Charming in-town bungalow on a spacious corner lot in Salida. This 1947 home blends vintage character with everyday function. Arched openings, built-ins, and original trim add warmth throughout. The main level offers a true dining room with a classic built-in hutch, a bright kitchen with room for a table, mudroom off the kitchen to the garage, and a Jack-and-Jill three-quarter bath connecting the kitchen and primary bedroom. Two additional rooms upstairs provide flexible space for bedrooms, office, or studio use. The front yard is fenced with mature trees and sprinklers in both front and back. A covered porch offers shade, and the oversized detached garage is perfect for projects or storage. A standard carport provides additional covered parking. The 0.23-acre lot includes alley access, mountain views, and an easy walk or ride to downtown Salida. Just one block from Salida Elementary School, this home combines convenience, charm, and function in one of Salida’s most walkable neighborhoods.
