Property Description
A True Must-See: The Majestic Van Mater House on Denver's Prestigious 7th Avenue Historic District. Step into timeless elegance with this beautifully updated and remodeled Denver mansion—The Van Mater House—originally designed by acclaimed architects Marean and Norton, the same team behind the Colorado Governor's Mansion. This 120-year-old masterpiece blends historic charm with modern luxury. The full-length covered front porch offers a warm welcome to friends and guests alike. The impressive double oak front doors with brass fixtures lead to an expansive main floor designed for grand entertaining. The formal living and dining rooms feature stunning cherry wood built-ins, including bookshelves that pay homage to Mr. Van Mater's extensive book collection. A wet bar adds a sophisticated touch. The oversized foyer showcases an ornate staircase illuminated by a sun-filled leaded glass window, highlighting the home's exquisite craftsmanship. The eat-in kitchen is a dream, boasting top-of-the-line JennAir appliances, a hidden pantry, and plenty of space for culinary creativity. Throughout you'll find original crown molding, solid wood pocket doors, historic light fixtures, and four fireplaces. Upstairs, the second floor offers three bedrooms in addition to a luxurious primary suite with a custom walk-in closet, a spa-inspired en-suite bath with dual vanities, a jetted soaking tub, a steam shower, dazzling tile work, and a sitting room perfect for reading. A convenient laundry closet adds practicality to the space. The third floor includes three additional bedrooms, a newly renovated full bath, and a kitchenette, accessed via a back staircase—ideal for a children's retreat, in-law suite, or nanny quarters. Located just steps from some of Denver's best restaurants, shops, and cultural spots, this rare gem offers the ultimate blend of history, charm, and modern convenience.
