Welcome to Henrietta, a timeless 1890 Washington Park Victorian that seamlessly blends historic charm with modern comfort in an unbeatable location. Start your mornings with coffee on the welcoming front porch and enjoy being steps from Denver’s best amenities. A quick, less-than-10-minute walk brings you to Lincoln Elementary, Wash Perk Coffee, The Pub on Pearl, Pearl Street Fitness, and the I-25/Broadway Light Rail Station. In just 15 minutes, you can walk to Starbucks, Whole Foods, Sprouts, Burndown, Joy Hill, Adelitas, and more, while Wash Park, Platt Park, Sushi Den, breweries and the Pearl Street Farmers Market are only slightly further. Enjoy the freedom of walking or biking everywhere—no need to drive! Immediate access to I-25 means getting home without battling city traffic! Inside, the main floor welcomes you with a spacious living room featuring a new gas fireplace, original exposed brick, and original hardwood floors (also beneath the lush living room carpet). The bright dining area, with its 9-foot ceilings and hardwood floors, flows into a kitchen complete with granite countertops, interior-lit cabinetry, and an exposed brick stove-pipe chimney. Upstairs, two peaceful bedrooms share a full bath, while the lower level reveals a serene primary suite with an egress window, sitting area, laundry, built-in closets, and a luxurious 3/4 bath featuring dual shower heads, double sinks, and ample storage. The backyard, shaded by mature trees in the summer, boasts lush grass, an irrigated lawn, and a two-car garage—an urban retreat just steps from it all. Deciduous trees add vibrant color in spring and fall. Thoughtful updates, including blown-in insulation, storm windows, with new sun shield and sound proofing windows upstairs, an evaporative cooler, new dishwasher (2024), hot water heater (2022), roof (2020) & fresh interior paint (2023), make this home truly special. Henrietta offers a rare blend of city convenience & historic charm in a beloved neighborhood!
