About the host

Hosted by daryl muncey

Host profile image
When our family relocated to Colorado Springs in 2014, we found this gem of a property right in downtown Monument, CO. The property has two separate buildings, a commercial building and a small home. My dream came true when we discovered exactly what we were searching for, my art studio that also has an income property.

Why they chose this property

The Artist's Cottage is one of the first homes in Monument and it dates back to the late 1800's or early 1900's. The remodel took 4.5 years as i was only able to work on it 1.5 day/week. The original home was only around 500 sq ft, and as was commonly done in those days, it was added onto 4 times. It has an old fashioned cellar that stays about 56 degrees year 'round.

What makes this property unique

The back deck has most recently been upgraded and has a sun/wind shade structure for relaxing in the beautiful outdoors.
My art studio/gallery will be up and running in the fall as i begin to teach art classes to home-schooling groups.
