Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this Golden home offers space, light, and a setting that supports how people actually live here. The lot stretches wider than most-8,364 sq ft with the majority behind the home-creating a backyard that feels open, usable, and ready for everything from a relaxed evening to weekend projects and gear staging. Inside, the main level is bright and comfortable with vaulted ceilings and an easy flow between living, dining, and kitchen spaces. Large windows bring in natural light and connect you to the yard. Recent updates include interior paint, new carpet, LVP flooring in the kitchen and basement bath, refreshed cabinet finishes, updated fixtures, and newer appliances-making the home feel clean, current, and move-in ready. The water heater and A/C were replaced in 2019. Upstairs, three bedrooms and two full baths provide separation and privacy, including a primary suite set apart from the secondary bedrooms. The partially finished basement-with a 3/4 bath already in place-offers flexibility for a workout area, guest setup, or future expansion. What truly sets this home apart is how it connects to Golden. The nearby Kinney Run Trail links directly to Colorado School of Mines and downtown Golden in one direction, and Apex Park in the other. From your front door, it's easy to bike to coffee, dinner, the farmers market, or festivals-no car required. At the same time, you're minutes from trailheads, Lookout Mountain climbs, and quick access west when the weekend points toward the mountains. The neighborhood has an easy, welcoming feel with nearby parks, Shelton Elementary, and a strong sense of community. And when you do need to head into Denver, the commute is straightforward and fast. A comfortable layout, meaningful updates, a larger yard, and direct access to some of Golden's best outdoor connections-this is a home base for an active Colorado lifestyle.
