Property Description
Cute houses are easy to find. Homes with soul are a little harder. Welcome to 545 Ingalls, a 1940s Lakewood cottage that is cozy, charming, a little unexpected and full of personality. The blue front door sets the tone, and inside, warm wood floors, arched windows, a stone fireplace and fresh paint make this home feel happy from the second you walk in. The updated kitchen brings a fresh, bright feel with white cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, while a main floor bedroom adds flexibility to the way the home lives. And then there is the sunroom. Ohhhh, the sunroom. Not included in the home’s square footage, this incredible bonus space is wrapped in windows and absolutely drenched in afternoon sunshine. Morning coffee, plants everywhere, a cozy chair and a book, working from home, dinner with friends...this is the room you are going to LIVE in. Open the door and let life spill right into the backyard. And what a backyard it is. Nearly a quarter acre gives you room for dogs to run their hearts out, gardens to grow, string lights, a fire pit, summer dinners and all the backyard dreams you have been saving. Downstairs, the finished basement adds two more bedrooms, a bathroom and additional living space, giving you room for guests, movie nights, hobbies, an office or whatever life needs next. The Lakewood location makes getting around ridiculously easy. With quick access to 6th Avenue, head east into Denver or point the car west and be on your way to the mountains. 545 Ingalls is fresh, updated, ridiculously cute and full of heart. It is not trying to be anything other than what it is, and that might be exactly why it is so easy to love.
