1500 E Grand Ave, Laramie, WY 82070

Historic Hitchcock Home Across from the University of Wyoming Perched proudly in the University Neighborhood Historic District, this 1921 Colonial Revival residence is one of Laramie’s architectural treasures—designed by Wilbur Hitchcock and crafted with the kind of detail and permanence rarely seen today. From the moment you arrive, the home’s stately brick façade, Grecian pediment entry, and classic Federal symmetry set the tone for a property that blends historic significance with modern livability. Inside, sunlight pours through updated windows, illuminating original hardwood floors, elegant fireplaces, and the sweeping central staircase that anchors the main level. Every room reflects the home’s heritage while offering the comfort of thoughtful updates. The kitchen has been beautifully modernized with quartz countertops, a gas range, and new appliances, while spa style bathrooms feature in floor radiant heat, a steam shower, and a jetted tub—luxuries seamlessly integrated into the home’s historic framework. A fully functional lower level apartment—with its own kitchen, private entrance, and legal egress windows—adds remarkable versatility. Whether used for guests, extended family, or rental income, the space enhances the home’s flexibility without compromising its character. The sunroom, one of the home’s most beloved spaces, opens to a private backyard with a built in BBQ patio and deck—perfect for summer evenings, gatherings, or quiet moments at home. Two garages provide ample space for parking, storage, or workshop use. With its unmatched location directly across from the University of Wyoming, this home offers walkability, convenience, and a sense of place that is uniquely Laramie. Rich in history, thoughtfully updated, and move in ready, it stands as one of the city’s most notable historic homes—an exceptional blend of past and present.
