This home was constructed a little more than on hundred years ago and is a goldmine of unrealized opportunity. When it was built in 1906 it would have been the sort of place an up-and-coming bank cashier or civil servant would have moved his family into when he got his first big promotion. Well-built, attractive, just a block away from the Victorian mansions of Colorado Avenue, he would have entertained his friends and relatives with considerable pride, and probably taken innocent pleasure in their envy. Neither the neighborhood nor the house have changed much since those days.

It is currently being lived in and you if you want you could move right in, but you should plan to do some work. In fact you should probably plan to do quite a lot of work, but if you choose to do so you'll be richly rewarded. Some of the rewards include...

This property is offered "as is". If you have any doubts about your ability to evaluate it's opportunities and challenges, we'd encourage you to have it inspected by a qualified professional. But do look at it. If your dream includes a connection to a simpler past in a neighborhood where change is measured in decades rather than months, and you want to realize it at a bargain price, this could be just what you're looking for.
