740 N Franklin Street

Description

Designed by renowned Denver architect Harry Manning (famous for some of Denver’s grandest mansions and estates) and completely remodeled top to bottom during the past year. This proud home sits up from the street on a hill that adds to the home’s curb appeal and highlights the unique architecture and broad front porch with covered loggia. 740 Franklin is light, bright, and uniquely open for a historic home. With large rooms and high ceilings, theres a new kitchen that features timeless shaker-style cabinets, Wolf, Sub-Zero, Viking appliances, and white subway tile. The main floor also boasts a powder room, mudroom (so sought after today), plus two coat closets, a butlers pantry with a wine/beverage refrigerator, and a food pantry. Upstairs, you will find five bedrooms (or four plus a perfect home office), three remodeled bathrooms, (one with beautiful original white tile and the original historic bathtub), and a laundry closet. The primary bedroom has an updated ensuite bath with Carrera marble, a large walk-in shower, a soaking tub, a toilet closet, and two sinks. The primary bedroom also has two spacious walk-in closets (not often found in homes of this era), one with a custom-designed Elfa system. There is a large finished recreation room with a fireplace, an updated 1/2 bath, wine room, laundry room, and tons of storage in the basement. The home has newer mechanicals, including a 3 zone boiler, hot water heater, central air, updated plumbing, and electrical. Outdoors there is a private yard with brick walls and, best of all, a nearly completed brand new true two-car garage. Conveniently located near Cherry Creek, Downtown and within the East High School boundary, this is a beautifully updated home on a gorgeous block in a great location.
