Description

Introducing the Harold Florman House, an extraordinary 1939 Pueblo Revival set on nearly 2 acres in Pueblo’s highly sought-after Aberdeen/City Park neighborhood. Opportunities of this caliber are rare, especially those that combine architectural significance, curated grounds, and meaningful scale. A designated Pueblo Historical Landmark and recognized on the Denver Botanic Gardens registry, the property has been featured in annual tours and fundraising events. Before even stepping inside, the setting establishes something truly special. Fully fenced and spanning 1.82 acres—the only residential property of its kind within Aberdeen/Aberdeen Bluffs—the grounds unfold as a series of intentional outdoor spaces. Two natural springs with water rights feed a year-round pond with fish and water feature. Meandering paths, charming bridges, wildflower and bird gardens, and a dedicated cactus/southwest garden create a landscape that feels both curated and organic. Multiple outdoor rooms invite gathering and retreat, including covered entertaining spaces, a level playfield, and a fire pit with surrounding seating. At the heart of the property, the residence stands as a true architectural time capsule. Built in 1939 in the Pueblo Revival/Santa Fe style with territorial influences, the home reflects timeless design through flat roofs with parapets, stepped massing, exposed beams, vigas, and classic southwestern detailing. Inside, original character endures—hardwood floors, terra cotta tile, art deco laminate, vitrolite accents, handcrafted tilework and murals, plaster walls, and hand-carved wood elements—balanced by both formal and informal living spaces. The upper-level primary suite offers a private retreat with ensuite bath, sitting area with kiva fireplace and built-ins, dressing space, and rooftop access. The main level features a grand entry, spacious living and dining areas, kitchen, three bedrooms, and 2.5 baths. The lower level includes a family room, cantina-style wet bar, laundry, storage, garage, and additional flexible space. A separate casita with bath provides ideal guest or studio accommodations. More than a home, this is a fully realized environment shaped over time with intention and care. The only 1+ acre residential offering in Aberdeen, this nearly 2-acre sanctuary captures privacy, history, and sweeping sunset views over the Arkansas River with Pikes Peak beyond, all with immediate access to City Park. Offered publicly for the first time with only three stewards in its history, this 4,608 SF legacy property awaits its next chapter.
