Metro Denver Luxury Homes For Sale

Property Description

Tucked into the heart of Lakewood on a rare ½-acre lot, this thoughtfully updated home blends timeless mid-century style with fresh, modern touches—inside and out. Step into the bright and welcoming living room, where gleaming hardwood floors, fresh interior paint, and oversized windows on both sides of the room create a space that feels both cozy and expansive. The large entry closet keeps the clutter at bay (and your guests impressed). The dining room offers a touch of personality with unique wood paneling and plenty of space for an expandable table—perfect for holidays, game nights, or your next epic dinner party. The kitchen? A standout. Custom cherry cabinets, premium granite counters, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, and an inviting eat-in nook make this space as functional as it is fabulous. The professionally designed powder bath adds a pop of style with a glass tile vanity, while the full bath leans more earthy-luxe with a custom soapstone vanity and designer tile. Both bathrooms feature a soothing, neutral palette that lets the finishes shine. The spacious primary bedroom includes an entire wall of closet storage and beautiful hardwood floors. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility—think home office, guest space, or cozy den—with one perfectly positioned to capture those golden west-facing sunsets. The laundry/mechanical room is practical and ready for action, complete with shelving to keep everything neat and tidy. New furnace in 2024, newer A/C. Outside, that sprawling ½-acre lot is your blank canvas. Garden, play, entertain—or just soak up the peace and privacy. A large concrete patio is partially covered, and offers room to enjoy a cup of coffee or entertain. Large, detached 2-car garage, and room to add RV parking on the side if you desire. No HOA! Live close to city conveniences with a yard that feels like a private park – plus right across the street is open space! This Lakewood gem is a rare find—don’t let it slip away.
