The sellers have put over $95K into the bones of this home so that you don't have to! Walk in to a bright living room that flows into the dining area, where a sliding glass door leads out to the backyard. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a primary with dual closets and built-in organizers. The full bathroom on this level is thoughtfully designed with access from both the primary bedroom and the hallway making it the perfect flexible ensuite. The lower level offers a large family room anchored by a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with an electric insert, garden level windows, a fourth bedroom, and a bathroom that was completely remodeled in 2022 ($14K). Outside, the backyard is enormous and a blank slate for a garden, a shop, a play set, or whatever you have been picturing. A matching storage shed and two-car attached garage round out the home. There are too many upgrades to count, but the most significant ones include 2025/2026 James Hardie siding and a class 4 impact-resistant roof ($46K). The sellers installed central A/C in 2024 to replace the less-convenient evaporative cooler that most homes in the area rely on ($9.7K). All of the flooring was replaced in 2024 ($16K), and a radon mitigation system was installed in 2024 ($2.4K). See the supplements or reach out to the listing agent for the full list of upgrades. The location is amazing. The McCoy Hills 2 playground is right down the street, and a short walk gets you to Community Park with the Thornton City Pool and the Thornton Community Center. I-25 is only minutes from your driveway, putting you at Coors Field downtown in 15 minutes. Add this one to your must-see list this weekend!
