LOCATION, HISTORY,…and a whole lot of FUNCTION too! Tucked into the gracious blocks of our early 20th century mansions that ring one of Denver’s best parks, is this mid-century building that recalls the modernist voice heard in the ’60s. It’s LOCATION just 2 blocks to the expansive picnic lawns, shady jogging trails, and photographer favored dramatic neoclassical pavillion at Cheeseman Park can’t be beat. Add in 100 year treed lots, shady leaf canopy, and an eclectic community that strolls the neighborhood to grab groceries at Whole Foods or Kings, grab a bite at Snarfs or Potager, pop into the coffee houses and hip craft-cocktail bars to the west, or find the back door entrance to the Denver’s Botanic Gardens to the east, and what more can you ask? If HISTORICAL significance is on your list, then buy a little piece of mid-century history too and live in a building that comes from that modernist expression born of The Bauhaus School that favors a high level of function over ornamentation that still resonates today. And then FUNCTION? Let’s talk about how we are living today. Smaller buildings like this one of only 31 units, offers community, privacy, and safety. Conscientious HOA keeps up with improvements. Roof replacement, Fresh Paint, Heating Overhaul, Landscaping, and Parking Lot Repaving have all been checked off their list. They’ve also got one of the best views of the city from the penthouse level gathering space and deck, covered dedicated parking, bike storage, and healthy reserves for future improvements. And then…Celebrate that this unit is actually available! Its a star unit with a coveted southeast facing view and a 60 Foot covered balcony accessible from 3 (yes 3!) separate glass doors to a fantastic private outdoor space. The smart open floor plan and the 2 baths aren’t easy to find but add Ash hardwoods, new appliances and countertops, fresh paint on the retro cabinets, new bathroom finishes and new A/C units and you’ve found a winner!
