Featured Property
704 W. Cucharras St – Colorado Springs, CO
Amazing custom renovation of an 1898 classic Victorian home plus cottage on the West side! Exquisite original woodwork, fireplace with custom in-lay tile, leaded glass, formal parlor with antique parlor bench, multiple sunrooms and sided scalloped gables all showcase this turn of the century home.
A custom lattice arbor welcomes you to the main house and its sweeping front porch, renovated with composite, maintenance-free decking and leading into either the formal front parlor or a curved side entrance to the main-level sunroom. The original front door boasts beautiful custom woodwork and edged glass, and the spacious parlor opens to formal living and dining areas with leaded glass, beamed ceilings, bay window, original pocket doors and an exquisite, sparkling European chandelier. Warm hardwood floors flow through the main level and accent the ornate Van Briggle fireplace and original built-in china cabinets, and soft lantern lighting throughout the home highlights the beautifully preserved Victorian details.
The gourmet kitchen has been remodeled with intricately cut Bordeaux slab granite, American Woodwork cabinets in Victorian mocha glaze, and top of the line stainless steel appliances including a stainless refrigerator with bottom-drawer freezer and digital display, single-bowl stainless steel sink, and a duel fuel, gas slide-in oven with a gourmet bakers pot-filler above. An intricately cut granite wall runs over the oven to the custom-built oven hood, and the incredible in-lay tile floor with a unique medallion centerpiece complements the granite and the glass-faced kitchen cabinets. A large walk-in pantry with a glass door, a 2nd pantry near the oven, and accent lighting throughout showcase the workmanship in this beautiful gourmet kitchen, and the in-lay tile continues throughout the main-level sunroom and large mudroom/utility room.
The main-level master suite features a walk-in closet, bay window and dramatic tiered ceilings accented by lantern lighting, and the beautiful bath has granite countertops, copper sinks, and original tile work. A carved staircase leads to the upper level and a second sunroom/office, as well as two additional spacious bedrooms with designer carpet and beautiful mountain views. The upper-level bath boasts tiled chair rail, frosted awning windows, a vanity with a copper sink and custom lighting.
Stone steps lead from the home to the garage and the beautifully landscaped and fenced yard with curved rock pathways, cobblestone patio, retaining walls, and mulched flower beds. The home’s exterior boasts custom-sided scalloped gables done in four designer color accents. Filled with character and exquisite details, this home also features new electrical and plumbing throughout, in-floor heating, newer water heater, newly installed HVAC, and a certified roof.
The 1400 square foot cottage included with the home could be a single-family home in itself with a living area/office space, 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, a full kitchen, and an attached garage, and features a new roof, new flooring, and new stucco exterior with Victorian pop-outs.
