Some homes tell a quiet story the moment you see them.
2221 S Franklin Street in Denver is one of those places. Not just because of what it is today, but because of what it can become.
Set in one of Denver’s desirable and evolving neighborhoods, this property offers something that is getting harder to find in the city: opportunity.
The home is a charming 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom bungalow currently used as a rental. Inside you will find gleaming hardwood floors, fresh interior paint, and an open layout that feels welcoming and comfortable. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, a stylish backsplash, and newer cabinetry, while the tile bathroom adds a clean modern touch.
Outside, the possibilities expand. New stucco siding and low maintenance front landscaping create inviting curb appeal, while the long driveway offers space for multiple vehicles.
The real potential begins in the back. A large fenced yard with alley access provides flexibility that builders, investors, and forward thinking homeowners are always searching for. Mature trees frame the property and the generous lot offers room to imagine something larger in the future.
For buyers entering the market, this is a comfortable move in ready home in a neighborhood that continues to grow in value. For investors, it presents a strong rental opportunity with close proximity to the University of Denver, Porter Hospital, and Harvard Gulch Recreation Center.
