Set on a large .3-acre fenced lot surrounded by mature trees and just feet from Lakewood Country Club, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the space, flexibility and established neighborhood setting that can be hard to find in this price range. Inside, multiple living areas give everyone room to spread out. The family room, complete with a wood-burning fireplace, opens directly to the covered back patio and expansive yard, creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living. Picture summer dinners on the patio, afternoons in the yard, weekend gardening projects or simply having enough space to entertain without feeling crowded. A storage shed provides extra room for tools, bikes and outdoor gear, while the attached two-car garage adds everyday convenience. Downstairs, the spacious basement offers even more flexibility for a game room, home gym, den, play space, hobbies, storage or whatever best fits your lifestyle. Comfort has also been thoughtfully addressed with a brand-new evaporative cooler paired with a whole-house fan for summer cooling, plus a boiler installed approximately five years ago providing comfortable baseboard heat through the colder months. The neighborhood may be one of the home’s biggest surprises. Mature trees, generous yards, quiet streets and a meandering creek give this pocket of Lakewood a peaceful, tucked-away feel that is increasingly difficult to find. You can enjoy the character and privacy of an established neighborhood while still being just minutes from shopping, restaurants, and 6th Ave. For buyers looking for more space, a true backyard, an attached garage and a quieter residential setting without giving up easy access to the city, this home offers a combination that is becoming increasingly hard to find in Lakewood. This home qualifies for the community reinvestment act providing 1.75% of the loan amount with a cap of $7,000 as a credit towards buyer’s closing costs, pre-paids and discount points.

Imagine you lace up your golf shoes, grab your clubs, and step outside to the scent of freshly cut grass drifting from hole three of Lakewood Country Club, directly across the street. After playing 18 holes, you stop at the clubhouse for a cocktail, say hello to the kids at the pool, then head home to prep for a fancy night out downtown. You enjoy dinner and a show at the Denver Performing Arts, or catch the Broncos, Nuggets, Avalanche, Rockies game, all just 10-15 minutes away. This setting offers the quiet, space, and natural beauty of a private retreat while keeping the best of Denver close at hand. Designed by architect Nicholas Antonopoulos, the home showcases a sculptural approach to form, light, and space. Antonopoulos collaborated on the addition and completion of Genesee’s iconic, “Sleeper House,” originally designed by Charles Deaton. This home reflects that same elite architectural pedigree. At the heart of the home, a dramatic rotunda-style great room makes an unforgettable impression with its domed ceiling, central skylight, arches, and curved wall of windows that overlook hole three of the Golf Course. The main level also features the primary suite with private deck and ensuite bath, plus a home office, kitchen, and dining room. The finished walk-out lower level offers 3 beds, 2 baths, a second living area, and a full kitchen and bar area. It's ideal for guests, game days, or gatherings with friends. Walk out to the back deck and enjoy nature on your over 1/2-acre lot. You may even have an occasional visit by deer or other wildlife. The Denver Performing Arts Complex, Ball Arena, Empower Field, downtown Golden, Red Rocks, Downtown Belmar, and access to the mountains via I-70 are all approximately 7 to 15 minutes, placing country club living, city entertainment, and Colorado adventure within easy reach.
