Lovely and classic Denver Square where timeless architecture, thoughtful updates, and enchanting gardens come together on one of Capitol Hill’s most peaceful blocks. The foyer is filled with natural light & sets a warm, elegant tone throughout. Inside, the sunlit living room features wood floors & a cozy fireplace, creating an inviting space to gather and relax. Just beyond, a charming sunroom with a wall of west-facing windows offers the perfect retreat. A convenient half bath/ laundry room is also located on the first floor. The formal dining room overlooks the vibrant backyard gardens, while the bright and functional kitchen is ready for your personal vision and updates. Step directly from the kitchen into the stunning backyard—an exceptional setting for entertaining, dining al fresco, or simply enjoying Colorado evenings surrounded by lush landscaping and thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces. The second floor offers three bedrooms, including a generously sized room ideal for a primary bedroom, along with a shared bath. The third floor adds two additional bedrooms & a charming hall bath complete with a clawfoot tub and skylights. The finished basement has been beautifully transformed into a private studio apartment with a kitchenette & ¾ bath, offering flexible living options for guests, extended family, or potential rental income. Outdoors, the backyard blends beauty and functionality with ease, featuring a dining patio, vibrant landscaping and gardens, & just the right amount of green space. Currently, there is a one car garage & additional off-street parking, but the lot allows for a future, larger garage. Enjoy the very best of Capitol Hill living—just five blocks from Cheesman Park, with Whole Foods neighborhood restaurants, & cafés just steps away. King Soopers, Safeway, and Trader Joe’s are also close by. Come experience this warm and welcoming Denver Square, where historic character and everyday comfort have been thoughtfully brought together.
