This 1920's era Congress Park Bungalow is the perfect mix of classic charm, modern convenience and designer updates. Upon entering this elegant home through the mahogany front door, the 1st thing you will notice is the original woodwork. This impeccable and rare woodwork is featured on all the trim and built-ins throughout the main floor and is a rich contrast to the top-of-the-line finishes that meld with the charm while accentuating the property's distinct look and style. The crown molding is a step back in time that creates an emotional experience for people who enjoy historical character. The main floor bath keeps with the feel of the era while also boasting lovely updates. You will also be impressed with the size of the master bedroom and its 2 closets, while the 2nd bedroom is also spacious. When you enter the gourmet kitchen, you'll love the clean look of the stainless steel appliances (including a gas stove) and white beadboard plank ceiling. The authentic 1919 upper cabinets continue the classic historic feel while the slab granite, farmers sink and subway tile backsplash pull the room together cohesively combining dream finishes, cool cabinetry and ample counterspace, framed by windows galore streaming in natural light and warmth. The fully finished basement contains 2 bedrooms with full egress windows as well as a large bathroom with an oversized walk in shower and a river stone base. All the crucial mechanical systems are updated. There is energy efficient radiant floor heating as well as a fireplace to enjoy during the chilly Colorado winters. The backyard haven is professionally landscaped with various plants/vines and a plentiful vegetable garden with a concrete paver patio which can be used for different types of entertainment. The desirable Congress Park location is perfectly situated minutes from many favorite neighborhood restaurants and shops, and only a quick drive to the Denver Botanic Gardens, many popular parks and downtown fun.
