Preserved in time, historic home. This sweet house is still in it's "simple swing on the front porch" era. Originally built in 1911, you can see the care that was put into the craftsmanship. The exterior is beautiful four-sided brick with a slate roof. The covered front porch is in great condition with solid wood floor and sturdy columns. Inside has been impeccably cared for. The living room has over 300 sqft of hardwood floors that also carry into the two bedrooms. The stately trim around the windows and door frames, the baseboards, and the solid wood doors are a classic finish that will look great with any modernized updates on this home. Wallpaper lines the walls of the bedrooms as if it was installed weeks ago. As was fairly standard for the time this house was built, there is only one bath off the kitchen. There is storage available where there is any room to put it. Vintage appliances are left in the kitchen. It is a spacious room with really simple and efficient cabinets and counterspace. There is a laundry room and a small butler's pantry off the back of the house. Classic to these homes, you will find the cellar access in the back beside the concrete steps down to the sidewalk. It's all very clean and ready for you to give it a facelift or leave it as is for years to come. The yard is big enough to add an ADU or detached garage. An existing single door detached garage is by the alley, which is currently great for extra storage or shop space. This property is located at E St and 8th, only a few blocks from downtown Salida. Easily walk or ride a bike to the shops and restaurant the city has to offer. Of course, Salida is surrounded by mountain recreation including the Arkansas River that cuts through the heart of the city. It is a wonderful place to call home!
