Charming, sweet treasure of a home located near the Saguache Downtown National Historic District with wonderful history of its own! This home is designed with 2 living spaces that can be used together or separately. Both sides are suited well for guest quarters or rental income! TWO full working kitchens! Both spaces have open floor plans and lots of natural light. The walls are double brick providing wonderful cooling in the summer and keeping in the heat in the winter. The membrane and iso-board insulation roof is 2 1/2 years old. The clothes dryer is 1 year old. The clothes washer is 3 years old. The dishwasher is 3 years old, but hardly used. A new electrical panel was installed in 2022. The furnace was new in 2021 and the Rinnai was installed in 2022. Luxury vinyl plank flooring on the west side was installed in 2021. The gate leading to the private courtyard and east side entrance was built in 2021 by a master woodworker and former woodshop teacher at Saguache High School in 2021. The intricate gate design is a Japanese technique learned during mentorship in Japan. Both spaces have their own private backyard or courtyard sanctuaries with flowering and fruit bearing trees and a fire pit in the courtyard (hidden garden). Seller has complete renovation floorplan done by a licensed architect that would convert the existing duplex to one living unit. Value: $10,000, should a buyer be interested.
