Built in 1925

Step back in time in this charming 1925 Craftsman bungalow situated in a quiet, historic Colorado Springs neighborhood. This home retains its original character with thoughtful modern updates, creating a blend of old-world charm and 2025 comfort. Enjoy your morning coffee on the spacious, fenced front porch shaded by a mature tree. Inside, discover refinished hardwood floors in the main level living room and bedrooms, a cozy wood burning fireplace with built-in bookshelves, and a remodeled kitchen with new cabinets and granite countertops. This centennial home also still preserves many of its original features like the freshly painted original wood siding, original wood windows with additional storm windows or screens that can be exchanged seasonally, one hundred year old hardwood floors that came out beautifully after refinishing, and more! Some of those have already been restored and some are awaiting your personal finishing touch! The updated electrical, plumbing, and new furnace provide peace of mind, while the light-flooded 3rd bedroom in the basement offers versatility. The large lot presents numerous possibilities for gardening, outdoor entertaining, or possibly adding an ADU with the updated ordinances coming June 2025. Located within walking distance of the historic Patty Jewett Golf Course and a short distance from downtown, this home offers a unique blend of history, convenience, and potential. Move-in ready, this quaint home awaits a new owner to appreciate its unique character.
