    What's special

    Dam East is more than a neighborhood — it's a lifestyle. Known for its strong sense of community, it features a pickleball league, an annual 4th of July block party, and food trucks for "No Cook Thursdays, among other celebrations. Residents also enjoy tennis courts, a swimming pool, and scenic walking paths that connect the four circles, a dog walkers paradise ----- which also leads directly to Utah Park and the iconic Cherry Creek Trail. Perfectly situated on a spacious corner lot, this home sits just two houses from a neighborhood park and playground. The main floor includes a mudroom with laundry hookup, a half bath, and direct access to an attached two-car garage with EV charger. The kitchen features massive windows, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar — plus a versatile space that works equally well as an eat-in nook or secondary sitting area. Sliding glass doors open to a fully fenced backyard complete with a sunny patio, artificial high quality turf backed by 20 year warranty, and a custom raised garden bed — designed for low-maintenance enjoyment. The xeriscape-designed front and side yards extend that same ease of living with drought-tolerant curb appeal. Upstairs, the primary suite offers vaulted ceilings, a sliding barn door, dual sink private bath and a custom closet system, alongside three additional bedrooms and a full hallway bathroom. The finished basement adds a flexible fifth bedroom with a walk-in closet, plus an additional laundry hookup. Major systems have been upgraded by the owner, sewer line, water heater, basement flooring & closets, AC unit and backed by a 5-year roof certification.
