Designed by Edward Hawkins, the legendary local architect behind south Denver's Arapahoe Acres, 3050 Forest Street is a singular mid-century artifact of Denver history. The bones are the beginning: custom handmade wall paneling and built-ins appear throughout, each element precisely considered rather than simply decorative. The brick central fireplace presides over the heart of the home with the authority and style to last for generations, and the main level floor plan, genuinely singular, unfolds with its own earned coherence: three bedrooms, one and a half baths, two living rooms, a breakfast nook, a kitchen, and a dining room, all arranged with flow, utility, and the assumption that people will gather here to create memories. Downstairs, the basement carries potential as a lock-off apartment, with room for a second kitchen alongside an existing bedroom, living room, and three-quarter bath. The mechanical updates are recent and meaningful: the furnace and AC are less than a year old, the water heater is new, and new main floor windows were custom-fabricated for the home's specific elevation. Solar panels fix the monthly power bill at a low transferrable rate. Outside, garden nooks and walking paths wind throughout this generous lot, and an attached one-car garage with additional surface parking means the question of where to put your vehicles is one you will never have to ask. Unrestricted street parking is open for all of your visitors. And Park Hill handles the rest with no HOA: City Park, the Denver Zoo, the Museum of Nature and Science, bike lanes, Long Table Brewing, Spinelli's, Honey Hill, and a new public park taking shape on the old Park Hill Golf Course. All within a neighborhood where neighbors who actually know one other. Homes with this depth of history and this quality of design do not return to the market often, particularly in a neighborhood as aspirational as Park Hill and at a price point this accessible. When they do, they do not stay for long.
