Nestled in the heart of downtown Durango, this 1920s Bungalow sitting on a corner lot has oodles of charm. The home features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a 2-car garage. A rocking chair front porch invites you in to an open living room and kitchen. The light-filled living room has original wood floors, new windows, and a new ceiling fan. The open kitchen has been remodeled and features stone countertops, custom built cabinets with tile backsplash, pantry with ample wood shelving, and stainless steel appliances. The custom built-in breakfast nook is surrounded by windows, and completes the heart of this home. Next to the kitchen is a covered porch/mudroom with a wall of windows, slate tiles, and built-in storage cabinets. The porch is big enough that it could be used for a home office. The separate dining room has doors leading to the outside to a partially covered Trex deck. Also on the main level are two bedrooms with a shared bathroom. The bathroom has a claw foot tub, and new accessories. The French doors lead to the large downstairs bedroom with a nearby walk-in closet, and bathroom. Plus there is an over-sized laundry room with plenty of storage. The floor plan is very comfortable and all the many storage areas utilize the square footage to its maximum. The detached garage (30'x19') is big enough for two cars plus a workshop. The yard has newer wood fencing, Trex deck, brick patio, vegetable and flower garden, and apple and apricot trees. All landscaping is automatically irrigated.
