Property Description
Here's your opportunity to own a single-family home in Arvada, build equity, & make it your own. At 8469 Ames St, you're getting the benefits of a ranch-style layout w/ a basement, 3 bd, 2 bath, a detached garage, & a spacious lot, all in an established neighborhood w/ convenient access to DNVR, Boulder, Arvada, & Westminster. Instead of paying a premium for someone else's renovation choices, you can update this home at your own pace & create the spaces & finishes that work for you. The ranch-style layout provides convenient main-level living, while the basement gives you additional space & flexibility for storage, recreation, a home office, w/out area, hobbies, or future improvements. 3 bedrooms provide even more options for family, guests, or work-from-home space. The detached garage gives you additional room for parking, storage, bikes, outdoor gear, tools, or weekend projects. Step outside & you'll have a generous yard w/ room to entertain, garden, play, relax, or create the outdoor living space you've been wanting. You'll also enjoy a location that keeps everyday conveniences close, including shopping, dining, parks, recreation, schools, & major commuter routes. Head into Olde Town Arvada, commute toward DNVR or Boulder, or explore everything the northwest metro has to offer without giving up the space & privacy of a single-family home. If you've been waiting for a home where you can put in some work, personalize it to your taste, & potentially create value along the way, this is one to see. Investors & renovation-minded buyers will also recognize the possibilities offered by the combination of the basement, spacious lot, detached garage, ranch floor plan, & Arvada location. Property is sold AS-IS. Seller will not make repairs, replacements, or improvements. Buyer is encouraged to complete all inspections & due diligence & verify information important to their purchase. Bring your ideas, make it yours, & take advantage of the opportunity at 8469 Ames Street.
