306 E Cannon Street

Step into the heart of Lafayette’s history with this beautifully preserved 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home, lovingly maintained and officially designated as a historic home by the City of Lafayette for its architectural character and notable past residents. This designation opens the door to Colorado state preservation tax credits and potential grants for future improvements. From the moment you approach the welcoming front porch – complete with intricate woodwork and original posts – you’re drawn into a space filled with timeless charm. Inside, rich millwork, colorful stained glass, high ceilings and detailed trim evoke a sense of craftsmanship rarely seen today. The spacious living/dining area is lined with built-in bookshelves, vintage wallpaper and unique architectural touches inviting warmth & conversation. An updated kitchen featuring cherry-toned cabinetry and stainless steel appliances blends seamlessly with the historic aesthetic, as does a 2-story addition. A second living space at the rear of the home offers incredible flexibility and natural light, opening directly to a greenhouse and outdoor patio. Upstairs and down, you’ll find four well-sized bedrooms -- including one large primary bedroom -- alongside two full tiled bathrooms. Closets and built-in cabinets throughout the home provide ample storage, as does a basement with bonus rooms that could be used for an office or playroom. Fenced-in backyard is a true oasis, with a heated greenhouse, raised garden beds, mature trees, and space to relax and entertain, and with potential for garage/ADU construction off alley. Located in one of Lafayette’s quietest and most walkable and quaint neighborhoods, this home is just steps from local coffee shops and brewpubs, eateries, art galleries, a charming book store, WOW! Children’s Museum, a local theatre and other cultural amenities. This rare gem offers not just a place to live, but a chance to carry on a piece of Lafayette’s legacy.
