36 Hillside Drive Wheat Ridge CO 80215 MLS #REC2896400

Let us introduce you to the Knott House in Wheat Ridge’s Paramount Heights. Developed by Lee Doud and advertised in 1956 as a place where “you’ll enjoy a panorama of more than 100 miles of sharply silhouetted mountains stretching from Long’s Peak to the Snowy Range in Wyoming,” it truly is a “home with a view.” This quintessential low-slung Mid-Century ranch evokes the elegance of International Style modernism reminiscent of Mies van der Rohe and Pierre Koenig. Perched atop the hill, the home feels like a perfectly composed architectural jewel box. Natural light floods the kitchen which features beautifully detailed custom cabinetry, a colorful mosaic backsplash, and custom shelves. The living room is a showcase of glass framing sweeping mountain views, highlighted by original teal terrazzo tile and a striking dual-sided stack-bond brick fireplace that anchors both the living area and first bedroom. Marmoleum flooring runs throughout much of the home, preserving the authentic modern aesthetic. The ¾ bathroom features custom cabinetry and modern tile. The primary suite offers two walls of ribbon windows, a custom wood valance, and a walk-in closet. Its ensuite bathroom features a two-tone concrete Hydro Systems soaking tub, walk-in shower, and custom vanity. Quarter-sawn mahogany veneer details appear in the solid core doors, bedroom valance, and primary bath vanity. Outdoor living continues with a large, covered patio that functions as an outdoor living room with mountain views. The nearly half-acre lot includes custom garden beds and a fully fenced area. The garage is far more than just a garage. Designed to echo mid-century architecture, it features glass doors, stylized custom cut brick, a sunroom, and a 500-square-foot heated workshop ideal for a studio, office, or gym. Exterior details include Eichler narrow-line siding, Batu wood eaves, and recessed lighting. Almost brand new AC and furnace. Experience timeless architecture, simplicity, and modern convenience.
