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.

Great location for short term stay
The carriage house was nicely furnished. The beds were comfortable. The AC units were a nice touch but a bit noisy. We aren't used to city ife so the traffic and AC noises were a bit much. Lovely and convenient area for walks, lots of parks, near Animas trail.

Wonderful Durango Stay
This property was perfect. Extremely clean, well stocked with towels and extra pillows and blankets. Location couldn’t be better. Beautiful front porch next to lilac bush allowed for early morning coffee with some deer walking by. Host was very accommodating and very easy to talk with. Can’t recommend this rental high enough!!

Amazing downtown/river location
We really enjoyed our stay at the carriage house! The location was amazing - we walked downtown every night for drinks and dinner. Easy parking right out the front door which made it easy to unload. The house is well stocked and cozy. The perfect stay for a ski vacation!

Durango stay
First time to stay in a timberframe home, and it did not disappoint. Beautiful, comfortable home that had everything we needed. Several eateries within walking distance, and the Durango-Silverton train depot was just a very short drive. Very nice neighborhood. Andrew was a great host --- communicated very well. Really appreciated the opportunity to stay here for a couple nights!
