This thoughtfully updated mid‑century home at 1809 Grand Ave pairs vintage character with modern convenience and multiple ways to own or earn. The 2,214 SF layout is currently presented as a duplex: a bright, spacious upper suite and a fully functional lower unit—ideal for a homeowner who wants rental income or an investor seeking turnkey occupancy. Inside, tasteful updates preserve period lines while introducing comfortable finishes. A highlight of the property is the pergola‑covered deck, where evening sunsets and post‑work gatherings take center stage. The fully fenced yard includes multiple raised garden beds and a charming she‑shed — perfect for gardening, hobbies or a quiet retreat.
Practical daily living is addressed with parking designed for mountain life: a one‑car garage plus four off‑street spaces and designated RV parking for toys or long‑term visitors. The lot’s generous footprint (7,700 SF) is rare for a centrally located parcel and supports both entertaining and storage needs. The home’s flexible arrangement opens many options: occupy the upstairs and rent the lower level, lease both units for stable cashflow, or combine into one spacious single‑family residence.
Location is a true advantage. A short stroll takes you to Sayre Park and nearby neighborhood eateries; downtown Glenwood Springs, the river corridor, trailheads and hot springs are just minutes away. Whether you’re drawn to year‑round outdoor recreation, local dining, or short commutes, this property delivers lifestyle and convenience. Offered at $899,000, this mid‑century duplex is a rare, centrally located opportunity that balances character, modern updates and income flexibility.
