Description

Thoughtfully remodeled Hilltop ranch offers bright, open one-floor living with timeless finishes throughout. Renovated as a custom homeowner remodel, the updates were completed with intention, quality, and long-term livability in mind. Set on a private, fully fenced, 9,370 sq ft lot, the home sits slightly elevated above the street, creating a quiet, retreat-like feel with exceptional privacy.

The main living space is filled with natural light from large windows and anchored by a cozy gas fireplace. Fresh paint and refinished hardwood floors create a warm, cohesive backdrop. The kitchen features white quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a peninsula for morning coffee. A newly remodeled pantry/utility room includes quartz counters and custom cabinets. A charming Dutch door connects directly to the backyard for seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The family room adds flexible living space and opens through dual French glass doors to a flagstone patio, extending the home beautifully for entertaining or relaxing. The dining area connects easily within the open layout, and a dedicated office/den or additional family room provides ideal work-from-home space.

The primary suite is expansive and serene, complete with a walk-in closet and a luxurious five-piece bath featuring a soaking tub framed by windows and greenery, a rainfall shower, and heated concrete zellige tile floors. Two secondary bedrooms are bright and well-sized, and the hall bath has been recently updated.

Outside, a professionally landscaped backyard feels exceptionally private with mature trees, garden beds, a large flagstone patio, and a tucked-away hot tub nook. An attached two-car garage and crawl space offer excellent storage. Major systems are new or newer, including windows, doors, furnace, HVAC, AC, irrigation, water heater, and appliances.

    "Most of the high school kids in this neighborhood go to private schools such as Mullen, Regis, and Valor. The closest public school isn't the best Denver public school. many kids will go out of their way to go to East High School instead. kids in this neighborhood are pretty friendly, however."

    "Great schools, great parks, great local businesses that support the needs of the neighborhood. Crestmoor area is arguably better, in terms of location as well as access to transportation and local businesses."

    "I recently moved to Denver with my family from overseas. I love Hilltop. Its a great blend of nice houses, great parks, relaxed atmosphere yet minutes from downtown and Cherry Creek North. Perfect for families with kids. Very safe. Very nice people (at least on our block)."
