About the property

Distinctive 3-Bed Contemporary on Quiet Cul-de-Sac — 2,275 SF

This distinctive tri-level contemporary home on a quiet cul-de-sac blends dramatic interior volume with thoughtful family-friendly spaces. Enter into a vaulted living area framed by skylights, built-in bookcases, and a fireplace — anchored by a memorable metal palm-tree art feature that wraps a support beam and creates a conversation-starting focal point. The adjacent eat-in kitchen offers white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, granite counters, recessed lighting, pantry storage, and a convenient pass-through/bar that keeps the kitchen connected to daily living and entertaining.

The principal bedroom is luminous and practical with direct backyard access, three mirrored closets, and a private bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower. Two additional bedrooms and a main bath complete the upper living level. Downstairs, the finished basement with plush carpeting expands options for a media room, home office, gym, or guest suite — adding valuable usable square footage and flexibility for growing households. Throughout, warm wood flooring and thoughtfully integrated built-ins contribute to a lived-in, character-forward feel.

Step outside to a fully fenced backyard where a deck, paved patio, and covered patio create multiple outdoor rooms for grilling, dining, or quiet evenings. The home sits behind a brick-accented facade and concrete driveway; the listing description references an attached two-car garage — please confirm at showing. Located in southeast Aurora with straightforward access to Hampden and Parker corridors, this home balances neighborhood calm with close-by shopping, dining, and recreational options.

Unique design details and a flexible floor plan make this property ideal for a family seeking move-in-ready space with personality, or an investor looking for a solid suburban rental with a finished basement. Schedule a showing to see the architectural details that set this home apart.

This pocket of southeast Aurora is a mix of established single-family neighborhoods with convenient access to major arterials (Hampden, Parker). The area appeals to buyers seeking suburban lot sizes, practical commuting routes to Denver and tech/employment centers to the southeast, and straightforward access to retail and recreation without the premium of central-Denver neighborhoods.

Editorial market perspective

Southeast Aurora sits at the intersection of affordability and accessibility for the Denver metro area. As of early 2026 the local market shows moderate competition: inventory is still lower than pre-pandemic norms, but buyer demand is more selective than in 2021–22. Median single-family sale prices in the broader Aurora corridor are in the low $500Ks, with well-presented homes moving within approximately 3–6 weeks. Properties offering extra usable area (finished basements, multi-zone outdoor spaces) and practical layouts continue to attract families and long-term renters. For buyers, this is an opportunity to secure a larger footprint at a price point often below comparable central-Denver neighborhoods; for sellers, highlight the finished basement and unique interior features to stand out in a measured market.
