Property Description

The best, for the most, for the least. This was Sternberg’s ethos when designing the simple yet remarkably livable homes of the first block of Arapahoe Acres. Each residence was thoughtfully positioned to create privacy and intimate “outdoor living rooms,” while the neighborhood’s curvilinear streets, a radical concept at the time, remain one of its defining features today. The legacy lives on in one of Colorado’s most exclusive mid-century modern enclaves. Known as the James House, this residence is a wonderful example of the thoughtful planning and timeless design that defines Arapahoe Acres. As the first post-WWII neighborhood recognized on the National Register of Historic Places, Arapahoe Acres is more than a neighborhood; it is a true community united by architecture. Inside, simple yet elegant design elements define the home. A central fireplace acts as both room divider and the heart of the home, while ribbon windows and interior brick seamlessly connect indoors and out. The thoughtfully updated kitchen respects the home’s original flow while incorporating modern conveniences and intentional finishes. Large closets and spacious bedrooms with exposed brick create quiet, comfortable spaces. The refreshed hallway bathroom maintains the original footprint and blends character with tasteful updates including a new vanity and refreshed tile. The original carport was carefully transformed by a prior owner into a stunning primary suite, featuring original clerestory windows, a spacious bedroom area with wood slat detailing, and a generous closet. The newly updated primary bathroom offers a floating vanity, dramatic tile accent wall, deluxe soaking tub, and an impressive walk-in shower. The generous backyard features a storage shed, a green house, and a quiet space to read a book on a Sunday afternoon. A rare opportunity to enter Arapahoe Acres under seven figures with a turnkey, thoughtfully updated home. Your mid-mod dream home awaits.
