Listing details for 1618 Alamo Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80907 : Welcome home to this beautiful turn of the century home in Historic Old North End. Within walking distance you will find Colorado Springs's thriving downtown, Colorado College, Museums and the Pikes Peak Center. Within a 5 minute walk is Monument Valley Park and the New Sante Fe Regional Trail. Surround yourself with the old world charm of wide streets, architecturally diverse homes and lush gardens. This family has owned this home for 50 years, and has maintained the property with love and perfection. Hardwood floors beckon you throughout the home, accompanied by timeless wide trim, crown molding and luxury wall paper. Enter into a large formal living room with great windows for natural light and a wood burning fireplace. A large formal dining room off the kitchen is where memories are made. The kitchen is very large and open, with a walk out to the back yard patio space. The owner has a love for gardening and in the summer the backyard is a true oasis, landscaped for color year-round. A library completes the main floor, with built in book shelves and a fireplace. If you are working from home, there truly is not a better setting than this library. Retreat to the master suite upstairs where you will be greeted with another wood burning fireplace, views of Pikes Peak and spacious master bathroom. The master has his/hers closets which is a perk in an older home. 2 more bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the upstairs space. The basement offers an additional bedroom or recreation room, with laundry and a half bath. A hidden basement is off the family room/kitchen, this area is great storage. Between the charming, yet updated interior spaces and the old world community surrounding it, this home leaves little to be desired!
