Anyone who knows Durango loves this neighborhood, located directly across from the park, the river trail and the library. Built in 1926, this charming 1457 sf Craftsman bungalow offers all that you'd expect: a large, fenced in yard with a traditional 194 sf front porch and oversized swing, 2 BRs with 1 full bath with a bonus basement that is partially finished. With 1202 sf on the main living level, the home features a very open floor plan while remaining true to its Craftsman Heritage with gorgeous wood floors, high ceilings, and huge windows. The open kitchen is big and set up for entertaining, being located between the back yard and the main living area. Both bedrooms offer plenty of storage, with the Primary suite having a walk in closet. The lower level could be converted into a number of uses as is- an office, rec room, work out area- or by adding larger window wells it could be converted into another official bedroom space. The laundry room is downstairs as well, and there is an incredible amount of storage in this bonus level. The back yard is fully fenced and features a 465 sf deck for lounging or entertaining. Noting this is a level, alley accessed lot, expanding for a second floor on this stout structure could result in fantastic La Plata Mountain Views and with the paved alley access, a future owner would have the opportunity to add a garage, per City of Durango (Buyer to verify). With the river trail less than a 1/4 mile away, and the first set of Downtown Durango restaurants less than a half mile away, you simply cannot beat the location. In downtown Durango but separated by the river, you enjoy the proximity to all the amenities without the hustle and bustle of being right on the grid. Updated but also priced for the next owner to put their modern touches on it, this rare Craftsman offering in the library district will not last long!
