Welcome to this delightful 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom bungalow that perfectly blends original character with thoughtful updates. Nestled in a highly sought-after neighborhood near the University of Denver and several of the city's finest parks, this home has been tastefully updated throughout.
Step inside through the inviting closed-in front porch, a perfect spot to sip morning coffee or enjoy evening breezes. The main living area features original architectural details, warm hardwood floors, and great natural light. The updated kitchen boasts newer appliances (brand new gas range but kitchen is also wired for electric/induction), updated base cabinetry, plenty of quartz countertop work space, and ample storage space.
The primary bedroom sits at the rear of the house house and features two closets. Access to the classically renovated bathroom is provided to both main floor bedrooms. The basement was completely redone and finished in 2021, with gorgeous vinyl plank flooring, 7ft ceilings, egress windows, and plenty of comfortable space. The 3rd bedroom sits apart from the family room and is adjacent to the newer bath. All major systems were upgraded, including electrical, HVAC, plumbing, windows and more — all while preserving the home’s timeless charm.
Outside, enjoy a beautiful yard with space for gardening, play, or relaxing on the patio. The front yard is xeriscaped with natural grasses and numerous flowers and plants designed for lower water use, and there is 220V wiring for EV charging at the front corner. Located within short walks to the area's finest: Denver Beer Co., coffee shops, groceries, restaurants, Harvard Gulch Park & golf course AND Washington Park, as well as public transit, this lovingly maintained home is in the ultimate location.
