Welcome to this inviting 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home in the heart of Lincoln Park, offering a comfortable layout, timeless character, and updates that make it move-in ready. The home sits on a corner lot with a fully fenced backyard shaded by mature trees, perfect for outdoor enjoyment. Owned by the same family since 1978, it has just been refreshed with brand-new carpet throughout, a brand-new roof, and a brand-new electrical panel for peace of mind. Step inside to a welcoming living room with a picture window that frames the lush front lawn and planter-lined entry sidewalk. The adjoining dining area is conveniently located next to the kitchen, which includes all appliances, a desirable gas stove, and even the washer and dryer. A half bath and laundry room are ideally placed between the kitchen and attached garage for everyday ease. Toward the back of the home, a spacious family room centers around a cozy fireplace, creating a warm space for gatherings. Just beyond is an enclosed sunroom with new indoor/outdoor carpet—a versatile bonus space that works well for hobbies, plants, or casual lounging, though it is not heated. All three bedrooms are located on the west end of the home, with two corner bedrooms featuring windows on two walls to provide natural light and refreshing cross breezes. The main 3/4 bath offers a walk-in shower and is conveniently located near the bedrooms. With its thoughtful layout, major updates, generous living spaces, and long-term pride of ownership, this property is clean, vacant, and truly move-in ready. Priced under $300,000 for a quick sale, this is a fantastic opportunity to own a comfortable home in one of Cañon City’s most desirable neighborhoods.
