For Gina Lorenzen and Kara Couzens, brokers with Kentwood Real Estate, the combination of elegance, modernity and everyday comfort is the hallmark of luxury living in the greater Denver area. These are qualities that blend harmoniously—and spectacularly—in one particular Greenwood Village property.

“This home is a modern classic and is exceptional in every way,” says Gina. “The residence was recently renovated to the highest standard, and it was meticulously appointed with attention to every detail.”

Perched on two and a half private acres on a tranquil street in one of Denver’s most desirable neighborhoods, 3400 East Willamette Lane is a crown jewel—a stately example of timeless architecture, elegant interiors and versatile spaces. Spanning 12,000 square feet of finished space, this five-bedroom, seven-bathroom home is simultaneously ideal for large-scale entertaining, intimate gatherings and effortless day-to-day living.

“So many possibilities combine beautifully in this home,” says Kara. “From its expansive living areas to its elegant, comfortable private accommodations, it offers a little bit of everything.”

The home’s inviting brick exterior beckons guests into a voluminous foyer and center hall. This leads to the dramatic main living room—a two-story space with exquisite crown molding, a marble surround fireplace and a wall of pristine windows overlooking the backyard. The room’s crisp, yet warm palette is illuminated by abundant sunlight, a trait that permeates throughout the residence.

“This home lives harmoniously with the gorgeous outdoors,” says Gina. “It features numerous sets of French doors that lead to multiple patios and easy access to the pool, spa, pavilion and fire pit. Not to mention the spectacular mountain views.”

Each room in the home is distinguished by unique and special features—from wood floors to encased doorways, custom built-ins, exquisite materials and more—that both amplify the individual spaces’ characters and sync with the home’s overall feel. The highly customized kitchen is a culinary connoisseur’s dream with two islands complete with Bianca Superiore quartzite slab countertops and accented by a beamed ceiling. The kitchen orients ideally with all its adjacent spaces, including the casual breakfast room, family room, elegant butler’s pantry and formal dining room with its striking painted ceiling, mural accent wall, grasscloth wallpaper and marble fireplace. 

Meanwhile, the main floor likewise boasts two studies each with their own distinct feel. While one is enveloped in warm, luscious dark wood paneling, the other includes pristine white painted built-ins and French doors leading to the back patio. An additional cozy library features custom floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and a crisscross-beamed ceiling. This space leads to the expansive main floor primary suite warmed by Stark wool carpeting and a private sitting area with a fireplace. The primary suite bathroom is populated with a stunning five-piece bath set with Calacatta Borghini marble, a steam shower, a standalone tub and heated flooring.

When it comes to recreation, the home provides ample opportunity for play and entertainment. This includes a sprawling 1,550 square foot main level flex space that can be used as a gym, playroom or six-car garage in addition to the three-car garage. The home is also desirably situated with nearby access to the High Line Canal Trail and close proximity to the Denver Tech Center, Cherry Creek and Downtown Denver.

In all, this stellar property is one that a host of buyers can find their ideal home in.

“This home truly has the highest level of finishes,” says Kara. “It is one of the finest properties in Greenwood Village.”
