Tara House — Historic Charm, Executive Comfort, Minutes from Downtown

Welcome to Tara House — where timeless elegance meets modern comfort.

Relax with a book in the parlor, get work done in the private office (complete with printer), or unwind in the comfortable family room. The main level also features a ¾ bath and dedicated workspace.

Upstairs, you’ll find three elegant bedrooms. The primary suite includes its own bath with a jetted tub. Bedrooms two and three each have desks and share a spacious hall bath—also with a jetted tub. Bedroom three opens onto the second-floor veranda, offering a lovely view and a peaceful spot to start or end your day.

Outdoors, entertain on the large side patio beneath the pergola, or fire up the grill on the private rear patio overlooking the garden—perfect for long-term guests who enjoy growing seasonal herbs and vegetables.

Best location

What an incredible home. The neighborhood can feel a bit sketch, but the neighbors are amazing and this house and location a win win. We walked to so many places downtown, and the drive time to everything we needed was minimal and super convenient. This house has so many amenities, and the yard space is fantastic. We cooked at home every night while there on a business trip, and ate fresh tomatoes and strawberries from the backyard garden. Security is quite good. This historic house is so well done and I really appreciated how it embraced the sense of community and rejuvination Pueblo is experiencing. If you need a kitchenmaid mixer, they have it. Need a fresh chili? Growing seasonally in the garden. Extremely comfortable home close to everything.

Excellent Stay

The home is located walking distance to historic downtown area, Starbucks and the Pueblo Riverwalk. Plenty of restaurants and shopping are accessible from this quiet, out of the way neighborhood. Older boys used mountain bikes located in the carriage to ride along the Fountain River. Pueblo has more than 40 miles of interconnected bike trails. The home is a great launching point for day rides. Bedrooms and kitchen spaces were excellent for rest and meal preparations. Upgraded appliances and decorative touches help retain the Victorian feel of the property.

Tara House was great!

Six family members, ages 21 to 68, traveled here for a high school graduation and Tara House served us all well. The historic house is very well done and has everything you need. The beds are comfy and the kitchen was perfect for making meals. Lovely outdoor spaces - spent a lot of time on the back private patio. Having so much parking is also a tremendous plus. Super easy to get to everything right off the interstate. Great stay!!

Home away from home

We had employees from Portland, Oregon working at the Steel Mill in Pueblo. We like to give them a comfortable place to relax, do laundry and cook a meal after a long day. This property was perfect for this!

Amazing place to stay. Will definitely return.

I highly recommend this "Enchanted home" for anyone visiting Pueblo/Colorado Springs. The pictures on this site do not do justice to this quaint but spacious antique home. The vintage furniture and aesthetics were awesome. The rooms were spotless. The bedrooms were spacious and had very comfortable beds. The kitchen was spacious and clean. you can tell they pay attention to the details. It definitely felt like our home away from home. The location was very close to the interstate for easy access to travel. The owner was easy to communicate with and quick to respond. When visiting USAFA in Colorado Springs we will definitely return to this home.

Great Location for Pueblo

The house is in a great location right in the heart of Pueblo. We rode our bikes downtown to the various pubs and restaurants, and it was an enjoyable stay. The neighborhood is a little sketchy, but we didn't have any issues with the people. The house was well furnished with all the necessary household items you'd need for a stay. If returning to the area, we would stay there again -- it was of good value for what we paid.

Tara house for two months.

John runs a tight ship and is a very professional host. The house was plenty of room for the three of us and overall the amenities worked well (WiFi was rather spotty and temperamental). Lots of colorful characters in the neighborhood who provided some great people watching on the front porch. Nice private BbQ area out the back. Had a few questions for John over the period of our stay and he sorted us out right away. Great access to the highway to drive and easy walking distance for anything downtown. We would absolutely stay here again next time we’re in town.
