427 S 4th Street

Montrose, CO 81401

This home, built in 1911, is on a street in the older part of Montrose, amidst other homes that have been remodeled to a high degree. When you enter the home from the enclosed front porch, there is a leaded glass window from a past century. On the enclosed front porch, you can still see the original porch columns. These older homes were sometimes remodeled in different decades resulting in a blend of styles. The kitchen is large and bright and features designer all metal cabinets in avocado green. There is a refrigerator and gas range . The washer and dryer are in an alcove off of the kitchen. No wasted steps here! By the time a meal is cooked, you've got that load of laundry dried and folded! The living room/dining room is spacious, allowing for ease of furniture placement. There are two bedrooms off this area with a full bath, featuring another icon of the past... a light pink, solid metal tub. Once you ran water for a hot bath, it stayed hot long enough to read a couple of chapters of your book! There is an enclosed back porch with lots of windows and light. The entrance to the unfinished basement is there, via a trap door. The heat is hot water baseboard and the furnace is in the basement. One thing for which we should all be grateful, is that the old coal furnace which was the original heat source, is no longer down there lurking like a monster! The water heater is there and is brand new as of this week. The home has 70 amps, which is not uncommon in older homes. Outside there is a crawl space entrance where the dryer duct is vented to the outside. The sewer line is newer and the widows are double pane vinyl. In the backyard there is a 480 sq. ft two car metal garage with an automatic door and a large work area. The carport is entered from the driveway and street and can be fenced off and locked. The garage can be entered from the yard for people and from the alley for vehicles. This area can also be locked off from the alley. This home is a little vignette of the past... a time that was a little slower, where neighbors sat out on their front porches on summer evenings visiting with each other. You could be a part of the continuing history of this home....
