960 E 4th Avenue, Durango, CO 81301

Finding a 1908 home in Downtown Durango that isn’t a drafty project is a challenge. Usually, you trade historic character for high utility bills and aging systems. This property is the rare exception where the heavy lifting has already been finished. Efficient Living in the Grid The seller has focused on upgrades that make a historic home actually comfortable and affordable to run. Owned Solar: The solar system is fully paid for, providing a massive head start on your monthly overhead. Real Climate Control: You have full air conditioning and dual heat pumps, a luxury in the downtown grid where many homes still rely on window units. Energy Upgrades: High-end wood windows with aluminum cladding and spray insulation keep the interior quiet and the temperature stable. Recent Maintenance: With a newer second-story roof and fresh interior and exterior paint, the immediate "to-do" list is non-existent. Built for the Durango Lifestyle The home is designed to handle both a quiet evening and a garage full of gear. The Kitchen: Warm wood cabinetry and custom blue tile work create an authentic, intentional space that fits the home's character. Detached Gear Hub: The garage features a newer concrete floor and modern door, providing a secure, clean space for bikes, skis, and river equipment. Private Sanctuary: The backyard is a low-maintenance flagstone retreat framed by mature trees, perfect for hosting after a day on the trails. Location and Context You are blocks from Main Avenue, yet tucked away on a quiet stretch of 4th Ave. You can walk to dinner, bike to the Powerhouse, or hit the Animas River trail in minutes. This is a turnkey opportunity to own a piece of Durango history without the typical historic headaches.
