27951 Columbine Rd, Evergreen, CO 80439

Are you looking for a home with character and charm? This home was remodeled in 2007 to retain a lot of the original 1929 personality. Yes, there have been additions and upgrades since that time, (including new stainless steel appliances) but the home embraces a style of simple elegance and craftsmanship not frequently seen. For instance there are carpeted rooms but there are also original hardwood floors of oak, and some in yellow pine. There are original wood windows with old-fashioned latches combined with screens and storms for warmth and practicality. This home provides for possible single level living. Everything you need can be accessed without the need to use stairs. There is plenty of additional living area, however, that does use stairs. The flexibility of use is all here. The quiet, private, and treed setting will provide hours of enjoyment while dining on the outside wood deck. Watch the deer and the elk roam while drinking your morning coffee on the flagstone patio. Only two homes access their properties on this road, after passing this home. There are four homes in total, on this section of Columbine Road. French doors greet you upon entry, to provide both ambiance and a weather buffer. The large living and dining room areas have a rough-sawn wood ceiling with a skylight, original oak hardwood flooring and a wood burning fireplace. There is a pass-through to the kitchen, where you will find maple cabinets, new in 2007, and an original yellow pine floor with its past character in place, nail holes and all. There are two separate breakfast bars, a pantry, and a greenhouse window. Another set of French doors leads to the large main level master suite. Vaulted ceiling with skylights make this a very sunny room which opens out onto the deck through double doors. The 3/4 master bath includes a stackable washer and dryer. The large cedar-lined walk-in closet includes two built-in dressers. Follow the stairs inside the master suite to a loft area with attached large finished storage area to use as your imagination allows. The lower level features two separate entrances. A third set of French doors provides a perfect separate entrance for a home office, for instance. A kitchenette gives a coffee and snack bar for this level of the home. A large recreation room, full bathroom, and full laundry room on this level provide for a flexibility of use for this level of the home. There is a chimney flue in place, ready for your choice of a wood stove or a gas stove if you should so desire. Privacy, beautiful neighborhood, ease of access from downtown Evergreen, large living area, early century architecture, puts this home in a unique category. The county maintains the paved roadway to within 25 yards of this home with neighbors pitching in for those remaining 25 yards on a snowy day. The exterior of the home is cared for with a low-maintenance stain. With space to add a carport, or other exterior out-building, this home is ready for whatever you'd like to create. This is mountain living at its finest.
