About this House

DAM EAST DIAMOND
Set on a tree-lined street in the established Dam East neighborhood, this classic brick ranch has the kind of curb appeal you can’t manufacture overnight. Mature trees and landscaping surround a home that has been part of the neighborhood since 1973, giving it a settled, established feel from the moment you arrive.

Inside, vaulted ceilings, a brick fireplace, and wood-framed windows give the living room warmth and character, while the updated kitchen brings a cleaner, more contemporary feel to the heart of the home.

But the standout renovation is the primary suite. Completely reimagined, the bathroom pairs a warm walnut vanity with dual matte-black vessel sinks, brushed-gold fixtures, and a walk-in shower finished floor-to-ceiling in waterfall-stone tile. It’s a surprisingly sophisticated upgrade—and a great example of how thoughtful renovation can transform a 1970s ranch.

And then there’s the neighborhood. Residents of The Dam enjoy access to private community amenities including a pool, tennis courts, and sand volleyball, all surrounded by the mature landscaping that gives the area its distinctive character.

With 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, 2,178 square feet, an oversized 2-car garage, and Cherry Creek Schools, this is a well-located, genuinely livable home with plenty to offer. The mature setting gives it the charm of an established neighborhood, while the updated kitchen and beautifully renovated primary suite give it a decidedly more current feel.
