With nearly 2,600 of square feet, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence features a stucco exterior, three-over-one double-hung wood windows, side-gable roof, stucco chimney, quarter-width conical porch, conical tower, arched entry, and the charming, original attached one-car carriage house with half-timbering. Copper gutters and downspouts complement the synthetic hail-resistant roof while the conical tower is ensconsed in copper as well. Inside, a separate dining room, year-round sunroom, and numerous original built-ins add character, function, and timeless appeal. The main level also features two bedrooms and a remodeled bath. The lower level features a cozy family room and primary suite with many modern updates. Set on a double lot, the property offers an unusually expansive collection of outdoor spaces. A quaint gazebo complements the mature landscape, while a greenhouse, multiple gardens, raised garden beds, and a chicken coop create a unique garden setting. An irrigation well makes keeping everything healthy and green a breeze without the worry of watering restrictions. And a rare detached two-car garage, with workshop, is accessed from the alley and provides additional parking and storage. With its fairytale-cottage architecture, original carriage house, conical tower, arched entry, sunroom, built-ins, double lot, and exceptional garden features, 2221 Wood Avenue offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Colorado Springs history with character that simply cannot be replicated in a new home.
