About the host
Hosted by Shelley Rose
My name is Shelley Rose. I was born into an Airforce home and never really new where to say I was from. But now I call Colorado home. My husband, Danny, and I have been married for 38 years and we live in Palmer Lake, just 30 minutes north of Colorado Springs. We have two grown sons, one married and two precious grandsons. We travel a lot to Sweden to visit our former exchange student and his family. We are the American grandparents:) Our next big project is building our Overlander and traveling off grid. We love to travel and host.
Why they chose this property
I love this neighborhood. I love the friendly neighbors, the older homes and being able to walk to the coffee shop.
What makes this property unique
This property is unique in that it used to be a one family home until is was converted into four separate apartments in the 1950's. Each apartment has a different time period theme that my husband and I designed. We also did all the work remodeling.
