A rare opportunity in the heart of Old Town Fort Collins. Offered for the first time in over 30 years, this iconic turn-of-the-century American Foursquare sits proudly on a beautiful corner lot in the desirable Laurel School Historic District. Rich in character, this lovingly-maintained home showcases timeless details including a welcoming front porch, original wood floors, wide trim, pocket doors, built-ins, and period cabinetry that speak to its storied past. The main floor offers versatile living spaces with a cozy living room, formal dining area with bay window, and a front office or potential main-level bedroom. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a flex room, and a convenient laundry area. The finished third floor features a charming one-bedroom furnished apartment with rear staircase access-ideal for guests, extended family, or as an income-generating rental. An unfinished basement and oversized two-car garage with loft space above provides ample storage and options for more usable space--a rarity for Old Town. Step out back to discover a secluded courtyard, complete with a serene sitting area and sauna, plus a spacious side yard with large pergola-perfect for entertaining or enjoying quiet evenings under the trees. Surrounded by lush, thoughtfully planted perennials that bloom throughout the growing season, this home offers not just beauty but a true sense of place. Enjoy peaceful, tree-lined streets, charming homes in every direction, and unbeatable proximity to CSU, and all the dining, shopping, and culture of Old Town Fort Collins.
