Introducing 440 Monroe Street, a rare and remarkable residence in Denver’s cherished Cherry Creek North. Designed by renowned architect David Tryba, this singular home is a true work of art, blending warmth, light, and nuanced design at every turn, nestled on a coveted full double lot. The focus on form, natural building materials, and international influence, embraces both elegance and livability. Expansive 2-story walls of glass wrap two sides of the property, seamlessly integrating serene outdoor living spaces into the heart of the design. The upper level hosts a private primary retreat with 5-piece bath, dual closets, sitting room, skylights, gas fireplace, and a balcony overlooking the grounds. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete this level, accessible by elevator or by two staircases, one at the entry, and one in the light-filled tower off the kitchen. The chef’s kitchen opens to the patio and yard, with both casual and full formal dining spaces, perfect for intimate gatherings and full-scale entertaining. Two living/family rooms at the front of the home provide spaces both cozy and expansive. The two additional bedrooms and bath in the south wing were used as home offices, but designed to easily convert to a main floor primary suite, in-law quarters, or any preferred use. The outdoor oasis offers a flagstone patio, grassy yard, heated 50’ lap pool, pool house with shower and bath, and a large covered patio. An oversized 3-car attached garage and unfinished basement provide additional flexibility for customizing. This prime block is one of only a few true double 12,500 SF lots in all of Cherry Creek North, close to everything alluring but away from the fray. Welcome home to gorgeous design, streaming light, and brilliantly thoughtful spaces.
