This historic residence blends preserved architectural detail with modern updates, offering timeless character and exceptional flexibility. From the moment you enter, the home makes a powerful first impression with a grand entrance foyer—a true statement space rarely found today—showcasing soaring ceilings, richly preserved original woodwork, a sweeping staircase, and stunning stained-glass windows that flood the home with filtered light. The foyer sets the tone for the craftsmanship throughout —details that speak to a level of historic quality simply impossible to replicate. The renovated kitchen honors the home’s period charm with custom cabinetry, Thermador appliances, soapstone countertops, and a rear staircase to the second level. The upper floors provide generous and flexible living spaces, including guest rooms ideal for offices or studies, a second-level loft area overlooking the foyer, a conveniently located laundry closet, and a stunning primary suite featuring dual fireplaces, a walk-in closet, and a private balcony. The third level adds even more versatility with additional rooms, a ¾ bath, and a front recreation space pre-wired for entertainment, plus west-facing mountain views—well-suited for conversion into a private rental or guest suite with minimal modification. Alternatively, the basement offers another strong income-producing option, with the ability to create a separate living area for rentals. Outdoors, enjoy a private brick and slate patio, garden beds, and a two-car garage. Rich in history and originally built for one of Colorado’s first city attorneys, this Victorian is unmatched in presence, location, and flexibility—ideal as a primary residence, investment property, or both, and a truly exceptional offering in the heart of Denver.
