SOLD
Offered for the first time in 74 years: The Crown Jewel of Congress Park! One of the most recognizable and beloved homes in the neighborhood, this iconic Spanish Colonial home with cheerful green shutters and red clay tile roof, sits on a lush oversized 9380 SF lot. Located two blocks from the park – close enough that you can peer up the street to see if the pickleball courts are available – and a short walk to Cherry Creek North. With generously proportioned rooms and several original 1922 features – including casement windows, light fixtures, built-in hallway cabinets, hardwood floors, and even a butler’s call box – this stunning property awaits your thoughtful renovations. French doors open from the dining room onto the back patio where you can enjoy your morning coffee or happy hour beverage while soaking up your own personal paradise. Shielded from the street by a detached three-car garage (ideal for a workshop or to store your hobby car) and from the alley by 70+ year-old grape vines that climb up and over a large trellis and pavilion, the outdoor space is truly a highlight of this home. The main floor is flooded with light throughout the day and includes a spacious living room, office, kitchen, dining room, four bedrooms and two baths. Two sets of stairs – one off the hallway and another off the kitchen – lead to the basement, which boasts a large family room, 5th non-conforming bedroom with 3/4 bath, laundry room, work room with closet, and tons of storage space for your skis and outdoor equipment…all with 7′ ceilings.
