Foreclosures are a very interesting sector of our market here in Colorado Springs. I've shown some that previous residents have stripped to the bones including removing plumbing, appliances, cabinets, doors, carpet, toilets, fireplace inserts, and even faceplates. Makes you wonder what the resale value is on a 69 cent faceplate but such is found here in the Springs.
However, today I'm holding an open house at one of the best deals in Colorado Springsand right here in Indigo Ranch. Curb appeal greets you from the street and the front patio welcomes you home; nothing here that says "I'm a neglected property." Just inside, the foyer is warm and inviting with 2 skylights above, access to the two car garage, entrance to the clean spacious great room with a wood burning fireplace and walk out to the fully fenced backyard with views of the Peak. The kitchen can certainly meet the expectations of any buyer with a nook for that favorite bistro table, large pantry, tons of counter space, a bonus desk niche, and hard wood floors. The only thing missing is one's own choice of refrigerators.
A main level master suite includes cedar inlays in the walk in, a spacious 5 piece bath with plantation shutters for privacy and a French door accent. The vaulted ceiling enhances the space and the natural light pouring in makes it a wonderful retreat. Right next to the master on the main level is a second bedroom with French door accents that can either be the main level office or second bedroom nearby. A guest bathroom completes the main level living space.
The fully finished basement adds an additional 1300 square feet of living space including 2 very large bedrooms, a full bath, separate laundry room, and great dry storage. The L shaped family room has great natural light making it bright, inviting, and with tons of potential. Only a couple of small stains mar the otherwise perfect carpet and the few dings in the drywall give an indication that this was at one time owner occupied.
Of the 25 homes currently active in the Indigo Ranch area, this particular Classic Model is a screaming deal at $209,900 which is a little over $80 per square foot well under the average $90-$100 per sq. foot typically found in Indigo Ranch. The very affordable HOA is an attractive feature of the neighborhood as well as location to the Powers corridor and its vast array of shops and restaurants.
5919 Brennan Avenue is truly one of those hidden gems that when purchased will not disappoint the savvy buyer that takes advantage of the price per square foot fully finished turn key property that needs nothing more than a little fresh paint, a refrigerator, and décor.
