1624 Adams St, Denver, CO 80206

Property Description

It's Bigger On The Inside. This incredible diamond-in-the-rough investment opportunity is waiting for you. The main floor features original wood floors, 9'6" ceilings, one large bedroom, a full bath with original clawfoot tub, fireplace, 48x72" double hung vinyl windows, and three original leaded glass windows. Upstairs are two large bedrooms, a large tiled bathroom, original wood floors, 9'0" ceilings, generous closets, laundry room, and a cute little balcony. The basement is a full 2BR, 1BA garden apartment with separate entrance, full kitchen, large closets, 7'6" ceilings, and 28x28" windows. In years past it's served as both a long term rental. The combination of block and plaster have enough mass to provide a surprising amount of both thermal insulation and soundproofing. This 1905 balloon-framed house is still solid and square with straight ridgelines. Outside are a nice sized back yard, two zone sprinkler system, and a brick 2.5 car garage. By two different covenants, there can never be a building taller than the house at 1600 Adams Street, and the small overflow parking lot for an apartment building on Cook Street means this house should never have a neighbor to the South. But it's a low volume lot, and the home's tall stature prevents headlight sweep; the living room window sills are 6'6" off the ground. The location simply cannot be beat. Within a five block radius you have two major bus lines, a Sprouts grocery store, dozens of small stores and restaurants, a major hospital, an excellent high school, a municipal rec center, one of Denver's most renowned concert venues, City Park Pavillion, Ferril Lake, Gates Planetarium, the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, and the Denver Zoo. Yet in this perfect sweet spot of a location, you can walk out into the street on a Friday night and see the Zoo Lights over the water to your right, the neon of Colfax to your left, yet hear absolutely none of it.
