548 E 3rd Street

A rare opportunity to own a charming in-town bungalow with the LOCATION parking, and storage that are incredibly hard to find in downtown Salida. Situated on one of the city's most picturesque tree-lined streets, directly across from a quaint pocket park, this property offers a peaceful neighborhood setting while placing you just a few easy, walkable blocks from the Arkansas River, restaurants, shops, galleries, and all that historic downtown Salida has to offer.
This inviting 2-bedroom, 1-bath home combines classic character with thoughtful updates, including fresh interior paint, hardwood floors in the living room and one bedroom, and durable vinyl flooring in the kitchen and second bedroom. The full bath features tile flooring, beadboard wainscoting, and vintage-inspired tin-style ceiling panels for added charm. The kitchen offers freshly painted cabinetry, built-in pantry storage, custom drawers, and convenient in-home laundry.
What truly sets this property apart is its exceptional amount of storage and parking--features rarely found this close to downtown. In addition to a basement for abundant storage, hobbies, or seasonal gear, the home offers an attached garage plus a detached two-car garage, creating endless possibilities for vehicles, a workshop, studio, recreation equipment, or outdoor gear. Additional off-street parking provides room for trailers, boats, or extra vehicles.
Large double-pane windows fill the home with natural light, while mature cottonwood trees provide shade and privacy. Outside, enjoy a welcoming covered front porch, flagstone patio, fencing, low-maintenance xeriscaping, durable metal roof, brick exterior, and a fenced dog run for pet owners.
Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, weekend retreat, or investment property, this home offers an exceptional combination of charm, walkability, abundant storage, multiple garage spaces, and one of Salida's most desirable in-town locations. Call for a showing today!
