This charming 1898 ranch-style home, nestled in the heart of Colorado Springs, offers 1,112 square feet of potential across 2 cozy bedrooms and a bathroom that's seen more history than your grandma's diary. THE GOOD STUFF: LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION: Situated just a stone's throw from downtown, you'll have easy access to local eateries, shops, and the vibrant culture of Colorado Springs. CHARACTER GALORE: Original hardwood floors that have stood the test of time (and probably a few dance parties). MODERN TOUCHES: A recently updated kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, ready for your culinary adventures or midnight snack raids. OUTDOOR OASIS: A nicely landscaped, low-maintenance backyard perfect for BBQs, stargazing, or practicing your yoga poses without an audience. **The 'Breaking Bad' News:** Yes, the property has tested positive for methamphetamine.

Think of it as the ultimate DIY project with a potentially lucrative payoff! Why You Should Say 'Yes' to This Address: INVESTMENT GOLDMINE: With the right renovations, this property could transform into a desirable residence or a chic office space, capitalizing on its prime location. CUSTOMIZATION: This is your blank canvas to design a space that reflects your style, whether it's modern minimalism or vintage Victorian. BRAGGING RIGHTS: How many people can say they've turned a 'meth house' into the 'best house' on the block? **Next Steps:** Bring your vision & your contractor to This Opportunity! *Note: Professional remediation is required to ensure the property meets health and safety standards. Please consult with local authorities and professionals before proceeding. Please note: Showings will begin on 5/14/25
