840 Ute Ave, Grand Junction, CO 81501

A little gem of a historic house originally built in 1895, this place is rented by a private owner and has been fully updated and remarkably well cared for with some of the best original features preserved, like a claw-foot tub, brass railing along the stairs and a built-in wooden china hutch. Centrally located and highly walkable, the home is just a couple of blocks to downtown coffee bars, restaurants, theaters, festivals and parades. The home has one bed and bath upstairs and one bed and bath downstairs. It has newer appliances, a redwood deck in back that gets shade in the afternoon and an off-street, covered parking spot. 8' x 8' garden shed to store items like a bicycle or camping equipment. No one lives next door, so lots of privacy. Sprinklers are on an automatic sprinkler system so watering is done for you. Weed control on non-turf areas is provided by the landlord. There is a raised planter out back and a hose if you want to plant flowers or vegetables. The home has a swamp cooler, hot water baseboard heat and a laundry room with washer and dryer. The kitchen has a ventilated copper hood over a glass-top electric range, a butcher block countertop, a microwave, fridge and dishwasher. Wired for cable TV and/or high speed Internet. No pets and no smoking allowed anywhere on the property. Employer(s), former landlord and character references required and checked.
