The Old North End is known for it's tree lined streets and Victorian Homes in the central area of Colorado Springs. Many home buyers who like the West side of Colorado Springs and enjoy being a little closer to the mountains, can find Victorian homes in Old Colorado City as well.
In fact, "Victorian" refers to an era (1837-1901) not a type of home! Over the years, people have generally referred to homes built in this era as Victorian Style Homes. Either way, you recognize a Victorian Home when you see one! They usually have large porches, are painted with multiple colors, and are usually one or two-story floor plans here in Colorado Springs. There is usually more detail to the exterior design of the home (i.e. patterned exterior siding and decorative trim) when compared to homes built in recent years.
