Quiet street; 100 year old shade trees. Some houses are remodeled, this one has been reinvented. Built in 1917 on an approximately 10,000-sq-ft lot, 5341 Primrose blends the character of an old home with the comfort and infrastructure of a thoughtfully updated one. Original wood floors pair with reclaimed interior doors, historic timbers and carefully chosen finishes. The kitchen is a centerpiece, with upgraded cabinetry, designer tile, water filtration, new dishwasher and a fabulous 1953 O'Keefe & Merritt gas range. The bathroom continues the story with updated cabinetry and a reclaimed clawfoot tub. Much of the investment is behind the walls: new electrical throughout the home, garage and shed; updated kitchen and bath plumbing; sewer-line work from the house to the street; new furnace and ductwork; and added mini split A/C. Energy efficiency was considered throughout the renovation. Outside, vinyl siding was removed and replaced with stucco, along with new exterior paint, lighting, front porch, front and rear doors, security door, smart locks and hardware. The large backyard offers five raised garden beds, bamboo privacy fencing and a fire pit, while the detached garage and shed provide additional storage and workspace. The lot may also offer ADU potential, subject to Adams County requirements and buyer verification. Located in unincorporated Adams County with a Denver 80221 address, Berkeley Hills Park is practically around the corner. 5341 Primrose isn't a flip and doesn't feel like one. The owners preserved the quirks, materials and history that give an old house its soul while investing in the systems that make it comfortable today. Sellers are open to discussing furnishings separately.
