2970 Forest Street is an unprecedented Park Hill residence borne from a convergence of craftsmanship, authenticity and artistry. In 2014, a founding partner of award-winning local homebuilder Level Ground Enterprise partnered with local architect Bill McDonald to masterfully reimagine an unassuming 1949-built brick bungalow into its current iteration: a rich tapestry of mid-century modern architecture infused with Scandinavian influences.
Situated on an exceptionally-large .18 acre lot, the home’s refined exterior aesthetic stems from a harmonious patina of corten steel, cedar shingles and original brick masonry. The striking main level living room is the defining element of the front elevation, where a spellbinding mix of indoor/outdoor wood details, angled windows and a mid-century-inspired roofline are known to stop passers-by in their tracks. While the residence appears stunning from the street, luxurious artisan details can be found at every turn within the interior of the versatile and functional floor plan. The primary suite encompasses the entire top level of the residence, offering both privacy and natural light via numerous clerestory windows. On the main level, the custom kitchen is flanked by the dining room and covered rear terrace, which features a built-in grill, smoker and pizza oven, creating the perfect space for seamless indoor and al fresco entertaining.
Even the smallest of details have received special care and attention: the hand made pivot-hinge front door and custom slatted staircase were crafted using salvaged wood from within the original bungalow, and an array of custom built-ins can be found throughout the home.
At the rear of the residence, an oversized two-car garage offers sizable storage, while a sliding barn door connects the interior of the garage to the back yard.
Truly remarkable custom residences in central Denver are few and far between, don’t miss out on your opportunity to make this spectacular property your home!
