ABOUT THE SPACE: This plush Carriage House located in one of Denver's oldest neighborhoods: the Historic Landmark District of Potter Highlands. Working Artist's Studio with Steampunk flair. This private detached dwelling has lots of light, and sits at the rear of a large inner-city lot behind a primary 1880's Victorian home. Centrally located in in the Highlands, AKA The Northside, it has an open concept great room (art space, kitchenette and living room), a separate bedroom, and a travertine and tile bath. There mini-split A/C and heat with separate service to each room, a gas fireplace/stove in the great room, skylights, and large outdoor space with a covered deck, and gazebo. The home is perfect for 1-2 guests, however, there is a sleeper futon, that can sleep two additional small guests, or one adult, for a maximum of 4. The bedroom has a plush queen maple bed with pillow top mattress. The home is a working artist studio and is very well appointed and comfortable, small teak dining table, large American Leather Studio down filled leather sofa and chair, wool carpets/throw rugs, period millwork, and six vaulted skylights with lots of natural light. The bedroom has room darkening shades for comfortable sleeping. Outdoors you will view luxurious flower and vegetable gardens throughout the property (summer months), a lovely copper gazebo, and a large grass yard for stargazing, sunbathing, or outdoor dining/BBQ grilling. There’s a pergola covered deck for outdoor dining. Copper gutters, wood clapboard, and custom diamond roofing shingles complete the Victorian cottage feel. This quaint artist’s retreat has custom touches and creative artworks throughout including artwork on the walls for sale. Please be aware some of the artwork includes tasteful nudes. If you do not want the nudes in the studio please give advance notice and I’ll cover or remove from the studio during your stay. Don’t worry the art materials are all removed and put away during your stay. You may see paint splatter on the floors (working studio), but they have been swept and mopped clean. Some paint stains cannot be removed, but that does not mean it is not a clean space. There is plenty of street parking. This main house was originally constructed in 1895. Most of the neighborhood is built up of late 1800’s Victorians, classic cottages, craftsman’s bungalows, and Denver squares and is great for walking. The cottage was built in the 1950s, with addition and complete renovations in 2008 and 2017. This quiet urban oasis is situated on over 10,200 square foot lot, extremely unusual for the inner City location, which gives a sense of peace and seclusion. Located 10 minutes from downtown by car, you’re within walking distance to stores, shops, restaurants, and bars. You’ll have easy driving access to I-70, I-25 and 6th Avenue Freeways to get to the airport, the mountains for skiing or sight-seeing, or to any other remote location. Uber or Lyft wait times are typically less than 5 minutes, and downtown is just a 30-minute walk. MMJ / 420 friendly property (smoke/vape outdoors only). GLBTQ & Straight Friendly.
