Nestled on a quiet .28-acre lot in Wheat Ridge's Applewood neighborhood, this classic brick ranch is a rare blend of mid-century character, thoughtful updates, and everyday livability-ready for its next chapter. Sunlight fills the living room with its gas fireplace and coved ceiling, flowing into a dining room and hardwood-floored eat-in kitchen. A bright sunroom offers the perfect spot for morning coffee, while the primary bedroom with 3/4 bath and two additional bedrooms-one with a built-in desk-provide comfort and flexibility. The basement extends the home's livability with a second expansive living room-ideal for media, play, or guest space-along with a non-conforming bedroom, an open updated laundry area, and an additional unfinished flex room perfect for storage, fitness, or future value-add. A sizable crawl space provides even more storage or long-term potential. Outside, enjoy the covered patio just off the back door, a 220v concrete pad for entertaining or unwinding, plus mature trees, a newer fence, and updated siding, roof, and garage door. A two-car garage, circular driveway, fresh paint, and new carpet complete the move-in-ready package. Close to Crown Hill Park, Applewood Village, additional parks, the Wheat Ridge Rec Center, Colorado Mills, light rail, and major highways, this home delivers comfort, character, and an effortless lifestyle.
