Description
Welcome to historic Old North End; this home is the perfect blend of historic charm and contemporary conveniences. Across the street from Boddington Park, within walking distance, you will find exciting downtown Colorado Springs, relaxing summer concerts in the park, and the Santa Fe Trail. This 1912 grand home is full of charm, the diamond detail in every window allowing natural light in, large stain glass in stairwell and original woodwork throughout. Enter the front door through a cozy front porch overlooking Boddington Park. The entry into the home greets you with a grand staircase, to the left is a formal sitting room with a gas fireplace and lots of natural light. To the right is formal dinning room, powder bath and a large family room. The family room includes marble wrapped wood burning fireplace and inset tv mount above, a east facing bay window looking into the back yard floods this room with sunshine every morning. Turn the corner to the large kitchen with a wall of windows into the back yard. The morning sun is the perfect setting for the very private back patio coffee. Through the back door in the kitchen you will find built in shelving for pantry goods and the entrance to the basement, equipped with a theatre room that includes a Murphy bed, wine storage, extra freezer space, a full renovated bathroom, storage and laundry. Bring yourself back upstairs to the grand staircase and stained glass detail that fills the space. Upstairs you will find a large master retreat with built in dressers, a renovated master bath, all anchored by another charming fireplace. 3 other bedrooms and a large hall bathroom finish off the space. A sleeping porch connects to 2 of the bedrooms for additional space for a play room/office/art room. The owners have installed AC/furnace and duct work to make the home comfortable on hot summer days. The garage is currently set up as a home gym, but is plenty big for a car plus lots of storage.
