Every corner of this home reflects thoughtful craftsmanship with creative and artistic touches, and genuine warmth. You’ll find unique hand-picked features throughout, including reclaimed wood doors with vintage bubble-glass transoms from an old school in Denver leading into the mudroom, bathrooms, and lower level bedrooms.
