Crestmoor Contemporary: Main-Floor Primary, Solar & Finished Basement
Thoughtfully reimagined and expansive, 463 Locust Street delivers contemporary living on a generous 10,100 SF lot in Denver’s coveted Crestmoor corridor. At approximately 4,501 square feet, the home is arranged for flexible everyday life and entertaining: a highly desirable main-floor primary suite opens to the backyard and features a spa-style bath and walk-in closet, while upstairs and in the fully finished lower level you’ll find additional bedrooms, a home office with private patio access, and a wet-bar equipped basement suite ideal for guests or multi-generational living.
The main living area centers on a striking fireplace and a chef-ready kitchen anchored by a large island and premium finishes (per listing). Sliding doors and thoughtful transitions connect interior spaces to a private back patio with jacuzzi and an outdoor fire pit — a natural extension of the entertaining flow during Colorado evenings. Practical high-value features include fully paid solar panels, which materially reduce utility costs, and an attached two-car garage with additional driveway parking.
From a lifestyle perspective, this property checks many boxes: single-level primary living, abundant secondary bedroom space, finished basement with its own bath and wet bar, and a rare, usable half-acre-scale lot within walking distance of Crestmoor Park. Proximity to Cherry Creek shopping and dining, easy access to trails and downtown Denver make this a fantastic choice for buyers seeking both neighborhood quiet and city convenience.
Sellers are motivated and will evaluate reasonable offers. Please verify room counts and features via MLS disclosures and schedule a showing to experience the thoughtful layout and outdoor living areas firsthand.

A factual market snapshot around 463 Locust St.
The Crestmoor/University Hills pocket remains one of Denver’s more stable upper-tier neighborhoods. Inventory is typically tight for move-in-ready single-family homes with premium features like a main-floor primary and finished basement. Median prices in nearby pockets tend to be significantly above the citywide median; well-updated homes command strong interest from move-up buyers, downsizers seeking one-level convenience, and families prioritizing outdoor space and school options. While the overall Denver market has moderated from the peak volatility years, demand for turnkey, larger single-family homes in premium neighborhoods remains healthy and can lead to competitive showings if marketed properly.
Primarily single-family residential; local Denver zoning typically allows single unit detached dwellings with accessory structures subject to setback rules.
