About this home

A rare opportunity to own a beautifully maintained historic cottage on a corner lot in the heart of Manitou Springs. Walk to downtown for shops, restaurants, coffee, and the arcade, or step out your door for nearby trails and outdoor adventure. Rich with original character and thoughtfully updated for modern living, this inviting cottage welcomes you with a charming front porch and beautiful original hardwood floors. The fully fenced yard is a true rarity in Manitou, with grassy areas, established perennials, underground sprinklers, a private patio, and storage shed—creating a peaceful outdoor retreat. Extensive improvements provide both comfort and peace of mind, including a **complete electrical rewire, complete re-plumb, R-49 insulation, refreshed siding and paint, and carefully restored original windows with custom storm windows and screens**. The beautifully renovated kitchen was taken down to the studs and features Bridgewood cabinetry, quartzite countertops, an oak island, and smart Wi-Fi-connected appliances. The period-inspired bathroom retains the home's original clawfoot tub, professionally reglazed and complemented by updated fixtures. A renovated laundry/walk-in closet includes a new washer and dryer. Two driveways provide three off-street parking spaces—a rare luxury in Manitou Springs. The second bedroom is non-conforming and offers flexible space for an office, mudroom, or guest room. Thoughtfully improved without sacrificing its historic soul, this special home offers the character, outdoor space, parking, and location that make life in Manitou so distinctive. Come enjoy the porch, garden, trails, and everything this beloved mountain community has to offer.
