Beautifully-maintained house on a huge lot in the heart of Paonia! Built in 1903, this move-in-ready home is a perfect combination of old-time-charm exterior and sunny, attractively-appointed interior. Fabulous custom bookshelves make the living room sparkle and the eat-in kitchen sports both a sweet breakfast nook and a pantry (you get to pick the shelves). Two bedrooms, a full bath and a west-facing sun room with its own entrances (guest room potential!) complete the main floor. With almost 600 square feet, the unfinished basement features a laundry area with washer and dryer and could accommodate a family room or extra bedroom and bath. The seller reports that the unfinished attic is high enough to stand up in; it could therefore be converted into a spacious office, studio, bedroom or meditation space. Backing up to the quiet side of the town park (put a gate in the fence for easy access!), the .39-acre lot supports numerous flowering and shade trees, shrubs and grape vines. Improvements include an adorable one-room cottage/guest house with electricity, a one-car detached garage and a garden shed.
