Imagine it's 1982 and you have the opportunity to build your dream home. You first choose a small community of custom homes. The Churchill neighborhood remains one of Aurora's hidden gems. Then you choose a ranch floor plan because you never want to move again. You make sure that everything is top quality. The home is all brick which remains in perfect condition after 40 years, the best wood frame windows available were installed which are like new today. You install an intercom with a radio and cassette tape player. The showers all have steam! The hot tub is built-in to the floor of the 500 square foot sun room. You imagine that someday you you might want to expand and finish the basement so you have a full brick fireplace installed. It turns out that having 3,400 square feet up stairs is enough and the basement remains unfinished awaiting someone that needs another 2,700 of living space. Due to the size of the home you would install two discrete HVAC systems and two water heaters. Both of the furnaces and water heaters have been replaced in recent years. You build an outdoor water feature so that you can hear the falling water with your bedroom window open. The roof has been replaced with a steel, tile pattern shingle. Does the home NEED updating? No, everything with the possible exception of the hot tub is working perfectly. Will you want to update - perhaps or you might just love living in a time warp mid-century jewel. The Front Range Trail and Cherry Creek Spillway Trail are accessed nearby. They provide miles of biking and hiking adventure. The nearby Cherry Creek State Park can also be accessed from the trail system.
