Storybook charm meets modern updates in this turn-of-the-century cottage, nestled in the heart of sought-after Cheyenne Canon-one of Colorado Springs' most walkable and scenic neighborhoods. This well-maintained home features extensive electrical upgrades completed in July 2025 for enhanced safety, efficiency, and peace of mind. Improvements include a new indoor panel, exterior electrical disconnect, professional removal of knob and tube wiring, rewiring at each device, whole-house surge protection, proper grounding, and a full service upgrade. Additional improvements include a brand-new furnace (2025), roof (2020), exterior paint (2019), and refinished wood floors (2019). Inside, enjoy a cozy living room with a fireplace, a dining room with built-in shelves, and generous built-in storage throughout. Upstairs, two bedrooms provide peaceful retreats. The primary bedroom feels like a treehouse hideaway, wrapped in windows-perfect for listening to the nearby creek and distant chimes from the Will Rogers Shrine. The private, fenced backyard is ideal for pets and al fresco dining, with a raised deck nestled among the trees. Backyard concrete and landscaping were redone in 2017. Low-maintenance gardens feature blooming perennials and edible herbs like chives and horseradish. Enjoy walkability to Seven Falls, North Cheyenne Canon Park, Stratton Open Space, Strawberry Fields, Starsmore Nature Center, Sacred Grounds cafe, and top-rated D12 schools. Minutes to the Broadmoor Resort, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, and a direct bus route to downtown. A rare find with historic character, smart updates, and unbeatable access to Colorado's natural beauty.
