About This Home
As of October 2025Welcome to 1301 Colorado Ave SE! First time available in 20 years, this move-in ready home boasts the perfect blend of classic features and modern updates.
Inside you'll find gorgeous original wood floors, a bright front living room with a gas fireplace, and curved ceilings that showcase the home's character. A 2016 renovation reconfigured the main level, creating open flow into the updated kitchen—showcasing Jenn-Air appliances, subway tile backsplash, farmhouse sink, custom countertops, and a stunning barnwood bar top. The kitchen connects to a spacious dining area and a cheerful breakfast nook with built-in bench seating, a half bath, and a sharp four-season porch.
Upstairs, the large primary bedroom offers two closets and plenty of natural light. Two additional ample-sized bedrooms and a charming full bathroom with classic tilework complete the level. Original wood floors are throughout, and one bedroom includes access to a unique second-floor deck overlooking the yard. The finished lower level offers a sharp family room with built-ins, a barn door, and a great space for entertainment. A thoughtfully-designed laundry room with sink, folding station, chute from both levels, and built-in lockers sits next to an additional full bathroom. Unfinished space provides storage, a workshop area, and a brand-new furnace and A/C! (August 2025).
Outside, there is tons of curb appeal with stone accents and mature landscaping. The spacious fenced-in yard offers a nice brick patio and even an all-sports court (perfect for pickleball)! A detached garage sits off the quiet side street, with easy on-street parking available as well.
All of this in a highly desirable Grand Rapids location! Nestled in a neighborhood just blocks from Hall Street Bakery, Grand Rapids Christian Elementary, and Cambridge Park - and only a 5-minute drive to Gaslight Village, Eastown, and Reeds Lake - you'll enjoy both convenience and community right at your doorstep. This is the one you've been waiting for - schedule your showing today!!
