Blocks from Stanley Marketplace. Walkable to a brewery, all the dumplings, local parks. Plus, this updated 1923 bungalow holds its own once you get inside.
It starts with the front porch. Covered, charming, the kind that actually gets used and sets the tone before you even open the door.
Inside, the house shows its age in the best ways. Hardwood floors, arched doorways, proportions that newer construction does not replicate. Oversized windows throughout bring in serious natural light, which makes the whole main floor feel bigger and brighter than the square footage suggests. Upstairs you'll find, two bedrooms, a full bath, and a kitchen with a large movable island that earns its space. Plus, a bonus room off the back of the home, accessible from the kitchen and one of the bedrooms, adapts to whatever you need it to be.
Downstairs surprises people. A large open den with a three-quarter bath and separate laundry room. Home gym, guest space, second living room, creative studio. It does not feel like a basement.
Out back, the yard is genuinely large for the neighborhood. Concrete patio, raised deck, pergola with string lights, clover lawn that stays green on less water, and a shed with clear roof panels that doubles as a greenhouse. A long gravel driveway out front handles parking without a second thought.
The 2025 solar system produces more power than this home uses in peak summer. The August 2025 Xcel bill was $36, composed of gas and fixed fees only. The panels produced enough to bank excess power. That story is worth reading in full. Ask about the solar info in supplements.
And the location. Stanley Marketplace is literally right up the road. Nana's Dumplings and Second Dawn Brewing are walkable. Aurora City Park and Montview Park bookend the neighborhood. This stretch of Aurora is finding its footing, and this block is right in the middle of it.
