In the heart of Cherry Creek North, 540 Steele Street is the kind of home that lives up to the location: beautiful, substantial, thoughtfully designed, with the character and finish to stand on its own.
From the street, mature landscaping, a clay-tile roofline and an arched covered entry create a welcoming presence. Inside, Brazilian cherry hardwood floors and tall ceilings set the tone, while two distinct living areas, dedicated dining space and a gas fireplace give the main level a natural balance of openness and separation. The kitchen sits at the center of it all, and a private side courtyard with a calming fountain creates an intimate place for coffee, dinner outside or a quiet evening at home.
Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a true retreat with vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, two walk-in closets and a five-piece bath with a large jetted tub. One closet was custom designed by California Closets. A second bedroom and bath, dedicated laundry room and a bright open office with its own balcony complete the level.
The finished lower level continues the home’s tall ceilings with a generous media and game room, plus a private third bedroom and full bath that give guests real separation and another comfortable place to spread out.
The home has been beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated with fresh interior paint, new upper-level carpet, an updated stair railing, a new heat pump and furnace serving the main and lower levels in 2025, and a tile roof inspected and repaired the same year. The attached two-car garage adds custom cabinetry, storage and an epoxy floor.
And then there is Cherry Creek North. Restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, fitness studios and everyday conveniences are close at hand, while Steele Street maintains a quieter residential feel. With straightforward access to downtown, the airport and routes west toward the mountains, 540 Steele brings together a beautiful home and one of Denver’s most sought-after places to live.
