Opportunity abounds at this historic home full of character and charm! This house built on "Professor's Row" has been owned by the same family for four generations, ad was built by the hands of the late Dr. Joe J. Lehman (CSU Professor of Chemistry for more than 40 years), his wife Eleanor, and other Fort Collins locals in the 1950s. The home itself boasts an exceptional build quality; however it is in need of some updating, you will be amazed at how the initial improvement have stood the test of time. The updates can be made by the next loving owner to make it their own. The house has been very lovingly cared for, with original hardwood floors on the main level and new carpeting in the fully finished basement. The roof was replaced just 10 years ago, and the wood-burning fireplace and chimney were fully renovated and renewed just five years back. The upstairs bathroom received a total makeover five years ago as well, and boasts updated tile and glass-block finishes. The dishwasher has only a few years' use, the five-year-old water heater is a higher end commercial grade, the furnace and A/C keep the temperature comfortable year round.
