About This Home

There is something wonderfully familiar about this classic Trinidad home. Built in 1956 and set on approximately 1.7 acres, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath approx 1215 sq ft home has all the warmth and character of the quintessential grandma's house--the kind of place that simply feels like home the moment you walk in. A covered front porch welcomes you inside to a spacious living room with large windows, a gas fireplace and plenty of natural light. The cheerful kitchen has classic black-and-white flooring, generous counter space and an adjoining dining area, while a separate dining room offers additional space for gathering. A utility room and den/flex space provide even more room to spread out. Outside is where this property really shines. The mostly level acreage offers an abundance of usable outdoor space surrounded by mature trees, with lawn, fenced areas and plenty of room for gardens, pets, projects or simply enjoying the privacy and peaceful setting. A detached single-car garage, separate shop/barn and additional storage provide even more possibilities. With its vintage charm, comfortable floor plan and hard-to-find acreage, this well-loved home is ready for someone new to make it their own.

Please note: There is no real estate sign at the property. This is not a drive-by. Please respect the owner's privacy and do not enter the property or disturb the owner without a confirmed appointment.
