About this home
Seldom does the opportunity arise to acquire a Mid-Century Modern residence in Arapahoe Acres with such remarkable authenticity. The Swets House (1954) stands as a pristine example of Edward Hawkins' visionary design, where meticulously preserved original features blend seamlessly with thoughtful modern updates to create an atmosphere of timeless sophistication.
Rich mahogany walls, ceilings, and banisters envelop the home in warmth, while the distinctive two-tiered living arrangement offers versatile spaces for both entertaining and quiet retreat. Situated on a spacious, architect-designed landscaped lot, the property is embraced by nature, providing a private sanctuary removed from the bustle of everyday life.
Currently configured with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, the home features a primary suite on the street level complete with a generous walk-in closet. A utility room and a secondary bedroom, presently curated as a design library, complete the street level.
A terraced front yard welcomes residents and guests alike, setting the stage for the architectural experience that awaits within. Upon entry, a striking red brick staircase accented by a mahogany stairwell ascends to the garden level, where Hawkins' enduring vision comes vividly to life. The period-correct kitchen and adjacent lounge overlook the serene rear garden, highlighted by a custom outdoor shower designed by the current owner-architect.
Throughout the residence, an exceptional collection of original details speaks to an era when craftsmanship was paramount. Multiple built-ins, clerestory windows, mahogany shiplap ceiling and louvered mahogany walls showcase the home's architectural pedigree, while radiant tile flooring, a newer roof with skylights, and updated electrical panels provide modern comfort and peace of mind.
The Swets House is more than a home—it is a rare opportunity to steward an architectural legacy while enjoying the conveniences of contemporary living....
