The Hellis House is a NW Denver Jewel! Located In the Heart of Highland in a quiet location, yet proximate to everything, this unmistakable property has rarely been offered for sale. The grand 1890's Queen Anne home was designed by Leonard Cutshaw, a prominent architect for the Hellis family who operated grocery stores. This is one of the earliest constructed homes in the Witters addition and yet it has been meticulously maintained and tastefully updated over time by only a few loving owners. You can immediately tell that this was a very expensive home to build. Set on a sturdy rhyolite foundation, original elements rarely seen remain - exquisite fireplaces, lincrusta dados, ornate picture rails and the oak hand-grained pocket doors still function smoothly. All rooms are very generous in size. The current owners completely updated and expanded the kitchen into the butler's pantry. The second floor offers 3 spacious bedrooms (one with a balcony), a period bath, and a large laundry room (could easily add another bathroom here). The spectacular master suite is on the vaulted 3rd level with impressive mountain & city views. Accessed through a "secret" display case, the basement is immaculate and large (estimated at 900sqft - which is more than public records shows). The large lot is surprisingly easy to maintain with established landscaping surrounding the home. Original wrought-iron fence with flagstone and brick walkways. The back yard is made for entertaining and relaxing w/ water feature, flagstone patio, redwood deck and a hot tub. The detached 2-car garage sits on a dead-end (almost completely private) alleyway. The home is adjacent to a quiet and well-manicured monastery & backs to an elementary school field -this open air feel provides peaceful privacy with views for days! Excellent LoHi/Potter Highlands location - proximate to the hottest Restaurants, Night Life and Sports Venues. WATCH 3D DRONE VIDEO at: 3529wyandot.com
