Whether you keep it as-is, rent it out, remodel, expand, add an ADU, or redevelop this prime corner lot, the possibilities are endless. Just steps from Lee Martinez Park and the Poudre River Trail, and close to Old Town's shopping, dining, and entertainment, this low-traffic, alley-access location is hard to beat. In the past five years, the refrigerator, water heater, washer, and dryer have all been replaced, and a radon mitigation system has been installed. Over the last decade, the home has seen new windows, added insulation, backyard xeriscaping, fresh exterior paint, a rear composite deck, and a back sidewalk. High ceilings in the main living area fill the space with natural light, creating an airy, open feel. The backyard boasts a large maple tree for shade and year-round color, plus a composite deck ideal for dining or entertaining. A detached garage, storage shed, off-street parking, and potential for an ADU (with city approval) offer flexibility, while updates like modern appliances, cedar privacy fencing, extra insulation, and energy-efficient windows bring style and peace of mind. Pre-inspected, with a second living space and an office or non-conforming bedroom downstairs, there's also potential to add an egress window and well, pending city approval. Most recently rented for $2,400 per month.
