About This Home

As of February 2026

WHAT A VALUE! AND, WHAT A LOCATION IN OLDE TOWN ARVADA!! ALL MAIN FLOOR LIVING. Completely in move-in condition w/ just-refinished stunning real hardwoods & beautiful new carpeting. If someone has mobility challenges then this home will be a dream. It's entirely main floor living (three steps in from the front door & four in from the garage) & zero steps inside the home. It’s strolling/rolling distance (just a few blocks away on/near Grandview) to the 30+ fun & amazing shops/restaurants/library/Gold Line light rail station (with access to downtown & connections to DIA). This floorpan is brilliant. Each of the three bedrooms have a bit of space between them for privacy - perfect if you have: frequent out-of-town visitors; or, for two people working-from home on the phone/Zoom; a family with teenage kids; or, if you intend to house-hack and have a couple of housemates. The kitchen is grand-sized. The side-by-side washer-dryer are in the closet on the far end of the kitchen - AND with a real door you can close. Even the location of the furnace & water heater is amazing, in its own room, so no creepy crawl space to venture into. It has an attached garage + two off-street parking spaces. The garage is larger than many. Large enough to hold four motorcycles & a RAV4-sized car. It’s so tall that w/ a simple modification to the door , it’d easily accommodate a car lift. Commuting from here is a dream with quick access to I-70/Wadsworth; a quick walk to the Gold Line station; and just blocks off of the Clear Creek Bike Trail with connections to hundreds of miles of bike trails.
