About 246 Palmer St

Turn-of-the-Century Remodeled Home on Double Corner Lot – Downtown Salida This beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath home with a bonus room sits on a rare double corner lot in the heart of downtown Salida. Originally built in the early 1900s, this home was completely taken down to the studs and rebuilt over the past five years—essentially a new home with timeless character and all modern systems.The open-concept layout features a spacious living room, dining area, and a fully remodeled kitchen with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, new appliances, and vented hood. Oversized windows flood the home with natural light, highlighting the new hickory hardwood floors in the living areas and bedrooms, with tile in the kitchen and back sunroom/office, and porcelain tile in the bathroom. Both bedrooms are generously sized, and the beautifully renovated full bathroom offers stylish finishes. A rear bonus room—ideal for a sunroom, studio, or home office—opens to the fenced backyard, where you'll find mature landscaping, including five aspens and two apple trees. This was a labor of love and a complete rebuild: all new electrical wiring (prewired for an EV charger), new PEX water lines, a new 4" PVC sewer line to the alley, radiant Cove electric heating, and comprehensive re-insulation with blown fiberglass and spray foam (no batts). All windows, doors, trim, and walls are brand new, and the home is wired with coax and Cat 5 for high-speed internet. Additional improvements include an attached carport, an 8'x8' shed with 8-foot ceilings, a potting shed, and a finished artist shed with windows and drywall. There's also a Salida-style garage off the alley, and the rear of the property is prepped and ready for an ADU. Located on a quiet, wide street just blocks from downtown Salida’s shops, restaurants, galleries, and the Arkansas River, this property offers charm, modern comfort, and rare in-town space—with room to grow.
