855 S Yates ST Denver, CO 80219

Set on just under half an acre in Denver, this property offers something that's increasingly hard to find—space, function, and the ability to live differently, without giving up proximity to the city. Tucked into a location with easy access to Belmar, Highway 6, and major commuting routes, you're connected when you need it—yet the moment you step into the backyard, it feels like you've left the city behind. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath ranch delivers true single-level living with an open layout that brings together a spacious family room, dining area, and kitchen. Real hardwood floors add warmth throughout the main living space, while large and newer vinyl windows bring in consistent natural light. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and soft-close drawers, creating a clean, functional space that works for both everyday living and hosting. What sets this home apart is the land and what it allows you to do with it. The fully fenced lot includes a garden, greenhouse, chicken coop and run, fruit trees (apple, plum, choke cherry), strawberry patch, raspberry plants, comfrey, rhubarb, and perennial herbs—already established and ready to support a true urban homestead or hobby farm lifestyle. A covered patio with sun shades creates a natural extension of the living space, designed for gathering, relaxing, and enjoying the setting.
Inside, flexibility continues with a mudroom off the garage that can double as a home office or additional storage, a laundry area with added shower functionality, and built-in storage throughout the home. System updates—including a newer furnace (2019), newer water heater, whole house fan, and updated windows—provide confidence in the home's ongoing performance.
This is a property for someone who sees the opportunity—space to grow, room to create, & a lifestyle that's hard to replicate anywhere else in Denver. This home's unique story: https://youtu.be/RCy2o13dYGg
