**A Diamond in the Rough: Your Next Grand Design Awaits!** Welcome to 426 E Bijou St, where history meets opportunity! This charming 1898 ranch-style home, nestled in the heart of Colorado Springs, offers 1,112 square feet of potential across 2 cozy bedrooms and a bathroom that's seen more history than your grandma's diary. THE GOOD STUFF: LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION: Situated just a stone's throw from downtown, you'll have easy access to local eateries, shops, and the vibrant culture of Colorado Springs. CHARACTER GALORE: Original hardwood floors that have stood the test of time (and probably a few dance parties). MODERN TOUCHES: A recently updated kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, ready for your culinary adventures or midnight snack raids. OUTDOOR OASIS: A nicely landscaped, low-maintenance backyard perfect for BBQs, stargazing, or practicing your yoga poses without an audience. **The 'Breaking Bad' News:** Yes, the property has tested positive for methamphetamine. But let's look at the silver lining—this is your chance to roll up your sleeves, don that hazmat suit (just kidding... sort of), and restore this beauty to its former glory. Think of it as the ultimate DIY project with a potentially lucrative payoff! Why You Should Say 'Yes' to This Address: INVESTMENT GOLDMINE: With the right renovations, this property could transform into a desirable residence or a chic office space, capitalizing on its prime location. CUSTOMIZATION: This is your blank canvas to design a space that reflects your style, whether it's modern minimalism or vintage Victorian. BRAGGING RIGHTS: How many people can say they've turned a 'meth house' into the 'best house' on the block? **Next Steps:** Bring your vision & your contractor to This Opportunity! *Note: Professional remediation is required to ensure the property meets health and safety standards. Please consult with local authorities and professionals before proceeding.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
