Property Description

This home is brimming with timeless charm—and paired with a lot size that developers quietly dream about. Nestled in the heart of sought-after Platt Park, this adorable 1942 home sits on a rare oversized corner lot—over 8,000 sq. ft.—just six blocks from the shops and dining of South Pearl Street, moments to University of Denver, and only four blocks from iconic Washington Park. Step inside to a warm, inviting main level filled with extensive hardwood floors, charming built-ins, and timeless cove ceilings. A quaint entryway with custom shelving offers the perfect welcome home. The living room is bright and cozy, featuring a large picture window and a gas fireplace—ideal for both sunny mornings and snowy evenings. The open layout seamlessly connects the dining area and remodeled kitchen, making everyday living and entertaining effortless. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with white shaker cabinetry, granite countertops, a gas range, barstool seating, and a versatile command center/coffee bar that keeps life organized. On the main level, you’ll find two generously sized bedrooms—yes, a king-size bed fit comfortably—along with a full bath showcasing classic white brick-laid tile and timeless fixtures. The finished basement adds flexible living space to fit your needs—home office, workout zone, media den—you name it. It also includes a non-conforming third bedroom, a ¾ bath with dual access, and a spacious laundry room with excellent storage. Sewer line updated in 2020, sprinklers overhauled in 2023. Outside, the expansive corner lot is the real showstopper. Enjoy a spacious deck, mature trees, blooming perennials, a fenced dog run, and a detached garage. Whether you want to move right in, expand, pop the top, or explore a scrape-and-build, the surrounding block is full of inspiration and upside. Charming as-is, packed with character, and loaded with future potential—this is Platt Park living at its best.
