Quiet street; 100 year old shade trees. Some houses are remodeled, this one has been reinvented. Built in 1917 on an approximately 10,000-sq-ft lot, 5341 Primrose blends the character of an old home with the comfort and infrastructure of a thoughtfully updated one. Original wood floors pair with reclaimed interior doors, historic timbers and carefully chosen finishes. The kitchen is a centerpiece, with upgraded cabinetry, designer tile, water filtration, new dishwasher and a fabulous 1953 O'Keefe & Merritt gas range. The bathroom continues the story with updated cabinetry and a reclaimed clawfoot tub. Much of the investment is behind the walls: new electrical throughout the home, garage and shed; updated kitchen and bath plumbing; sewer-line work from the house to the street; new furnace and ductwork; and added mini split A/C. Energy efficiency was considered throughout the renovation. Outside, vinyl siding was removed and replaced with stucco, along with new exterior paint, lighting, front porch, front and rear doors, security door, smart locks and hardware. The large backyard offers five raised garden beds, bamboo privacy fencing and a fire pit, while the detached garage and shed provide additional storage and workspace. The lot may also offer ADU potential, subject to Adams County requirements and buyer verification. Located in unincorporated Adams County with a Denver 80221 address, Berkeley Hills Park is practically around the corner. 5341 Primrose isn't a flip and doesn't feel like one. The owners preserved the quirks, materials and history that give an old house its soul while investing in the systems that make it comfortable today. Sellers are open to discussing furnishings separately.

A rare find in the heart of Five Points: two separate homes sharing one oversized, fully fenced lot, offering the kind of flexibility that's nearly impossible to come by this close to downtown. Live in the front and potentially Airbnb the back unit, or let a long-term tenant help offset the mortgage — the choice is yours. The front home is a beautifully updated 1-bedroom, 1-bath with a loft, converted and updated in 2020 with an eye toward the character of the surrounding block — right down to the roof, with everything in the home dating to that same 2020 update. The back home is a bright, charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath historic cottage, thoughtfully updated and meticulously maintained, set back off the street for extra privacy and paired with its own two-car garage; it's just as well cared for mechanically, with a 2026 furnace and air conditioning unit, a 2026 roof shared with the garage. Between the two, you get 1,422 square feet of well cared for living space and a genuinely unique setup. Outside, the shared yard is a standout in its own right — mature trees, a private half basketball court and workout area, and a fish pond turn the grounds into a real outdoor retreat, with plenty of room to entertain, garden, or just unwind. And with a Walk Score of 94 and a Bike Score of 96, you're minutes from RiNo, Downtown, Uptown, Curtis Park, and everything in between.

Situated on a tree-lined street in the heart of Denver's historic Whittier neighborhood, 2444 N Humboldt Street is a lovingly maintained 1893 brick Victorian offering both charm and practical space in one of central Denver's most connected neighborhoods. From the moment you step inside, original character and thoughtful improvements come together beautifully. Hardwood floors bring warmth to the main level, while a gas fireplace insert creates a quiet place to gather. A bonus room on the main floor gives the home valuable flexibility, easily adapting as a bedroom, home office, playroom, workout space, or den as your needs change. Upstairs, three bedrooms are together, including a generously sized primary bedroom, rare for this style of home. The unfinished basement adds another 745 square feet for seasonal gear, a workshop, or whatever you would rather not squeeze into your everyday living space, and has great potential to be finished. The home has been meticulously cared for, with major system updates including a newer furnace, central A/C, water heater, roof, sewer line, deck, and backyard landscaping and fencing. These are the less glamorous investments that make a tremendous difference in homeownership. A whole-house water filtration system provides filtered water throughout the home for drinking, cooking and bathing. The private and beautifully landscaped backyard feels like an extension of the home rather than simply a patch of outdoor space. The hard-lined gas fire pit makes impromptu evenings outside easy to enjoy without hauling propane tanks or dealing with firewood. Living here keeps some of Denver's best amenities remarkably close. City Park, the Denver Zoo, and the Denver Museum of Nature & Science are nearby, giving you acres of green space, trails, cultural attractions, and recreation. Head to 24th Ave or Welton Street for coffee shops, restaurants, and local businesses, or continue into RiNo and Downtown Denver for even more dining and entertainment.
