This Historic Brownstone, w/sandstone entry & double walnut doors, represents a gentler past, when horsepower still referred to horses & a person's home was truly a castle. Stunning original mantel w/ Vermont castings, 2 gas fireplaces, stained glass windows, & pocket doors, give grace & warmth to entry & living room. You will fall in love with the dramatic sweeping staircase leading to kitchen, w/pickled ash cabinets & access to 2nd floor deck, showcasing a panoramic view of Downtown Denver, the Aquarium, Pepsi Center, Elitche's, Maroon Bells, & the front range. The "Cat Walk" w/ (once gleaming) hardwood floors & original casement windows, leads you to the primary bedroom, highlighted by original cobalt blue, half-moon glass accent windows, floor-to-ceiling bookcases & a walk-in cedar closet w/balcony. The primary bath has Italian marble floors, plantation shutters, double vanities w/ recessed lighting, corian counter top, & period style sinks. Over the years, this magnificent residence has been updated with a commitment not to compromise the ambiance of a time of gracious living which included a 3-story dumb waiter & transom window. We are fortunate that this treasured residence is located on Stonemen's Row in the Denver Historic District which will protect it from demolition.
