Property Description

Step back to a simpler time — 1903, to be exact — when this charming home stood proudly on the eastern edge of a growing Colorado Springs. Just one block from a public park and minutes from downtown, this lovingly preserved home blends historic charm with modern functionality. Unlike many flipped historic homes, this one retains its soul — original trim, 9-foot ceilings, crown molding, leaded glass, wood floors and unique details that all remain. It was clearly built in a time when proud craftsmen paid attention to the finer details. Naturally bright, warm and inviting, there’s no question that this home is on the sunny side of the street. And for cooler months, there’s a functioning fireplace surrounded by original Van Briggle tile and brass insert with an ornately carved wood mantel that warms the living room, the heart of the house. The spacious kitchen, with granite countertops and generous cabinetry, draws family and friends together with ease. Upstairs, the master bedroom features vaulted ceilings and dormer windows that look out to a clear view of Pikes Peak — an inviting retreat. Out back, established landscaping under umbrellas of large elm trees offers a peaceful escape from everyday stresses. Up front, recent xeriscaping showcases high-quality stone and a dry riverbed with a footbridge — both enchanting and sustainable. A full front/back irrigation system keeps everything thriving with minimal effort. The backyard is truly your own private oasis. Comfort comes year-round with humidified forced-air heating and central cooling. The R-2 zoning offers some flexibility. Included is a history of the home — its former owners, and even an interview with someone born in the house in 1908. Much has changed in Colorado Springs over the past 122 years, but this home still echoes with timeless warmth — and waits for its next story to begin.
