Steeped in history and timeless elegance, the Albert Giesecke House stands as one of Potter Highlands’ most beloved architectural treasures. Built circa 1882 by noted architect A. H. Phillips, this rare Italianate-style residence is celebrated in Historic Denver guidebooks for its charm and craftsmanship. Thoughtfully updated for modern living, the home features a light-filled interior where exposed brick and original millwork blend seamlessly with refined finishes. The exceptional kitchen — outfitted with luxury Viking appliances and all-white cabinetry — flows effortlessly to the living room and a generous brick patio with a pergola, perfect for al fresco entertaining. Set on a corner lot with lush gardens, this large lot is zoned for ADU with ample potential for future development, and is both a piece of Denver history and a contemporary urban retreat. Poised just moments from 32nd Avenue’s acclaimed dining and boutiques, the Giesecke House embodies heritage, beauty and enduring sophistication. The Potter Highlands neighborhood is beloved for its healthy, walkable, and dog friendly lifestyle, and with miles of bike trails leading into and around the city of Denver, accessibility is right at your front door. The full, written history of the home is available upon request. Please contact listing agent for more details.
