Property Description
Welcome to a rare gem in one of Lakewood's most coveted neighborhoods - where homes are cherished for decades and listings are few and far between. This one-owner home offers 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms on a spacious half-acre lot.
Inside, you'll find timeless character throughout: a custom stained-glass entryway, finger block parquet, natural stone slate floors, and custom built-in bookshelves that add both charm and function. The primary suite features generous proportions, hand-carved dental crown molding, and sweeping mountain views. The three additional bedrooms are equally spacious and filled with natural light. The kitchen features a full wall of built-in storage and ample space to reimagine - it's clean, functional, and ready for your personal touch. Dining room table, wall-mounted China cabinet and basement refrigerator are included with the home.
Step down into the cozy garden-level living room, where a wood-burning fireplace, abundant natural light, an updated bathroom, and convenient garage access come together to create a welcoming everyday space.
In the finished basement, brand-new carpet (installed 4/23/25) sets the stage for a home theater, playroom, guest retreat, or additional living space - ready for whatever you envision. This is a home with soul - rich in character, warmth, and timeless details you just don't find in modern remodels.
Tucked at the end of a quiet no-outlet street, the backyard is a dream: mature cottonwoods, apple trees, and an expansive area to relax, garden, or entertain. Just across the street lies Clairfield Reservoir, offering scenic views and peaceful surroundings. You're also just 10 minutes from the shops and restaurants of Belmar, Green Mountain trailheads, and only 15 minutes to Downtown Denver. Location, location, location!
Professionally cleaned throughout (4/28/25), this home is sparkling and move-in ready. Sewer scope completed (4/28/25) - all clear. A true original - waiting for its next chapter.
