About the property

Renovated 1939 Mid-Century on Double Lot — 2 Blocks to Sloan's Lake

A rare double lot and thoughtful renovation combine to create an exceptional Denver residence two blocks from Sloan's Lake. Built in 1939 and comprehensively updated in 2016, this Mid-Century Modern home offers 2,866 sqft of finished living across two stories plus a finished basement. The main level flows openly from the refined kitchen—custom cabinetry, quartz counters, stainless appliances—into a living and dining area anchored by a gas fireplace and views to the private backyard. A flexible bedroom or office and full bath complete this floor.

Upstairs, the primary suite is a dramatic retreat: vaulted 12-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, a private deck that frames western mountain sunsets, a large walk-in closet, and a spa-like five-piece bath with soaking tub and glass-enclosed shower. The second upstairs suite provides generous closet space and its own full bath plus convenient laundry.

The finished lower level expands usable living with a media/family room wired for surround sound, a conforming bedroom, and a full bath—ideal for guests, teen quarters, or a work-from-home setup. Outside, a covered patio overlooks a newly fenced, deep backyard that offers rare scope for play, gardening, or future expansion. Completing the offering is an oversized detached two-car garage and driveway parking.

This property uniquely blends timeless character with modern comforts, generous outdoor space uncommon for inner Denver, and immediate access to Sloan's Lake, Highlands dining, and the 32nd Street corridor. Showings by appointment — contact listing agent Kate Perry at 303-810-0474 for details.

Editorial market perspective

Sloan's Lake and West Highlands remain among Denver's most sought-after inner-ring neighborhoods due to proximity to the lake, strong walkability, and easy access to downtown. As of March 2026, single-family inventory in this micro-market is tight and properly renovated homes with outdoor space—especially those on larger-than-average lots—tend to trade quickly and at a premium. Median single-family sale prices in the immediate area are elevated relative to broader Denver, and properties with double lots or superior finishes can command a higher price-per-square-foot. For buyers, this is an opportunity to secure a turnkey, move-in residence close to parks, dining, and trails; for sellers, well-priced listings still attract multiple offers. Confirm current mortgage rates and local inventory levels for timing and negotiation strategy.
