Exceptional charm meets unbeatable utility on the near-westside. Farm history and ironworkers delight, with iron fence in front yard and art-deco gates on two side of drive-through lot. Brick fascia with original Pella Windows and an inviting real-rock fireplace that has an insert on the main and a wood firebox in the basement. Hot water boiler heat. Real walnut counters in kitchen and newer stainless appliances. Built in buffet with additional wood counters. Sun/garden room on the front to capture southwest light. Two bedrooms on south side of home share a retro yellow bath and an additional retro blue 3/4 bath and laundry is on the north side. Downstairs, possible duplex opportunities await: The basement is accessed by a separate entrance from outside, or remove six screws, and the stairwell is re-opened. Basement level has a large rec room with kitchenette that enjoys a 2 burner Ceran range and dishwasher. A media/gym is along the back and two bedrooms share a remodeled full bath. There is even a secret safe room with iron door hidden behind the basement built-in. There is the original one-car garage as well. The yard is true utility and beauty. Set on nearly a half-acre, fully fenced, there is an oversized 700+ square-foot two car garage that is 26 feet long with potbelly stove and incredible storage. Additional "cow house" offers additional storage, and gather with friends around the paver fire pit. The elevated deck is grand and spacious enough to host large parties, and the propane grill (included) has built-in coolers in the outdoor buffet. Solar System for efficiency which will be paid off at closing. Abundant wood detail on the main level, garden areas ripe with possibility, a chicken run already in place and only the alley separates you from a bike-able commute to downtown on the Mesa Springs Greenway Trail.
