Property Description

Welcome to this charming Ivywild bungalow, where timeless character meets thoughtful updates in one of Colorado Springs' most desirable neighborhoods. Inviting stone & stamped concrete walkways lead to a beautifully refreshed exterior featuring brand-new paint, cedar accents, raised garden beds, & exceptional curb appeal. Inside, abundant natural light fills the living room through oversized windows, highlighting the original hardwood floors that extend throughout the main-level living, dining & bedroom spaces. The dining room showcases a large bay window, a classic built-in glass cabinet, while the updated kitchen blends style & function with painted cabinetry, concrete countertops, tile flooring, a full tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a French door refrigerator, gas range & convenient hanging pot rack. The primary bedroom offers two bright windows & a ceiling fan, while the main bath features a tiled tub/shower with charming wainscoting accents. Vintage single-panel doors & painted trim preserve the home's original character throughout. The finished walkout basement expands the living space with a spacious recreation room featuring luxury vinyl plank flooring, built-ins, recessed lighting & direct access to the backyard patios. A third bedroom with an egress window, beautifully updated three-quarter bath with a full subway-tiled shower & frameless glass enclosure, plus a laundry room with storage cabinets add flexibility & convenience. Step outside to your own private retreat with two concrete & stone patios, a fenced & landscaped backyard, storage shed, chicken coop, garden areas & a unique round wood-fired sauna. Whether relaxing, entertaining, or gardening, this peaceful outdoor oasis is truly special. Complete with an attached one-car garage & extra parking, ideally located near Ivywild Park, the gazebo & playground, this exceptional home offers the perfect blend of comfort, charm & investment potential as a primary residence or short-term rental.
