Description

Nestled in the heart of Durango's Historic Boulevard, this Queen Anne Victorian with native sandstone foundation, clapboard siding, and a multi gable roof, was built in 1883 by Alfred Phineas and Estelle McNeil Camp. They moved into their home on New Years Day 1884. The home has had only two owner families in its 140-year existence (For more history on this house, check it out in associated documents). One of the most captivating features of this Victorian beauty is the expansive, wrap-around porch. Its the perfect place to relax on the porch swing, taking in the views of the historic neighborhood, with its tree-lined streets and other charming, well-preserved homes. Inside boasts high ceilings, charming and cozy rooms, and original hardwood floors. A staircase, with its ornate bannisters, winds up to the upper floors where bedrooms and private spaces are tucked away. The Backyard is a wonderfully landscaped retreat that perfectly complements the grandeur of the house. The home sits on a large 9000 sq ft lot. This home is more than just a house; it's a piece of history, a testament to the craftsmanship of a bygone era, and a beloved landmark in the charming Historic Boulevard of Durango.
