Seller offering 10K in concessions with full offer price!!.....The home at 240 S 5th Avenue in Brighton is a modest, single-family house built in 1930 and has retained a lot of its original character. Its location near schools, parks, and the downtown area adds convenience and makes it appealing for everyday living. This 3 bed 2 bath with 1 non-conforming bedroom in basement is very cozy. All the homes in the area are unique, and this one is a favorite. Please be advised that 3 cats also live in the home. The home does need updating, the upstairs shower needs work, new floor tile will be needed. The carpet was professionally cleaned on April 21, 2026, with a pet deodorizer applied, and the home has also been recently deep cleaned.
The surrounding neighborhood in Brighton has a suburban, family-oriented feel with a mix of older homes like this one and newer developments further out. It’s part of the greater Denver metro area, offering a quieter, more affordable alternative while still being within commuting distance of Denver. Residents tend to enjoy access to parks, trails, and community activities, though the area is generally car-dependent. Overall, the neighborhood is considered stable and growing, with a balance of long-established residential blocks and ongoing development, though like many areas, conditions such as safety and upkeep can vary from street to street.
