About This Home

As of August 2020

Don't miss this Downtown Fruita charmer! Built in 1902, this home is packed with character, but has been tastefully updated to be both modern and energy efficient. Inside you'll find original exposed brick and wood floors, a remodeled kitchen, new HVAC and new windows. A beautiful master suite was added in 2005, and includes a loft upstairs. This would make a great third bedroom or office. Detached 2-car garage contains extra storage shelves and a large shop with workbench and 220 power. Xeriscaped yard is impeccable and features a unique porch swing, glass artwork, reclaimed brick walkway and a lavender garden. Solar power system is owned, so say goodbye to expensive electric bills.
