Home Description

This iconic early Craftsman style home in the Denver Country Club neighborhood is available for the first time since 1987. It is perfectly located on a beautiful 11,600 SF lot on a wide, boulevard in the heart of this beloved neighborhood. Timeless elegance extends throughout this home. Originally designed by Edwin Moorman in 1907 it has been lovingly cared for with many of its original architectural features preserved. There are quarter sawn oak floors and trim and beautiful wood windows flood this home with sunshine. The centerpiece of the living room is the original fireplace surrounded by built-in bookcases. It has been retrofitted with gas and provides the perfect place to curl up with a good book or to host the book club. The adjoining dining room offers an elegant dinner setting with room for the grandest of dining tables and wood paneled walls. French doors to the patio to take the party outside. Upon their purchase, the current owners added a two story addition updating this home for modern living. A large family room now adjoins the modern kitchen and a mud room creates a transition from the garage to the house. This room is flooded with South light and glass doors open to a beautiful flagstone patio. It has a wide staircase that encourages the party to spread out onto the lawn framed by meticulously maintained gardens. Croquet anyone? A custom pergola frames the front garden entrance and the pond with its babbling fountain set the mood for an oasis in the city. The second level currently has 4 BRs and 3 BAs and a large office with a south facing bay window that once provided work and study space for a family of four. The third floor provides an additional 374 SF (not inc in SF here) and has many potential uses from an additional bedroom, to work out space, to an artist's studio. The basement guest suite has hosted many visitors from around the world to its' living room with cozy fireplace, kitchenette and bedroom with egress and 3/4 bath.
