    What's special

    Discover a light-filled sanctuary in Aurora’s coveted Dam East neighborhood, ideally situated within the award-winning Cherry Creek School District. Freshly updated with new paint and carpet throughout, this beautifully maintained two-story residence blends vintage character with a modern, soulful layout. The grand entryway and great room are defined by soaring 17-foot vaulted ceilings, leading you toward a formal dining room and a private interior atrium—an enchanting outdoor escape featuring built-in shelving, iron details, and classic terracotta tiles. The heart of the home is an eat-in kitchen with a central island and vibrant tile counters, flowing seamlessly to a backyard designed for entertaining. Enjoy a deck with bar seating and space for a dining area, all framed by lush landscaping without the burden of high-maintenance lawn care. Among its four bedrooms are two primary suites, each with a private en suite—one on the main level, one upstairs. Backing directly to one of the neighborhood's four parks, you will find yourself just steps from the neighborhood pool and walking paths as well as tennis, pickleball, and volleyball courts. Located just minutes from retail and transit, 12135 E Amherst Circle is ready for its next chapter. Come see it for yourself.
