Surrey Ridge, an easy-to-miss neighborhood tucked beneath bluffs along I-25 as you drive south out of the Denver basin, is nine minutes from Lone Tree’s classy Arts Center, Sprouts Market and the Charles Schwab campus, but it has the exact opposite attributes.
While Lone Tree’s closest new subdivisions show million-dollar homes packed onto quarter-acre sites, agent Stephanie Bryant will show you a remodeled four-bedroom/3-1/2 bath home in Surrey Ridge on Sunday, Feb. 9, on a site six times that size, wrapped in scrub oak and views of canyons. And itap just $868,500.
Owner Cindy Kessinger, who with her husband Gene Wenninger have 9474 Bay Lane on the market, is executive director of the Art Center’s Lone Tree Symphony Orchestra — scheduled to provide a swinging backup for crooner Steve Lippia and his Sinatra-styled repertoire on Friday, March 6.
Brokers comment now on how buyers have a strong preference for new designs that come with no projects entailed, but Kessinger’s interior design talents and Wenninger’s construction background already handled any issues like that in this up-to-date version of a 1969 trilevel.
You’ll see a plan with 3,077 finished feet including a full basement finish, where Kessinger has a baby grand and a singing studio.
The kitchen was remodeled twice over the past dozen years — now with a big island with quartz tops, double oven with convection unit, and a trendy white-on-gray palette that picks up on pigments of the home’s exterior and its low-maintenance oak landscape. There are wide expanses of white oak floors, and an attractive master suite and bath.
The home is the second the couple has remodeled in Surrey Ridge, and they’re thinking about building again here after this one sells.
Agent Bryant, of Huntington Properties LLC, will tell you about other attributes (originally from Surrey, England, she also now lives in Surrey Ridge), including keeping two horses.
Bryant will have treats out.
From Lone Tree’s RidgeGate Parkway, turn south on Havana a mile, then watch for a single-lane underpass under I-25, governed by a stoplight.
The news and editorial staffs of The Denver Post had no role in this postap preparation.
