A rare residence combining functionality of space with the charm of downtown Colorado Springs. Picture windows frame distant mountain views and bring abundant natural light onto the real dark-stained hardwood flooring. An electric fireplace and hearth gives a relaxed Boho mood to the front living room, which expansively opens to the kitchen and dining area. White cabinets with granite slab counters provide great flexibility and everyday use with another picture window above the sink capturing views to the south. Two well-sized bedrooms on the main level share a full bath which enjoys newer finishes. A separate entry mud room between the kitchen and attached garage allows for guests to come and go from the basement. The one-car garage is oversized and has access to the backyard. Downstairs is a generous rec room well lit by recessed lighting and complimented by recently-installed light-oak finished LVT flooring. Two bedrooms (non-conforming window wells) share another updated full bath; the large front bedroom receives light from the southern exposure. Storage is found in the Laundry / HVAC room. Outside, enjoy an unusually large backyard. With 9800 square feet of downtown and the fenceline backing to the alley, there is so much potential for play, gardening, or additional future uses. A pergola partially covers the patio to create a warm weather entertainment space. Winter time brings views of Pike's Peak, while summer enjoys a flowering plum tree. Stucco, roof, HVAC and some electrical upgrades all done in 2017. Just a short bike ride from downtown Colorado Springs and the Rock Island Trail, your future starts here.
