Property Description
This charming farmhouse built back in the late 1800s offers both character and charm. You'll find a nice blend of original pieces throughout the home with some modern flares as well. As you pull up to the property, you will feel a sense of tranquility being in what feels like the country with large sunflowers that grow seasonally, Fountain Creek flowing right through the property (without the need for flood insurance), unobstructed views of Pikes Peak, and almost 6 acres of space. The property borders Fountain Creek Regional Park which extends your feeling of privacy and open space. Zoned for horses with no HOA, you may enjoy the opportunity to raise animals if you wish. There are numerous outbuildings all which have been recently repainted. The house features cedar shake accents, a wrap-around porch, and the entire exterior has been freshly repainted with a brand-new roof! As you step foot on the front porch, take note of your surroundings and the peacefulness around you. You won't find a better place to capture morning sunrises and sunsets from all angles of the porch. With only 3 owners in over 100 years, this home comes pridefully maintained. You won't find a better historic property in a more peaceful setting. From the moment you walk in the door, you'll see the beautiful original wood flooring that flows throughout much of the home. There is large molding, detailed trim, and original hardware with accompanying skeleton keys! As you approach the kitchen, you'll enjoy the modern updates with stone countertops, a large farm sink, and large center island. There is an adjoining mudroom/laundry room space along with a perfect reading nook. The bathroom is on the main level and has been beautifully updated. There is 1 bedroom on the main level with an additional 2 bedrooms upstairs plus a flex space in case you prefer to have 3 bedrooms upstairs. The primary bedroom offers lots of storage space, built-in cabinets, and cozy reading lights.
