Welcome to 493 S Lincoln-a stunningly updated craftsman half-duplex that blends historic charm with thoughtful modern updates, all in West Wash Park, one of Denver's most sought-after locations! Situated on a corner lot with beautiful curb appeal, this home greets you with a carved wood front door, elegant millwork, tall 9-foot ceilings, and vintage character like original hardwood floors and a fireplace featuring rare Van Briggle tile. Natural light pours in through newer high-efficiency windows, creating a warm, welcoming space while keeping the home quiet inside.
The kitchen was fully remodeled just over two years ago and features quartz countertops, designer tile backsplash, soft-close cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry with built-ins-making it as functional as it is beautiful. Both bedrooms offer generous closet space, including a walk-in closet in the primary and the updated bathroom continues the beautiful aesthetic. The basement adds 300+ sq ft with tall ceilings-perfect for finishing into a gym, office, or media room. Mechanical systems have been dialed in: new AC compressor (1.5 years ago), new windows, appliances, and a new sewer line (2.5 years ago), offering peace of mind for years to come. Outside, the beautifully landscaped front and fully-fenced backyard feel like a summer retreat, complete with a shade tree-perfect for BBQs with friends. A xeriscape garden along Lincoln adds low-maintenance curb appeal. And rare for the area, you'll find three off-street parking spots via the alley-ideal for a future garage. You're steps from Burndown, Wash Perk (weekend coffee + park walks!), Rebel Bread, Bon Ami, and all the great Broadway shops. Sam's Club and Safeway are walkable, and commuting is a breeze on the the RTD line. Yes, Lincoln is a busier street-but that means getting the Wash Park lifestyle for ~$200K less than similar homes just blocks away. Compare this to anything else on the market and you won't be disappointed!
