Property Description

Filled with timeless character and thoughtful updates, this charming 1909 Craftsman brick home duplex sits on a quiet street in Denver's beloved Baker neighborhood. The covered timber-frame front porch creates a welcoming first impression and offers the perfect spot for morning coffee or relaxing summer evenings. Inside, the foyer greets you with the original custom coat tree, setting the tone for the craftsmanship found throughout. Rich original woodwork including original hardwood floors, historic details and built-ins create warmth and personality rarely found today. The inviting living room features a beautiful original fireplace and flows seamlessly into the spacious dining room, where a stunning built-in buffet with handcrafted cabinetry serves as a centerpiece for gatherings and everyday living. The updated kitchen balances charm and convenience with granite countertops, newer appliances, a brand-new dishwasher, smart refrigerator with beverage center, and a sunny breakfast nook. Upstairs, two bright bedrooms retain their original hardwood floors, including one with a delightful built-in window seat. The expansive lower-level primary suite with en-suite bath offers a peaceful retreat or flex space for a work from home office, studio, or additional living area. Current owners never had issue parking 3 cars, great minimal upkeep. Fresh paint, energy efficient central air conditioning, central heating, abundant storage, and an exceptional walkable location near restaurants, shops, parks, downtown Denver, and cultural attractions complete this special Baker neighborhood home.
