Property Description

Welcome home to this beautiful 2 bedroom/1 bathroom Cañon City Bungalow and its 308 square foot detached garage that has been retrofitted into a versatile bonus space. Throughout the home, timeless historic architecture meets modern comfort. From the moment you step onto the porch—complete w/ its traditional "haint" blue tongue-and-groove ceiling—this turnkey residence captivates with authentic character and intentional design. Inside, ten-foot ceilings and oversized windows allow for tons of natural light, highlighting pristine hardwood floors, vintage period hardware, and nostalgic nods like classic screen doors & antique closet entryways. The heart of the home features a cottage kitchen equipped with a fully working antique Firestone refrigerator, a petite gas stove, and repurposed plank countertops perfectly paired w/ a contemporary porcelain sink. A clever pass-through window opens directly into the main living space, creating an open, inviting flow that connects the main spaces. The home offers 2 bedrooms accessed by custom, hand-painted barn doors, alongside an oversized bathroom anchored by a classic clawfoot tub & lots of shelving for storage. Extend your living space outdoors into a fully fenced, private backyard retreat framing a lush lawn & a majestic willow tree that offers summer shade. At the rear, complete with convenient alley access, a detached studio is outfitted with a 3/4 bathroom, repurposed counters & cupboards complete with a mini-fridge, and lots of room for a small sitting area, sleeping and/or an office. This space is ready to serve as the ultimate home office, guest sanctuary, or creative retreat. Every nook & cranny has been thoughtfully curated w/ hooks, shelving, & pretty light fixtures, proving no detail was overlooked. Situated just minutes from Cañon City’s vibrant Main Street shops, local parks, schools, & doctors, this historic gem offers an extraordinary opportunity for immediate occupancy.
