Description

Minutes from Downtown Colorado Springs, and steps from Switchback Coffee, this lovingly renovated Craftsman-style home has been completely transformed into an incredibly warm and inviting retreat. Nearly every visual aspect of the home has been revamped, reimagined, or replaced. As you approach the front door, you'll notice the Amish treated wood porch swing, which is the perfect place to take in a Colorado sunset as it dips behind the mountains. Inside, the wood floors have been brought back to...Minutes from Downtown Colorado Springs, and steps from Switchback Coffee, this lovingly renovated Craftsman-style home has been completely transformed into an incredibly warm and inviting retreat. Nearly every visual aspect of the home has been revamped, reimagined, or replaced. As you approach the front door, you'll notice the Amish treated wood porch swing, which is the perfect place to take in a Colorado sunset as it dips behind the mountains. Inside, the wood floors have been brought back to life, and the thoughtfully chosen paint colors provide a soothing atmosphere to recharge from the day. In the kitchen, new tile floors and countertops contrast beautifully with the stained cabinets, stainless steel GE appliances, and the Delta faucet. The upstairs bathroom has been completely renovated with new tile floors, striking stone tile surround, and new tub, vanity, and Kohler toilet. Hunter fans, and the Nest Smart Thermostat help keep the home cool and comfortable, and the Ring doorbell paired with the ADT security system keep the home safe. Downstairs, a second kitchen and R2 zoning make this a potential duplex with huge investment upside, or an incredibly convenient option for in-laws, older children, roommates who you can't trust with your leftovers, or a significant other who needs a timeout for a few nights. And out back, past the built in firepit, the way oversized garage has a newer Clopay door, and easily fits two cars plus motorcycles, bikes, kayaks, toys, and tools. Plus, there's room next to the garage for an RV or 5th wheel. Please don't kick yourself for missing out on this gem in what's possibly the most undervalued neighborhood in Colorado Springs.
