Description

Let this Old Town Lafayette home delight you! The historic Evans house has been lovingly refinished to shine in its best light. Brought up to modern standards while maintaining its charm, this craftsman-style ranch home features a fully remodeled and highly functional kitchen and bathroom with modern tile, cabinets, bath, vanity and fixtures. The home was recently refreshed with all new paint, carpet and energy-efficient double pane Marvin windows. You will fall in love with the historic details, namely the beautiful century-old, long-cut pine floors and period touches such as the rich wood trim that outlines all doorways and accents every room. With nearly 10 ft ceilings, this home lives larger than its footprint. The layout is wonderful with a cozy living room adjacent to a formal dining room, now accented with designer modern lighting. Each of the bedrooms will invite you in and delight you in its bright and airy feel. The primary bedroom has a spacious closet and new carpeting. Enjoy long lazy days of summer on your wraparound porch and admire your corner lot with its lovely landscaped and xeriscaped front/side yard complete with river rock, drought-resistant native grasses and flowering trees. The 7000+SF fenced backyard provides wonderful space for entertaining, letting a dog out or potentially adding an ADU (verify with the city). Live your best lifestyle in Old Town Lafayette at 201 E. Chester Street, located one block from popular Public Street, this home will be your basecamp for adventure and exploration. Favorite stomping grounds include Vintry, Teocali Mexican, East Simpson Coffee, Public Wines, Eats & Sweets, The Post, the Wow Children's Museum and the Lafayette Rec Center. Neighbors love to gather at these local treasures or meet for a walk or bike ride to nearby Waneka Lake. Enjoy living in a period home that has wonderful character and offers all the convenience of Lafayette being just 20 minutes to Boulder and 30 minutes to Denver.

What Locals Say about Lafayette

  • Ava C.
    "This area by Waneka lake is a gem. Close to nearly everything yet a little breathing room with some of the most breathtaking views in Lafayette. Great for exercise and great for bird lovers and nearly every demographic. My favorite place in CO so far to live."
