Beautifully updated Hills East residence backing to park space, offering exceptional indoor-outdoor living and modern upgrades throughout. This former model home features soaring vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light, and refinished slate and hardwood flooring that enhance the home’s open floor plan. Ideally positioned on a lightly traveled street with a natural privacy buffer, the home provides both tranquility and convenience while offering larger square footage than a recent $1.65M neighborhood sale, delivering outstanding space and value. The thoughtfully designed main level flows seamlessly between living areas, private study, dining space, and family room, centered around an upgraded chef’s kitchen featuring matching granite countertops and backsplash, a waterfall-edge island, breakfast nook, quality appliances, and smart home features. Step outside to a backyard retreat backing to park space with mature trees, landscaped garden areas, extended outdoor living space, a spacious deck, and gas grill connection—ideal for entertaining or relaxing evenings. Upstairs includes four generously sized bedrooms, highlighted by an expansive primary suite with a Scandinavian-inspired bath featuring vaulted ceilings, heated tile floors, granite accents, modern fixtures, and a large walk-in closet. Two secondary bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bath, while the fourth bedroom offers its own private bathroom. The finished basement adds flexible living space with a fifth bedroom, 3/4 bath, bonus area, and storage. Additional highlights include refinished flooring, fresh interior paint, upgraded bathrooms, a fully paid Tesla solar system, Tesla EV charger, smart appliances, and a security system. Located within walking distance to the Cherry Creek Vista community pool and neighborhood amenities, and minutes from Cherry Creek State Park, DTC, Centennial Airport, and top-rated Cherry Creek schools.
