Wildlife is a frequent part of the surroundings, creating a setting that feels remarkably connected to nature while still being located in Glenwood Springs. The three bedroom, one bath main home has seen thoughtful updates over the years while retaining the character and history that make it so special. Recent improvements include a metal roof, updated bathroom, exterior staining, and an updated city water line from the street to the home. Above the detached garage, the separate one bedroom, one bath apartment provides additional living space and is equipped with a mini split system. An additional outbuilding offers convenient space for storage and a variety of other uses. Properties with this combination of river frontage, land, additional living space, outbuildings, and generations of history rarely come to market. Whether enjoying a quiet morning beside the Roaring Fork, watching wildlife pass through, or simply appreciating the setting along the river, 1205 Riverside Drive offers an opportunity to experience a truly special piece of Glenwood Springs.
