Nestled in the Virginia Vale neighborhood of Southeast Denver, this updated ranch-style home features 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a finished basement, large private backyard, sunroom, two-car garage, and approximately 1,800 sq ft of living space.

The backyard is fully-fenced (6-feet tall) with a deck, pergola, mature landscaping and built in seating. A sunroom off the back of the home creates bonus space to lounge in the swing seasons. The front-yard is landscaped with native, low-water plants and the backyard is fully irrigated. A regular landscaper will be hired to maintain the lawn and garden, at no additional cost. Rooftop solar panels will significantly reduce your electric bill. The gated driveway has secure space for your cars or even a trailer.
