Property Description

Nestled on a quiet Salida street with views of "S" Mountain, this beautifully maintained Craftsman bungalow offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern updates — all within easy walking or biking distance to downtown. The renovated eat-in kitchen features granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances including a large cooktop with hood and new dishwasher. Hardwood floors run throughout the home, and the light-filled living room is anchored by a new Jøtul gas fireplace complete with new stove pipe, partial chimney, and spark catch. Updated windows, cellular shades, and a ceiling fan round out the main living spaces. The thoughtful floor plan places the primary bedroom at the front of the home with an ensuite bathroom, while two additional bedrooms — ideal as a guest room, home office, or reading retreat — are tucked toward the back with access to a full bathroom. An easily accessible cellar with full headroom adds valuable storage and laundry space. Major systems have all been addressed: new high-efficiency furnace (2024), new water heater (2024), new roof by Oscar's Roofing (2019), and new gutters front and rear (2022). Step outside through sliding glass doors off the kitchen to a covered back deck and a fully fenced, private yard landscaped with raised garden beds along the deck, aspens, columbines, perennials, and shrubs — all on a drip irrigation system. A generous workshop (formerly a garage, with potential to convert back) provides space for hobbies, a studio, or storage, plus a fenced area behind for off-street parking of a car, motorcycle, or small trailer. A greenhouse rounds out this backyard retreat — perfect for year-round growing, composting, or even a future apiary. The handcrafted front door, screen door, and house number sign — each made by artisan Skip Wilson — set the tone for everything that awaits inside. A true Salida charmer — don't miss it!
