Nestled in a peaceful neighborhood, this 5-bedroom, 2-bathroom brick ranch is more than just a house--it's a canvas waiting for you to make it home. Located just a stone's throw from a neighborhood park and with easy access to schools, shopping and restaurants, this property is ideal for buyers looking to add their own style and make it truly their own. Step inside to discover timeless mid-century details: an original 1955 pink and black tile bathroom with new flooring, a built-in brass mail slot, and beautifully preserved hardwood floors. Imagine cozy evenings in the spacious living room with its wood-burning fireplace, and summer days spent on the private back patio.

Enjoy breathtaking west-facing views of the mountains including Pikes Peak, Cheyenne Mountain plus Garden of the Gods Park views. The full basement, featuring brand-new carpet, offers tremendous opportunities for additional space. One of the downstairs bedrooms could be transformed into a recreation room perfect for entertaining with walk-out access. The laundry room and adjoining workshop connect to a large bonus room offering many possibilities, including a hobby room or great home theatre. The partially fenced backyard includes a natural hedge of lilac bushes lining the alley, a clothesline, a dog run, and ultimate privacy for evenings around the firepit. The home comes with thoughtful upgrades, including an ozonation laundry system that virtually eliminates viruses and bacteria, a whole-home water filtration system including a reverse osmosis drinking water system. The level yard is perfect for gardening, playing, or simply relaxing in your outdoor haven. Excellent option for those wanting sweat equity, an up/down duplex or a short-term rental (no HOA)!
