Five minutes west of the Denver Tech Center, Greenwood Village has a three-mile-wide tier of neighborhoods between Belleview Avenue and Orchard Road that has the feel of Cherry Hills Village — large homesites including horse properties, bordering some of the prettiest sections of the High Line Canal trail. Those properties struggled to come back after the 2009 real estate downturn, but Re/Max Professionals agent Jim Romano says custom homes on acreage sites have returned into demand now — and he has one to show you, 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 8, thatap already getting interested buyers.
At 2805 E. Long Court, in the Long Road area of Greenwood Village, you can tour a newly-completed makeover of a home originally built in 1995, that slipped into foreclosure during the down market — now every bit the picture of a new custom home. “It was vacant for years, an eyesore of the neighborhood,” says Romano. “Now itap a jewel.”
On the market at $3.25 million, it has more than 8,500 finished square feet with five bedrooms and seven baths, including a lavish makeover of one wing into a second, main-floor master suite. The contemporary plan is wrapped around a spectacular pool with waterfall, spout-fountain, spa tub, grill and firepit — matched to a 2,000-foot pool pavilion wing where builder/remodeler Vinny Curran of Veranda View made substantive alterations, including a kitchen/bar, tile floors and a gas-ribbon fireplace. Curran readapted the interior of the home throughout, into a bright, contemporary look thatap hard to distinguish from anything custom builders are creating now.
On a 2.35-acre site thatap steps from fall colors along the canal, you’ll see a revised traffic flow between the entertaining areas and the bedroom suite level via a new staircase, a gourmet Wolf/Sub-Zero kitchen with hearth room, new European white-oak floors, multiple balconies, a large study with cherry finishes and built-ins, finished basement, and three two-car garages. While Greenwood Village works on its own makeover of Long Road, you can only reach the open house (1-4 p.m. Oct. 8) from the east. From I-25 take Orchard west three miles (becomes Long Road); continue west past the detour to a temporary end at Long Court; or call Romano at 303-809-8822.
