We've owned this 1920 brick bungalow since 2001. It was in pretty bad shape when we got it, but we've brought the house and the yard back to life with love, a lot of sweat equity, and gallons of paint! We replaced all the windows with high quality Pella vinyl double pane windows throughout the house. We insulated the attic with blow-in cellulose and put encapsulated fiberglass insulation between the floor joists in the basement. Today the house is comfortable, warm, and inviting. We've lived here full time since 2005. This property also has a 4 room house that was originally a coal camp house with its own address, 305 W. Cedar. It was moved to town probably in the mid twentieth century. It was unoccupied and boarded up for 30 years before we bought it. We re-roofed it and stabilized the structure but haven't done any other improvements on it. We currently use it as a storage building, but it could be fixed up as a mother-in-law cottage, rental, or studio. It would also make a fine chicken or rabbit house just the way it is. (the city of Walsenburg allows up to 10 hens or rabbits per property) There are 3 out buildings besides the 4 room house, enough garden space for a small farm, and no lawn to water because the yard is graveled. The property is completely fenced with a cinder block wall along the alley side and privacy fence and hedge on the other sides. The gates are all lockable which is a requirement if cannabis is grown. (State law allows each adult Colorado resident to have 6 cannabis plants if they are grown in a fenced yard with locks). The gas stove, refrigerator, washer/dryer, swamp cooler, and microwave stay with the house. Most of the other furniture can also stay...buyer's choice. The house is solidly built and all appliances are working, however they aren't brand new so we are giving a $10,000 appliance allowance back to the buyers at closing. If you are interested in any type of urban farming or if you just want to sit on the porch and relax, this property would suit your needs.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
