2278 S Milwaukee Street, Denver, CO, 80210

Located just across the street from Observatory Park, this traditional two-story New England Saltbox offers timeless design in one of Denver’s most desirable neighborhoods. This home was built in 1963 by the current owners to replicate the love they had found for New England architecture while pursuing their studies in Boston. They were lucky to find this lot and an architect, Dick Gilbert, to help them create their vision. The freshly painted interior, true divided light windows, and oak floors create a move-in ready atmosphere with the fantastic opportunity to update. The main level is designed for everyday living and entertaining. There is a lovely living room with gas fireplace overlooking the park with an adjoining formal dining room. The dedicated study on this level with built in bookcases and closet could double as a guest room. Laundry space and a separate 3/4 bath are conveniently located on this level as well. The efficient kitchen has an electric cooktop, wall oven, and side by side refrigerator. The adjoining informal dining space offers generous extra storage. Just off the kitchen, and providing access to the backyard, is a spacious family room that was added in 1969. Adorned with Pine “Georgian board” tongue and groove paneling, large closets and tile floor this space serves as a comfortable family room. A large slider opens to an impeccably landscaped yard perfect for summer entertaining. The side load, two car garage sits on the alley. Back inside, the upper level has a large primary suite with adjoining bath overlooking the park and three additional bedrooms plus a hall bath. This well maintained home has a newer (2017) gas boiler, beefed up insulation and roof all of which should make it comfortable and carefree to years to come. This fantastic neighborhood is close to DU and boasts the Chamberlin Observatory just across the street! There is a park and playground too! Excellent elementary school, I-25 and numerous restaurants and shops nearby.
