Discover a true garden oasis on a rare, nearly one-acre lot in the heart of coveted Lakewood Heights. Offered for the first time in over 50 years, this exceptional property delivers 3,606 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space across a main residence and a beautifully appointed accessory dwelling unit (ADU)—ideal for multi-generational living, working from home, or flexible income opportunities. The 2,114 SF main home features two bedrooms plus an office, while the 1,492 SF ADU offers a one-bedroom, two-bath layout with a loft—perfect for long-term, mid-term, or short-term rental potential, or simply living in one and enjoying the other as a private workspace or guest retreat. The grounds are truly magical. Recently landscaped, the outdoor living spaces include a fully covered patio with built-in fire pit, serene pond, hot tub, outdoor kitchen, and lush gardens filled with mature trees, perennials, and raised beds—all supported by coveted ditch water. Inside the main home, a chef’s kitchen anchors the open-concept living areas, featuring a custom Viking gas range, high-end appliances, expansive island, granite countertops, pantry, and a striking double-sided gas fireplace. A desirable split floor plan creates a private primary suite wing with ensuite bath and walk-in closet, while the kitchen, dining, and gathering spaces flow seamlessly for effortless entertaining. This property offers the rare feeling of a private retreat, yet sits just two blocks from the W Line, providing direct access to downtown Denver and the foothills. Blending character, charm, and thoughtful modern updates, this is a truly special opportunity—one that rarely comes to market.
