2921 W Platte Ave House

Spacious Inside and Out

A rare find in Old Colorado City within walking distance of everything and biking distance to the Garden of the Gods and Red Rock Open Space with quick, easy access to Hwy 24. This is a four-bedroom home on a double-lot with... a small urban farm set-up in the fenced backyard including a chicken coop. The living room has a full brick fireplace with a gas insert, and a large dining area walks out to a rear covered patio. There is a spacious kitchen with cherry wood cabinets, under cabinet lighting, overhead lighting, stainless-steel finished, new appliances, a pantry, soft closure doors and drawers, and two lazy Susan corner cabinets. The large master bedroom on main floor can also be used as an office or a den. Full bathroom on main floor has a tile surround bathtub as well as tile flooring. Second story contains three more bedrooms and another full bathroom with tile surround bathtub, tile floors, and tile countertops with double sinks. Vaulted ceilings make this second story even more light and bright with views of Pikes Peak from the bedrooms. Another rare addition to the home is the 24' x 24' attached, two-car garage with remote entry as well as a concrete two-car driveway with alley access. This home is situated on a double lot (zoned R-4) with a 6' cedar privacy fence and two locking gates in the backyard, a five zone Toro Sprinkler system, a concrete patio, and a covered deck. The backyard also has a small, urban farm area with a 12x18 ft garden, a 200 sq ft greenhouse, and a chicken coop with a covered run area large enough for up to 6 chickens. There is a laundry room off the garage entrance and washer and dryer are included, built in bookshelves in the living room and at the stairwell landing, and a cozy nook area with hardwood floors right off of the kitchen. The house is also equipped with a swamp cooler for the warmer months. Dogs and cats are considered after initial meeting. Read More
