco home, defined by sweeping horizontal lines, corner windows, glass block, and period-appropriate fixtures. As the longtime residence of the Bodo family, the namesakes of Durango's Bodo Park, it remains one of the boulevard's most distinctive and storied properties. That character was carefully honored in a comprehensive, high-quality remodel in 2019. The front Art Deco windows were replaced with new custom Kolbe windows, and the updates continued throughout: a bright, contemporary kitchen with new cabinetry, quartz countertops, and updated appliances anchors an open, light-filled living space while new flooring, fresh paint, new exterior stucco, and replacement of major systems and appliances including furnace, water heater, refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave, deliver turnkey comfort within a home of real architectural pedigree. With 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths all on a single level, the main home offers easy, flexible living that adapts as life changes. Above the detached two-car garage, a separate ~484 sf loft with its own bathroom makes a great office or studio today and would be simple to improve into a fully built-out ADU, adding rental income or guest space down the road. Outside, two porches and a low-maintenance xeriscaped backyard make entertaining easy with natural gas already run to the grilling area and infrastructure in place for a hot tub. A landmark address, a one-of-a-kind architectural story, and modern comfort throughout, this is East Third Avenue living at its best.
