Artful West Highland Home, Walk to Sloan's Lake

Summary:
Base yourself on a quiet West Highland street, a short walk to Sloan's Lake and Highlands Square coffee and dinner, in a 1942 brick home with an artist's touch. A geometric owl mural greets you out front; inside, a hand-painted Colorado scene of mountains, the Denver skyline, and a low-poly bear anchors the living room. Three bedrooms plus an upstairs sofa bed sleep six, with a full kitchen, in-unit laundry, a dedicated workspace, and fast 181 Mbps wifi. About 10 minutes to downtown.

The Space:
Base yourself in West Highland, one of Denver's most walkable neighborhoods, in a whole 1942 brick home with real character and room for six. A geometric owl mural on the brick front wall marks the door, a small sign that this is not a cookie-cutter rental. It feels calmer than a hotel and more local than downtown.

Main Level
The upstairs is the heart of the home: oak floors, an arched doorway, and a bright living room anchored by a hand-painted Colorado mural: the Front Range mountains, the Denver skyline, a setting sun, and a low-poly bear that nods to the city's beloved Big Blue Bear. There is comfortable seating, a smart TV, and a pull-out sofa for a fifth and sixth guest. The dining table seats six, right off a full kitchen with a dishwasher, a double oven, and everything you need to cook. Two queen bedrooms and the home's full bathroom are on this level.

Garden Level
Downstairs is a second living area with a sofa and a TV, a good spot to work or unwind, plus a third bedroom. In-unit laundry makes a longer stay easy.

The Neighborhood
You can walk to Sloan's Lake for a morning loop, to Highlands Square for coffee and dinner, and toward Tennyson Street for shops and galleries. Downtown Denver is about 10 minutes by car, Ball Arena and Empower Field are close, and I-70 west puts the mountains within reach for a day trip.

A few honest notes so there are no surprises. This is a characterful older home, not a new build. It has one bathroom, so with a full house plan a light morning rotation. Cooling is by portable AC units and fans (there is no central air), which keep the main spaces comfortable and can run warmer upstairs on the hottest summer days. Parking is free on the street out front; there is no driveway or garage. The home has an up and down layout with stairs. There are exterior security cameras at the front door for arrival and safety; there are none inside.

We would be glad to host you. Come make West Highland your Denver home for a few days.

Guest Access:
The entire private home is yours: both levels, all three bedrooms, the full bathroom, the upstairs living room, the downstairs living area, the kitchen and dining space, the workspace, the laundry, and the fenced backyard patio. Park for free on the street out front (there is no driveway or garage) and let yourself in with your own smart-lock code whenever you arrive.

The Neighborhood:
You are in West Highland, a quiet, tree-lined, residential pocket of northwest Denver that guests fall for. The neighborhood is the amenity here.

Within an easy walk: Sloan's Lake and its loop for a morning stroll, and Highlands Square around 32nd and Lowell for coffee, breakfast, dinner, breweries, and shops. Tennyson Street's arts district, with galleries and more dining, is a little farther on foot. Well-loved spots nearby include Blue Pan Pizza, Sassafras American Eatery, and local coffee and bagel shops.

For the wider city, downtown Denver and Union Station are about 10 minutes by car, with Ball Arena and Empower Field close by for a game or a show. When you want the mountains, I-70 heads west for a day trip to the foothills and beyond. Exact walk and drive times are in your arrival guide.

Getting Around:
The neighborhood is very walkable: Sloan's Lake, Highlands Square, and the 32nd Avenue and Tennyson Street shops and restaurants are all an easy stroll. Rideshare is quick around northwest Denver, and downtown is about a 10-minute drive.

A car is useful if you plan to range across the city or head to the mountains, and there is easy free street parking directly in front of the home (no driveway or garage). Please check the posted street-sweeping signs so you are not surprised on cleaning days. I-70 west is the route to the foothills and ski country for a day trip.

Other Things to Note:
A few details so everything is clear from the start:

- One bathroom serves the home. With a full house of six, mornings go smoother with a little rotation.
- Cooling is by portable AC units plus fans; there is no central air. The main living spaces stay comfortable, and the upstairs bedrooms can run warm on the hottest summer days, so the fans help.
- Heating is central for the cooler months.
- Parking is free on the street directly out front. There is no driveway or garage.
- This is a historic 1942 home with an up and down layout and stairs between the levels.
- There are exterior security cameras at the front door for arrival and package safety. There are no cameras inside the home.
- The sofa upstairs is a pull-out sofa bed, which is how the home comfortably reaches six.
- A car is handy for exploring greater Denver and the mountains, though the neighborhood itself is very walkable.
