Property Description
Step into a rare architectural gem, a custom-built mid-century modern home from 1956, crafted by a distinguished interior designer whose work spanned New York, Washington DC, and Denver. This 3600+ sq. ft. residence blends timeless elegance with extraordinary craftsmanship, offering 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 kitchens, 2 living areas, and a versatile bed/office/flex room.
From the moment you enter, the home's artistry captivates. A floating red stone staircase with an iron base leads to the basement, while inlaid flagstone floors and knotty pine beam ceilings adorn the great room and gallery walls. Seven stained glass windows and four bottle-base glass windows create a kaleidoscope of light throughout the home, complemented by two handcrafted red stone fireplaces.
The main kitchen is an entertainer's dream, featuring solid birch cabinetry crafted from a single tree, mirrored cabinet doors, a central cooking island with a large copper hood, stainless steel countertop, and hand-poured resin dividers with embedded botanical elements —a testament to the home's unique artisan details. The basement includes a summer kitchen, expansive recreation room with a hand-painted floor by a Norwegian artist, flex room, and 3/4 bath, offering a perfect blend of function and flair.
Additional details in this well preserved mid-mod include double-pane casement windows, solid walnut exterior doors, deep 2-car garage with cedar storage cabinets and reinforced steel door, and hot water heating with industrial pump. Vintage wall coverings sourced from design work at the White House and Denver's Brown Palace reflect the home's sophisticated historic lineage.
As one of the first homes in University Hills, this residence stands as a true Denver architectural gem—a rare opportunity for design enthusiasts seeking timeless elegance and historic provenance.
