About this home

Cozy and classic Thornton South ranch a half-block from the community park and pool! Once inside, you'll discover a welcoming, light-filled floor plan with beautiful wood flooring and a neutral color palette that is ready to be brought to life with your own personal touches. Adjoining living and dining rooms flow into the fully updated kitchen, which provides abundant storage space with chic grey cabinets, all new appliances and access to the large fenced in backyard and patio. Continue down the hallway to find three generously-sized bedrooms (one non-conforming) with plush new carpet and fresh paint and a gorgeous fully remodeled bathroom. Shaded by mature trees, the front yard delights with a shaded patio, and a lovely landscaped yard with drip irrigation and plenty of curb appeal. The extra long driveway offers plenty of room to park an RV as well as an oversized detached garage to house vehicles and extra storage. You'll be immediately at home in this lovely neighborhood surrounded by all the amenities of city life. Quick access to I-25 and 88th Ave RTD Station allows for easy commuting!

Single-Family Detached District

The Comprehensive Plan calls for the development of low density residential areas within the city. One of the main forms of low density residential development is the individual single-family home on its own lot. The Single-Family Detached District provides for the development and protection of this type of development. A variety of different lot sizes and housing forms are appropriate in this district depending on its location within the community and its relationship to adjacent areas. Specific lot configurations and architectural styles within this district shall be determined through the platting process and the development permit review process.
