Showings start Wed April 15th, open house Sat April 18th 11-1pm. This two-story, 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home with a finished basement and two-car garage sits on a corner lot in a Thornton community with no HOA. The home makes a great first impression with a south-facing driveway, fresh exterior paint, a new front sidewalk (2024), and a welcoming front porch. Pause in the front foyer to drop your keys before gaining a different perspective of the front yard from the kitchen sink window, featuring views of the mature tree and green lawn with a sprinkler system. The open kitchen features white cabinetry, black countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a peninsula with seating for two stools. The adjoining dining area has a sliding glass door leading to an updated deck (2021), concrete patio, and backyard with sprinklers, new fence (2025), and concrete RV parking. The living room is the heart of the home, featuring two-story lofted ceilings, newer flooring (2020), a gas fireplace, beautiful windows, and an elegant staircase. The attached two-car garage is finished and EV-ready with a dedicated 220V outlet. The garage flows directly into the foyer, where you’ll find a half bath next to the laundry area, washer and dryer included, and ample storage space. The second level features a large primary bedroom with huge south-facing windows, an en-suite bathroom with double vanity, and a walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms and another full bathroom complete the upper level. The finished basement provides a casual living space and an additional bedroom with a second egress window. Plumbing is already in place to add another bathroom in the basement. Additional upgrades include a new furnace and A/C (2022), new roof (2023), and paid-off 5.67 kW solar panels (2023). This Thornton home is close to the light rail, near parks, and just 20 minutes to downtown—offering comfort, convenience, and thoughtful updates throughout. Please contact agent for all due diligence docs.
