About 8244 W Iowa Avenue

Thoughtfully updated and impeccably maintained, this corner-lot home offers a flexible layout, inviting outdoor spaces, and a long list of improvements that make it truly move-in ready. The main level features warm hardwood flooring, two bedrooms, including an expanded primary bedroom with a bonus room (easily converted back to a 3rd main floor bedroom if needed), and a full bathroom, while the finished basement extends the living space with a large recreation or family room, two non-conforming bedrooms, a second bathroom, and a spacious laundry/utility room with abundant shelving and storage. The backyard is a standout feature, offering a private and peaceful setting with established garden beds, a thoughtfully designed chicken coop, and newer fencing (2021). Whether you're an avid gardener, enjoy entertaining outdoors, or simply appreciate having your own quiet retreat, this space offers plenty of possibilities and a unique opportunity to embrace a little more farm-to-table living. Numerous improvements provide peace of mind, including a new roof in 2026, approximately six-year-old HVAC system and water heater, whole-house air filtration system, and a newer radon mitigation system installed in 2025. The home's flexible floor plan and generous storage make it equally well suited for those looking for room to grow or those ready to simplify without giving up useable space. Ideally situated near Belmar, the home offers easy access to restaurants, shopping, entertainment, parks, a small lake, and nearby schools. Convenient access to 6th Avenue and 285 makes commuting to Downtown Denver or heading to the foothills simple and convenient. An unexpected change in plans has created this opportunity: the sellers purchased the home in May with every intention of making it their own, but a work transfer is taking them out of state. Their loss is your gain - this is your chance to make this special home yours!
