Discover this super-cute cottage in one of Denver’s most coveted pockets—Olinger Gardens is just blocks to the best of Highlands and Sloans Lake, and minutes to Tennyson Street and Crown Hill Park. A neighborhood topographical high point! Warm, welcoming, and wonderfully efficient, this home blends classic character with smart updates throughout. Step into the sunny family room, where hardwood floors, playful colors, and a corner window deliver natural light all afternoon. The space flows seamlessly into the thoughtfully designed kitchen featuring a brand new convection oven, refrigerator and updated quiet Bosch dishwasher, plus cleverly planned cabinet storage, and a built-in banquette perfect for morning coffee or dinner with friends. A true bonus for cottage living—an actual mudroom with full-size washer and dryer, shelving, and room to drop your gear after wandering the neighborhood. Three bedrooms provide flexibility for how you live: a west-facing primary with great natural light and an organized closet; a cozy carpeted secondary bedroom with corner windows overlooking the backyard; and a charming third bedroom with hardwood floors—ideal as a nursery, guest room, or home office. The full bath offers clean white subway tile, neutral fixtures, and surprisingly great storage. Nest doorbell, camera, thermostat and smoke detector, plus Quantum Fiber installed (940GB). Large, private backyard includes a garden area, nice patio, storage shed and a useful detached garage with opener. Cute. Cozy. Perfectly placed. This cottage is move-in ready and close to everything you love about Northwest Denver and Wheat Ridge!
