Overview

This is the house…you know the one…THE one which people point to on the block, and say…oh! You live in that house?!
Lovingly and meticulously cared for by true stewards of preservation. Originally hand-built and occupied by master stonemason George Dimbleby in 1926.

Exquisite! No cut-corners here. Tastefully updated with period finishes, but modern amenities. Quartz counters, stainless appliances, original oak hardwoods throughout.
Sun-drenched sunroom (owner’s favorite room in the house) is a wonderful space to admire your lovely, park-like yard, overflowing with perennials, complete with ditch rights, for low-cost watering.
Above the garage is an addition which houses a master suite-to-die-for! Complete with beautiful finishes, a huge walk-in closet, plus additional closets. Gorgeous crab-apple blooms outside your window rouse you from slumber. Secondary bedroom has an exterior entrance. Great for a live/work scenario, a nursery, or perhaps an Airbnb. The original part of the home has 3 charming bedrooms all upstairs. Excellent nanny quarter possibilities, or multi-generational living. But wait, there’s more…plenty of storage and potential to finish in the basement, and an envy-provoking finished 3 car garage!

 

To know The Glens is to fall in love. “I had no idea this was here!” is the common reaction to this very special neighborhood.

A hidden gem, like no other neighborhood. Located just 15 minutes west of Downtown. Developed in 1923 when Cyrus J. Creighton paid $32,000 for 80 acres. Creighton subdivided the farmland and hired Denver’s leading landscape architect Saco R. DeBoer to design the neighborhood with curving tree-lined lanes radiating from the pocket park at the center. A little country in the city. Located midway between Wadsworth and Kipling, and bounded by West Colfax and West 20th, Glen Creighton consists of large irregularly shaped lots on Scottish named streets and cultivates community with events (like the annual Easter egg hunt and 4th of July parade), not to mention the spontaneous neighborhood gatherings that are special to this very unique, highly-desirable enclave. Ask us about the neighborhood pool!

Just a few short miles from the city center, it is an urban retreat with all of the amenities of the city, just a walk, or a short Light Rail ride, away.
