Description
This lovely Victorian home, nicknamed The Watermelon House, was built in 1900 & features two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Lovely wood floors are evident throughout the property, and there is a cozy wood insert/fireplace in the living room. Masterful woodwork from a bygone era graces each room and adds much character and charm to this darling house. The extra large bright and sunny windows offer amazing passive solar heat in the home. A large kitchen is on the back side of the house with room for a breakfast table or larger dining table. Just out the back kitchen door, you can plant your herbs and vegetables in the southern exposure- a canvas to create a beautiful garden. An east-facing bay window captures great light & makes for a cozy home for your plant babies. Recent updates include a radon mitigation system, a new hot water tank, A NEW ROOF, A NEW FURNACE, and newer plumbing. The property features a large, fenced yard with wildflower gardens and ornamental trees. There is one off-street parking space out back plus a small shed for toys & tools. This Victorian neighborhood features expansive yards and unique architectural details up and down the street and is a contributing area of the Idaho Springs historic designation district. Located minutes to Loveland Ski Area and within an hour's drive to 8 other world-class ski resorts, you'll love the central location of this property in the funky mountain town of Idaho Springs. It is also an easy walk to the downtown restaurants, shopping, services, the Clear Creek, and museums. Whether you're touring Mount Blue Sky, tubing Echo Mountain, soaking in the Indian Hot Springs Resort, or rafting/fishing the Clear Creek, it'll be a short walk or drive from this home! So call your favorite Realtor today, and come see The Watermelon House!
