Property Description
A truly rare opportunity to own a classic Montclair gated mini-estate w/ stunning good looks & a birds-eye view into a real life Castle! Stately 1200 Olive Street is Denver Blue Chip Real Estate at its finest. It sits on a large corner lot where Olive dead-ends, limiting traffic, & overlooks the storied Richthofen Castle. Situated in historic Montclair, mere steps from Montclair Park. It features a classic Colonial red brick facade w/ masterful detail, white trim, & a new onyx black roof. The grounds are lush & private w/ hedges that are sheer genius. In back, there's a lovely red flagstone patio, w/ a perfect, calming water feature. The home possesses a rare state of the art 3 car garage w/ heat & A/C, & a grand entrance that includes custom double iron gates flanked by brick pillars. The driveway is heated & large enough for a great sports court. The sellers, only the 3rd owners & purists at heart, have consciously chosen to preserve much of the home's original state, which has paid dividends. Inside one is immersed in period charm w/ intriguing details at every turn. Upstairs, you'll step out onto a timeless balcony w/ the Richthofen Castle as your focal point. For those wanting a larger, modern kitchen, plans are included that illustrate a gorgeous design that checks all the boxes including a small island w/ eat-in function. The plan captures space from the existing breakfast nook & pantry which produces dimensions of 15' X 12.5'. No expensive addition needed. Renderings have also been created for a master bath w/ a spa-like European glass shower & bench, along w/ a tweak that allows for a double vanity. In addition, should the desire exist, the upstairs ceilings vault to 12'. Homes on the block w/ smaller & less remarkable lots have recently sold for $1.5 & $1.4MM. This home is a rare & special offering! Few homes in Denver possess Olive's combination of beauty and storybook setting! Purchase of this home is truly a Blue Chip investment!
