About This Home

As of August 2023

Known as the “Helen Duncan” home, this property was built in 1928 on the historic Montezuma Avenue in Cortez. It is said that Mrs. Duncan had a beauty shop at this residence in the 1930’s through 1950s. Finding a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home on Montezuma Avenue, that is eligible for the City Register of Historic Sites, is a rare find. This charming home with an updated kitchen, 2 full baths, and newly finished hardwood floors is waiting for it’s new owner. The newer, low maintenance roof, along with the freshly painted stucco, means you can enjoy this gem without having to worry about maintenance. The large fenced back yard offers plenty of shade from the mature trees that are on the property. This home is within walking distance of Grocery stores, downtown, and some of Cortez’s best dining locations. Opportunities like this don't come around often. Schedule your showing today!
