Welcome to the Tree House — A Hilltop Masterpiece of Light, Nature, and Modernism
Perched just one house off Cranmer Park on a picturesque, tree-lined block, this architectural jewel—affectionately dubbed The Tree House—is a rare offering in Denver’s Hilltop neighborhood. Thoughtfully renovated and infused with bold Mid-Century Modern sensibilities, the home is a celebration of design, nature, and light.
Step inside to an awe-inspiring open-concept layout, where 18-foot-high walls of glass invite the landscape indoors. Natural light filters across the marble floors and walnut wood finishes, casting soft, dappled patterns that change throughout the day. At the heart of the living space lies a sunken conversation pit—an iconic feature of the era—designed not just for style, but for everyday comfort and connection.
Linear forms and organic materials play off each other throughout, creating a warm yet sophisticated ambiance. Suspended above it all, a striking cross-shaped walkway connects the upper-level bedrooms, allowing each room to overlook the living space through shuttered openings. At each axis, built-in planters breathe greenery into the air—an intentional nod to the home’s biophilic soul, brought to life by acclaimed architect Richard Quinn of Ream Architects.
Outside, the 10,000 sq/ft lot is a private sanctuary, lushly landscaped and brimming with potential for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or simply soaking in the serenity under the trees.
The Tree House isn’t just a home—it’s a living experience that blends architectural artistry with everyday livability, all in one of Denver’s most desirable locations.
