338 E 3rd St, Salida, CO 81201

Freshly renovated downtown Salida home. East 3rd street is quiet and quaint, and yet only a couple blocks away from the Arkansas river, amphitheater, shopping, restaurants and all the action. Easy access to biking, hiking, surfing and more. Tasteful and integral improvements are abundant in this cozy 3 bed, 2 bath home. Sturdy, solid and square, the structure is a testament to the craftsmanship of that era. Built in 1900, it is one of the original homes built with brick. It stands amongst many impressive architecturally unique homes. One differentiating factor is, an enormous penthouse primary bedroom with ensuite bathroom that is not seen here often in older houses. From the second story, there are sweeping views of Arkansas Foothills, Methodist Mountain and a really cool vantage point of the village. Vaulted 10’ ceilings in the living/dining area give the house a spacious feel with hours of afternoon light in the main living spaces. 2 more updated bedrooms are on the ground floor along with another bathroom, kitchen and a very generous, office/laundry/mudroom. Everything has been updated with storage in mind, with many closets throughout. New electric service, updating wiring, plumbing and heating/cooling systems. The back yard has a 6’ deer proof fence with garden space and room for expansion. An oversized 18x32’ two car garage also has a new electric panel and is complimented by an additional storage shed. There is alley access and an additional parking space which could be adjusted easily to fit a recreational vehicle. Salida is well known for a thriving arts scene, live music, world-class whitewater, hiking, biking, golfing, surfing and too many activities to list here. The recently expanded Monarch mountain is 25 minutes away. Multiple hot springs and hundreds of miles of trails, all within the valley. There are a variety of school choices, from primary to college within walking distance. All the these amenities and the largest historical district in the State, make for a culturally intoxicating and incredibly interesting place to call home. For sale by owner. Buyers agents welcome to show property.
