At 748 N Downing Street, history and modern design meet in perfect harmony. Listed at $1,700,000, this restored 1907 home sits in the coveted 7th Avenue Historic District, where century-old trees and timeless architecture define one of Denver’s most iconic streetscapes.
With 4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and 3,501 square feet, the home blends original craftsmanship with refined modern upgrades. A parlor fireplace wrapped in Ann Sacks tile sets the tone, while an original curved glass bay window brightens the dining room. The remodeled kitchen, finished with cherry cabinetry and Bosch appliances, connects seamlessly to a family room and French doors that open onto a private backyard retreat—complete with a 400 sq. ft. pergola-shaded patio, Hugelkultur garden, rose beds, and the historic carriage house turned garage.
Upstairs, the spa-like primary suite offers a luxurious bath and oversized walk-in closet, with a second bedroom and bath nearby. The third floor expands the possibilities with flexible space for work or play. And here’s where the opportunity shines: the finished basement includes a private suite with its own entrance and laundry, ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or as an income-producing rental unit—a perfect house hacking setup in one of Denver’s most desirable neighborhoods.
Peace-of-mind upgrades include a new furnace (2025), custom Jellyfish lighting (2023), updated electrical and plumbing (2016), sewer line (2022), and A/C (2017).
With a Walk Score of 91 and close access to Cheesman Park, Denver Botanic Gardens, Cherry Creek, and local shops, this home is more than a residence—it’s a living landmark with built-in investment potential.
