About This Home

This beautifully updated ranch townhome is tucked in the back of the community in a serene, private, park-like setting. This end unit has been meticulously maintained with thoughtful updates and features a rare oversized 2-car attached tuck-under garage. The main floor boasts soaring vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, engineered hardwood floors, a charming kitchen, abundant natural light, an open floor plan, and a main floor primary bedroom and bath. The kitchen features newer stainless-steel appliances including an LG refrigerator and LG Pro Bake range with impressive features — air fryer, convection, and proofing settings — plus two GE Café dishwasher drawers, pull-out slide-outs in the lower cabinets, and an eat-in bar! The kitchen opens to the living room, perfect for casual dining. The main floor primary is a true, full-sized bedroom with dual closets, a ceiling fan, and a picture window. The bathroom features a tiled shower, a large soaking tub, and a vanity. Major system updates - new electrical panel, air conditioner, windows, interior paint, and solar panels that currently provide approximately 67% of the home's electricity. Smart, wifi-enabled appliances include the refrigerator, range, thermostat, and garage keypad and opener. The oversized two-car attached tuck-under garage offers excellent storage space with an adjacent laundry room — a true bonus for any buyer. Additional public parking spaces are nearby. Enjoy the outdoors on the front porch or the side of the home, which looks onto a green area with mature trees, flowering bushes, beautiful perennials, and a garden oasis feel. The HOA covers the roof, exterior maintenance, water, sewer, trash, and grounds maintenance. The location is exceptional with prime access to bus stop a block away, light rail 2 miles away, Hwy 225, Aurora Hills Golf Course, the Highline Canal, Anschutz/Children's and VA Medical Campus, Del Mar Park, the Denver Tech Center, DIA and abundant shopping and dining.
