About this property

Historic Property, 1860's Barn, Cold A/C, 12 Minutes to Downtown Durango!

****NOTE: THE QUOTED PRICING IS FOR THE MAIN SIDE OF THE BARN (5 Beds - 3 Bath - 10 Guests). LOCKOFF SIDE OF THE BARN (2 Beds - 1 Bath - 4 Guests) REQUIRES AN ADDITIONAL FEE. PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION.

Post Built in 1860, this AIR CONDITIONED, Amish-built barn was constructed in north central Indiana just before the outbreak of the Civil War. This excellent example of early hand-hewn post & beam construction was carefully dismantled and transported to the Durango area, where it was rebuilt exactly as it originally stood. Located just seven miles outside of Durango, the 'barn' includes a 30-foot high living-dining-kitchen area, one King and five Queen beds, four bathrooms, plenty of parking, and wonderful views (see north porch view above). Furnished with antiques from the Colonial to Civil War period, the barn is trimmed out with 160-year-old wood from the barn. Situated on 11 acres, there is plenty of room to walk the property, enjoy the views, and enjoy all that Durango has to offer. The Barn is AIR CONDITIONED!

The Barn has a king in the master bedroom, a king in the second bedroom, a queen in the third bedroom, and 2 queens in the loft. Enjoy a full kitchen with plenty of seating and a comfortable living room. Sleeps 10 total in the main house. There is a "lockoff" (Sleeps an additional 4 - for a total of 14) available that can be connected at an additional cost. This would add another master suite with a master bath and a king bed, a loft area with a sleeper sofa, and one more bathroom. Also, this would give you an additional full kitchen and living area. Perfect for large families that want to spread out. Rent the main side of the barn, or both; Each side is priced separately. The "lockoff" cannot be rented by itself. Please inquire for a full description of the South side and prices.

Also available for families . . . a high chair, pac-n-play, and misc. baby items!

Bed Configuration:
Master Bedroom - King Bed (main level)
2nd Bedroom - King Bed (main level)
3rd Bedroom - Queen Bed (2nd level)
4th Semi-private Bedroom - Queen Bed (2nd level)
5th Semi-private Bedroom - Queen Bed (2nd level)
