Welcome to this beautiful single family home PLUS two-story carriage house! Built in 1889—the same year as Colorado’s iconic State Capitol—this beautifully restored home invites you into a lifestyle that balances timeless elegance with modern comfort—all in the heart of Denver. Bathed in natural light from large, historic windows, this home offers an airy, welcoming feel, filling each room with warmth. Original architectural details remain thoughtfully intact, while 2025 updates including brand new kitchen countertops, carpet, and a new sewer line provide ease and peace of mind. Additionally, a major renovation in the 1990s updated the plumbing, heating, and electrical systems for long-term comfort and functionality.
The expansive secret-garden-like yard is a charming private retreat, with berry bushes just waiting to be turned into homemade pies. Just beyond is an instagram-worthy, fully finished two-story carriage house perfect for a guest suite, rental opportunity, creative space, or a peaceful hideaway for family and friends. A sauna on the property adds a touch of indulgence, inviting moments of calm and restoration at home. This home is both move-in ready and full of opportunity to make it your own. The current owners loved living here for the location. They walked or biked to work downtown, with easy access to public transit, bus lines, and the light rail. Living at 1741 N Emerson means the best of Denver is truly at your doorstep. City Park is a short stroll away, and just down the street you’ll find the library, museums, the heart of downtown and the buzzing restaurant and bar scene along 17th Avenue. Local favorites like Marczyk’s Fine Foods and Wine make everyday life feel elevated and easy. This is not just a home, it’s a lifestyle worth falling in love with.
