Description
Nestled in the heart of Denver's historic Park Hill neighborhood, this 1934 two-story brick home exudes timeless elegance. From its classic architectural details to its warm and inviting ambiance, every corner tells a story.
Added value comes with the nearly complete detached ADU and a subdividable 12,500 sq ft lot. With the home positioned to one side, the lot can be legally split to create another build site while keeping the existing residence. See photos for a site plan showing the proposed division, which has received preliminary verbal approval from the City of Denver. Or, keep the quadruple lot intact and enjoy your own small urban park! Marketable double lot sells in the $400-450K range.
Enhancing versatility, the ADU above the detached two-car garage is perfect to complete as a rental, mother-in-law suite, home office, gym, or studio. What would you make it?
