...The Bliss House – A Denver Landmark of Historic Significance

Rarely does an opportunity arise to own a property as distinctive as The Bliss House, named for its original owner, Dr. Gerald Bliss, the first Surgeon General of the Colorado Territory. This residence was designed by renowned architects William Lang & Pugh, celebrated for their blend of Victorian styles. One of only five remaining William Lang homes on Stuart Street, the Bliss House retains exceptional original features, including stained-glass windows, rich woodwork, operable transoms, pocket doors, & French doors. Classified as a Queen Anne Victorian, it showcases a two-story bay front elevation & two-story turret with open balcony. Inside, the home is beautifully preserved with a vaulted carved-wood staircase, original tile fireplace, stained wood trim, mullioned windows, & period detailing throughout. Lang chose a house "symbol" making each home unique. This home showcases the Oak leaf. Look for it carved into the doorframes and banister railings. Modern updates complement its history, including upgraded systems, brand new appliances, and a spa-inspired bathroom with an AirSpa clawfoot tub. The finished third-floor attic adds living space & direct access to the turret balcony with tree-top and seasonal mountain views. The property’s signature feature is its expansive 12' x 24' covered front porch, ideally oriented to stay cool in summer & capture morning sunrises. The corner lot offers private, low-maintenance outdoor space with a deck, artificial turf, & ample off-street parking, including room for an RV pad behind double gates. Just three blocks from Sloan’s Lake Park, residents enjoy close proximity to trails, the marina, and downtown skyline views. The home also offers convenient access to downtown Denver, major highways, & the Rocky Mountains. The Bliss House is one of Denver’s true architectural treasures—where timeless craftsmanship, historic charm, & modern comfort unite.
