About this property
Elegant, clean, and comfortable ~ Historic DT Bungalow ~ Close to CC
Built in 1914, The Historic Bungalow will warm your heart and comfort your soul! Old world charm with updated amenities.
Great access to Colorado College (2 blocks) & Downtown Colorado Springs! Less than a 10 minute drive to Old Colorado City & Manitou Springs shops and entertainment, Garden of the Gods, Cave of the Winds, Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center, Bear Creek Dog Park. And approximately 20 minutes to Seven Falls, Broadmoor, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, Cog Railway and the gateway to Pikes Peak! Great hiking, biking, and strolling nearby. Delicious access to Downtown restaurants and breweries!
Getting around:
Located less than one mile from I-25 exit 143, It's easy to get anywhere in town. You'll only be 2 blocks from Colorado College. There is a local bus stop on our block within 5 minutes of the downtown terminal, and we are only 12 blocks from the downtown Greyhound Station.
Other things to note:
We live in a mostly quiet neighborhood and are centrally located to all Downtown shopping, dining, and amenities. Great access to all things wonderful downtown means that you can expect occasional evening activity in the area. We are in a safe, family friendly area that generally keeps to quiet hours after 11PM.

Why they chose this property
This house is absolutely delightful as well as functional. The area is fabulous and close to all things Downtown. We have strived to restore the Bungalow while retaining as many of the period (1913) characteristics as possible to give you a feeling of being immersed in this areas history and style. Having grown up in the Downtown Colorado Springs neighborhoods, this property provided a unique opportunity to care for and improve upon a place that is important to our family. We are taking on the family tradition of Bed and Breakfast-ing and excited for you to share it with us. We sincerely hope that our "Historic Bungalow" will keep you absolutely delighted at every turn!
What makes this property unique
A hidden garden paradise in the heart of DT! Walking distance (15-20 minutes) to DT shopping, breweries & restaurants, galleries, and only 2 blocks from Colorado College. Easy access to I-25 for day trips and travel.
