Welcome to 940 Gay Street, where timeless charm and everyday comfort come together on one of the largest lots on the block. Tucked beneath a canopy of mature trees and surrounded by lush gardens, this 1941 cottage invites you in from the moment you arrive. The front porch swing is perfect for slow mornings, and the private backyard offers a peaceful retreat for birdwatching, relaxing, or gathering with friends. Inside, you'll find a home full of warmth and character. Original wood floors, updated paint throughout, and thoughtful touches in every space. The main level features two comfortable bedrooms and a refreshed full bath. Upstairs, a cozy retreat wrapped in beetle kill pine is currently used as the primary bedroom and adds to the home's charm and flexibility. A spacious, detached two-car garage with alley access offers room for storage, hobbies, or creative space. With updated flooring, a redone sprinkler system (2025), new roof, this home is truly move-in ready. Just blocks to Roosevelt Park and all the shops and restaurants of downtown Longmont, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Old Town's heart and it is on a lot that gives you room to breathe, grow, and feel at home.
