Here is a cheerful fact: this tri-level home near Belmar is ready for its next chapter.

The current owners have already done many of the sensible things. There is brand-new carpet underfoot, fresh paint on the walls, updated light fixtures overhead, and a brand-new HVAC system complete with a 10-year warranty—which is reassuring, because furnaces and air conditioners have a habit of choosing the hottest or coldest day of the year to remind us of their mortality.

The kitchen contains enough cabinet and counter space to prepare a holiday feast, a midnight snack, or whatever lies between. Nearby sits a wood-burning fireplace, waiting patiently for winter to arrive and give it purpose. When summer returns, an enclosed back patio offers a place to sit in the shade and contemplate the strange beauty of Colorado weather.

The large corner lot provides room for recreational vehicles, weekend toys, gardening projects, energetic dogs, ambitious children, or all of the above. The lower level even features a separate entrance, creating possibilities for guests, multigenerational living, or supplemental income—because life is expensive and creativity is useful.

The location is equally agreeable. An elementary school is within walking distance, while public transit, shopping, restaurants, and everyday conveniences are just minutes away. The nearby greenbelt, parks, and walking trails offer opportunities to stretch your legs and remember that fresh air is still free.

And then there is Ruby Hill Park and Levitt Pavilion, where summer evenings often arrive carrying the sound of free live music drifting across the neighborhood. It’s the sort of thing that reminds people that community still exists and that not every worthwhile experience comes with a ticket price.

A comfortable home, thoughtful updates, a flexible floor plan, a new HVAC system with a 10-year warranty, and one of Denver’s most enjoyable outdoor music venues just around the corner.
