Property Description

This historic Salida property is a true diamond in the rough, rich with character, original detail, and the kind of potential that is getting harder to find this close to downtown. Built in 1904, the home offers three bedrooms, 1.5 baths including a half bath upstairs, approximately 1,596 square feet, and sits on a generous 7,400 plus square foot lot just a half block from Alpine Park.
Inside, you will find original woodwork, transoms, and architectural elements that speak to a different era, all waiting for the right buyer to bring them back to life. The layout reflects its history, with spaces that offer charm along with the opportunity to reimagine and improve. The setting is what truly stands out. Located in one of Salida’s most desirable in town neighborhoods, you are close to downtown, parks, and the Arkansas River corridor. Fully restored homes in this area have considerable value, making this a compelling opportunity for someone with vision. This is not a move in ready property. The next owner will need to renovate and restore, but for the right buyer, the upside is significant. This property is being sold in "AS IS" condition, without any obligation on the part of the Seller to make repairs or improvements. Buyer retains the right to perform inspections pursuant to the Contract, however Seller shall have no obligation to agree to any inspection-related requests or concessions. This is a rare chance to take a classic Salida home and return it to its former grandeur while creating something truly special. Front porch is in poor condition. Use caution when entering the home.
