About this property

Downtown MainStreet Penthouse 1BR five star Rental with parking overlooking main

This historic stone building was the Salvation Army building that was built in 1911. It is above my law office and was our New York style penthouse living quarters when a complete rebuild was done in 2009. It overlooks Main Avenue right next to Olde Tymers Cafe, and is two doors south from Carvers in Downtown Durango. It is a five star accommodation with an enclosed and heated garage for parking. In my opinion it is the most beautiful penthouse apartment in downtown Durango. The VRBO tenants confirm this description. It has first class amenities including high-end kitchen appliances, beautiful furnishings, Master bath with free standing soaker tub, steam shower, courtyard, and a balcony. It has double paned windows which allows for great insulation and low noise. My wife and I only want to rent to 2 adults, We want to keep the unit in beautiful condition, we only allow 2 persons to sleep in the unit. No large or loud parties. Although there is a small second bedroom, it is not okay for others to sleep there. If not approved by owners, a penalty fee will be added to your stay. The location is amazing, walk out your front door to great restaurants, bars and other amenities. It will not disappoint you. We rarely allow adult children to stay, and have recently made the decision to not allow young children. The place is perfect for two adults,,,,and the cleaning is so much more difficult when kids stay, as well as their impact on the space. This penthouse and its garage has another VRBO (212471) for additional accommodations for your additional guests (1BR luxury apartment above the garage) which can also be rented along with this unit.

Perfect location on Main St., next to my favorite place called Carver's! It's one bedroom is in the back of the apartment, so you don't hear the frequent train whistle or evening street noise. The bathroom is very nice, the pebble shower floor is a foot massage! The kitchen is huge, the artwork is spectacular. Very comfortable for a couple or just one person. It's my second time staying there, will do it again.

Outstanding property and experience!

The owners have obviously put a great deal of thought and care into building out this beautiful property. It is absolutely gorgeous and extremely comfortable. It is in a great location that is in walking distance of all the things you want to see or do in Durango. It was also very nice to have a secure garage to keep your car safe. Great peace of mind. This is one of the best properties I have ever stayed at and I highly recommend it. Thank you so much and we will be back.

Luxury living in my favorite mountain town

Pictures do not do this property justice. Staying in this loft was heaven on earth for us. My husband had to work during the week we stayed. There was a PERFECT space for him to do this and still have all the amenities of downtown living right at the front door! The garage parking was such an extra perk. Easy access in and out for me to sneak away to see family during the day. We felt completely spoiled. We like to cook and had a great time utilizing all the kitchen had to offer. No detail was overlooked in this space. Gorgeous and CLEAN…. Will certainly be back!

Second time we have stayed at this property. We love the location! It is a beautiful penthouse apartment on Main St. All of downtown Durango is right out the front door. The parking garage is a huge asset and enabled us to easily head out to explore hiking , hot springs, and find golf courses. Very modern and comfortable with everything you need for a relaxing adventure in Durango. Bobby was very helpful with the few questions we had. Highly recommend this property.

This is the second time we’ve stayed at the Main Street Penthouse and we enjoy it every time. It’s so much fun to be right in the middle of downtown, yet the place is very quiet and private. We had everything we needed for our short stay and the garage is a big plus for us as we travel with bikes and love the security of leaving them in the van, in the garage. We will also book a few days at the Penthouse whenever we are in town.

My wife and I completely renovated this 1911 Historic stone building which was built originally for the Salvation Army. We have lived in this Penthouse above my law office for the last nine years but have built a new house about 10 blocks away.

Why they chose this property

The Structure is historic and part of the original Durango downtown. We named the building after my parents and it is a first class structure.

What makes this property unique

It is convenient to all that Durango has to offer including great restaurants, great festivals, and the Durango Train!

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
