Property Description


0.50 Acres Lot
Built in 1947
For Sale - Active
1 Units

This beautifully updated and meticulously maintained home is centrally located in the highly sought-after Morse Park neighborhood. Featuring an open floor plan, the home offers 3 spacious bedrooms and 2.5 modern bathrooms. Recent upgrades include newer stainless-steel appliances, a built-in dry bar with beverage fridge, new central A/C, a tankless water heater, new garage door, energy-efficient windows with custom blinds, new interior and exterior doors, and a versatile bonus space currently set up as a home gym—though it could easily be your next office or creative studio. Step outside to your own private half-acre retreat, professionally landscaped with mature trees, a brand-new concrete patio, a 6-foot privacy fence, and a full irrigation system—ideal for relaxing summer evenings or weekend gatherings. Just a half mile from Morse Park, you'll enjoy easy access to tennis courts, a playground, baseball fields, sand volleyball courts, and a community outdoor pool. Commuting is a breeze with downtown Denver just 15 minutes away, popular Sloan’s Lake restaurants only a couple miles down the road, and ski resorts within an hour’s drive. The property is zoned R-1-6, offering potential to split the lot or build an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit).
