Listing details for 115 W Columbia St, Colorado Springs, CO 80907 : Exceptional mid-century modern home brings the outdoors inside! Take this rare opportunity to own The Beadles House, one of the city's most remarkable historic homes! Designed by renowned architects Ingraham and Ingraham, this striking contemporary home offers a peaceful retreat minutes from downtown. Crafted from redwood, brick and glass, its Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired design remains virtually unchanged. This 2 BR/2 BA home, with a 1 BR guest house, combines hand-crafted interiors with beautiful outdoor spaces. As you pass through the private entrance, your eye is instantly pulled down the central hallway to the back of the house. Strong horizontal lines in the redwood paneling and tile flooring give the home an open, expansive feeling that belies its 2200 square feet. Mitered window corners connect interior and outdoor spaces, allowing a more intimate experience with nature. Brick fireplaces, carved beams, tiled mosaics and Japanese design elements add texture. An original Josef Albers-inspired mural by local artist Eric Bransby gives a touch of color to the home's natural decor. The interior of this home was thoughtfully designed by renowned local craftsman, Ed Bodenstein. Hidden closets and clever built-in cabinets provide ample storage while remaining unobtrusive. Vertical elements, like the huge floor to ceiling windows, provide a contrast to the horizontal planes throughout the home. Large, eye-level windows in the bedrooms allow soothing views of the shade gardens and picnic areas which grace the property. The brick courtyard and gardens were designed to mirror the low-lying architecture of the home. OR: UTILITY/PANTRY STORAGE
