Own a piece of architectural history reimagined for modern living. Designed by renowned mid-century architect Bruce Sutherland, a student of Frank Lloyd Wright, this iconic 1959 masterpiece was flawlessly updated in 2017. The extensive renovation honors the home's modern design while incorporating every luxury expected today.
Boasting 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and 2,497 square feet, this home exudes mid-century charm with striking floor-to-ceiling windows, clerestory accents, and an original rock wall fireplace that extends seamlessly to the exterior. The screened breezeway and architectural block wall create a harmonious flow between the yard and entryway, ensuring privacy while making a bold design statement.
The expansive 9,000 SF lot invites outdoor living, a side yard patio, tiered retaining wall ready for lush landscaping and a smart Hunter irrigation system serving the front and back yards. A large 2-car garage offers room for storage, bikes, and gear with modern light filled doors. The chef's kitchen stuns with a 48" Thermador range, Bosch refrigeration and dishwasher, and custom cabinetry by Crystal; all finished with Porcelanosa tile and thoughtful modern touches like a custom coat closet and pantry system, sleek stair railing, and whole house sound system. Updated mechanical systems also offer convenience and peace of mind for buyers.
Located in the coveted Southern Hills neighborhood of Denver, this home is just steps from the Slavens K-8 School. Known for its exceptional academic programs and walkable accessibility, this top-performing school is a big draw for buyers looking for a top rate school. The nearby Wellshire Golf Course and easy access to Cherry Creek Shopping Center and restaurants make Southern Hills a fantastic neighborhood to call home. 3069 S. Detroit Way is a design masterpiece with timeless appeal and contemporary comforts. Start your next chapter today. Contact Jeff at Iron Works Realty to make an offer on this incredible home.
