Property Description
Step into Salida history with this charismatic 1909 residence, proudly anchoring a lush corner lot in the heart of the downtown Historic District. Sturdy original bones—stone foundation, thick framing, classic trim lines—set the stage, while recent essentials are already in place: a high-efficiency furnace (2023) and 50-gal. hot water heater (2021). Sheet-rock, paint, flooring, and finish-carpentry updates will quickly elevate the interior to match the home's timeless curb appeal.
An early-1980s addition added the mud room, living room and attached an oversized garage with extra storage and easy access to the chicken coupe. Inside, enjoy spanish wood carved doors, vaulted ceilings, sky lights, comfortable room sizes and two flex spaces for a library or kitchen expansion. Plenty of space for a large family or perfectly poised to create a lucrative short- or long-term rental.
Outdoors, the property blossoms into a true gardener's sanctuary. Established white honey locust, black chestnut, and birch canopy layered beds teeming with perennials, herbs, and produce: zinnias, irises, lilies, poppies, columbine, hollyhocks, salvia, hyssop, blue flax, lavender, yarrow; chives, mint, motherwort, onions, garlic; rhubarb, zucchini, pumpkins—and fragrant yellow tea roses winding along the picket fence. Milkweed and honeysuckle beckon pollinators, while a tidy chicken coop keeps fresh eggs close at hand.
Leave the car behind—cafés, galleries, parks, the Arkansas River walk, Salida Hot Springs, skate parks, schools, and trailheads are all within a few blocks and Monarch ski resort, Mt. Princeton Hot Springs and the Colorado Trail are only 20 minutes away. Whether you're dreaming of restoring a classic, cultivating an urban homestead, or securing a high-demand investment, this downtown gem invites your vision. Video tour: https://youtu.be/SkBp3YxFsk8
