About this property

Elegant modern art home with private terraced gardens, Durango CO.

Our home & sculpture garden is a serene refuge just minutes from downtown Durango that borders a state park full of gorgeous walking & bicycling trails. The house is furnished with original mid century furniture and the owner/artists paintings and sculpture. Except for the caretakers apartment over the garage, no other houses can be seen. Spacious rooms with big mountain views open onto extensive, verdantly creative gardens with numerous stairways and water basins surrounding the house. There is a wood burning masonry fireplace in the living room, and in the backyard, a 4 person hot tub and yoga pagoda sit nestled amongst giant boulders.

18th Anniversary

We wanted a secluded (yet close to town) home to celebrate and get reconnected from running an 18year business. The house is stunning and well thought out. There are places to enjoy nature, listen to the water, watch robins fly and bath, had to ask a pair of deer to not eat the trees in the yard, and loved the steam shower. The owners communicated regularly to make sure we were doing well. We would definitely rent again and can only tell everyone to come here if you are going to Durango.
