A Rare Piece of Denver History in the Heart of Capitol Hill
Welcome to 1215 Emerson Street, Unit A-a stunning main-floor Victorian condo in one of Denver's most walkable neighborhoods, you're just steps from some of Denver's best restaurants, bars, grocery stores, cafes and a short walk to both Cheesman Park and Civic Center Park. The home blends historic charm with thoughtful updates. Designed in 1886 by renowned architect Glen Wood Huntington, this home showcases timeless craftsmanship, high ceilings (nearly 10'), original hardwood floors, and a wood-burning fireplace with intricate period details.
Natural light pours into the open layout, where vintage built-ins and elegant finishes add warmth and character. The recently updated kitchen features new appliances, quartz countertops, fresh paint, a stylish backsplash and a modern light fixture which ties together the overall aesthetic. The spacious primary bedroom includes tall ceilings, generous closet space, and an updated en-suite bathroom. The second bedroom offers great flexibility as a guest room, office, or workout space, and a second full bath makes the layout perfect for roommates or visitors.
Enjoy outdoor living with two separate spaces-a welcoming front porch and a covered back deck overlooking mature landscaping, including irises, hibiscus, and columbine, all maintained by an automatic irrigation system.
Additional features include an extra-deep single-car detached garage with built-in shelving, smart garage door opener, and side-door access, plus an oversized (8' X 11') private storage unit in the basement. Shared laundry is conveniently located downstairs and includes a smart washer/dryer.
Perfect for Colorado and filled with character, this is a rare find in the heart of the city. Compare it to anything else on the market and you will not be disappointed!
