Highlights: Your home search has just been rewarded! It’s as close to a relationship with your home as you might ever feel. It’s about feeling the energy that resonates through these walls, through these rooms and throughout the private outdoor living space which reminds you that you’re home and that everything’s right! 

Situated on a west-facing, large lot just steps from Historic Chautauqua Park, this traditional ranch-style home in coveted Chautauqua Heights evokes a sense of bygone days, where time moves a bit more slowly and where you can slow down and step away from the everyday.

This home has been so well maintained by the current owners. If you want to live in this location and consider a renovation you will find it here. Or if you want to live in this location and have a turnkey home, you will find it here. When you talk to friends about all the feels, this property is what you were talking about. When you asked for quiet neighborhood with close access to open space trails and mountain parks, this is what you envisioned.

Pull up the Adirondack chairs on the large covered front porch and relax, a brief respite from the summer sun. The west facing backyard living space is like no other. A sense of tranquility and privacy emanates from every corner of this 12,400 sqft lot and with pathways that connect you to a thriving ecosystem, sharing space with several tree species and where bees and hummingbirds share sweet nectar and birds sing their welcome song. Let this home take you away to another place and time - where the wind is the music.

If this home has a soul, and it does, then the main living area may well be the heart. With intentional and functional design it greets you with a nostalgic warmth. The original hardwood floors, worn smooth by generations of footsteps, are laid throughout the entire main floor. The living room is cozy, with a large picture window, a fireplace and vintage crown molding. The dining room will seat a large table for sharing moments around meals and stories with friends and family. The bright, open kitchen with an eat-in dining nook and large pantry, faces the covered patio and backyard. A small breakfast nook offers a charming spot to enjoy a morning coffee, with the sounds of nature filtering in through an open window. It’s been a long day, hang your coat and hat and kick your hiking boots in the tiled mudroom. 

You’ve found a simple and functional floorpan with two bathrooms and three bedrooms upstairs. One of the upstairs bedrooms is currently outfitted as an office/den space. Retreat to a large bedroom and bathroom suite downstairs where it stays cool all day and night long. This lower level has a family room with another fireplace, storage and laundry rooms with easy walk-out to back yard.

And whether for your vehicles or for your toys, this home is equipped with an oversized, 2-bay garage and overhead storage. There’s also a large garden shed on the north side of the home. 

The back of the home opens up to a vast, sun-soaked yard, where the possibilities are endless—perhaps a garden, a play area, or simply a place to relax and soak in the vibe of the nearby park and its fabled Flatirons aura.

When they talk about relationships, this home was built for it. It is a home that will understand and respond to renovations. It’s listening. Are you?

There’s a soul that resonates here. We want you to feel it. Welcome to 757 8th Street - the Sigma Oasis!
