13230 Garfield Dr
Thornton, CO
Welcome home to one of Cottonwood Lake's most inviting properties, where an extraordinary 11,760 sq. ft. lot, mature shade trees and decades of meticulous care create a setting that's increasingly difficult to find. Lovingly maintained by the same owner for more than 48 years, this move-in ready home offers the perfect balance of comfort, privacy and opportunity.
Inside, the entire interior—including the walls and ceilings—has been professionally painted, creating a bright, fresh feel throughout. Hardwood floors flow through the main living spaces, while the spacious family room invites gatherings around the classic wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen features beautiful hickory cabinetry, abundant workspace, a center island and sunny eating area that overlooks the backyard.
Upstairs, the generous primary retreat offers a beautifully updated private 3/4 bath with a floor-to-ceiling tiled walk-in shower and an impressive walk-in closet with custom organizers. Replacement windows throughout the home enhance comfort and energy efficiency, while owned solar adds long-term value.
Step outside and discover what truly sets this property apart. The beautifully landscaped backyard feels like your own private park, surrounded by mature trees with plenty of room to relax, entertain, garden or simply enjoy Colorado's seasons. An expansive deck, full sprinkler system, covered front porch and storage shed complete the outdoor living experience.
The unfinished basement provides excellent storage today and exciting possibilities for future expansion tomorrow. Ideally located on a quiet street near neighborhood parks, scenic walking trails, shopping and the neighborhood elementary school, with the Eastlake N Line commuter rail station approximately 2.3 miles away for convenient access to downtown Denver.
Homes with this combination of lot size, mature landscaping, thoughtful updates and exceptional pride of ownership rarely become available.
