About 3659 Alcott Street
Steeped in history and timeless elegance, the Albert Giesecke House stands as one of Potter Highlands’ most beloved architectural treasures. Built circa 1882 by noted architect A.H. Phillips, this rare Italianate-style residence is celebrated in Historic Denver guidebooks for its charm and craftsmanship. Thoughtfully updated for modern living, the home features a light-filled interior where exposed brick and original millwork blend seamlessly with refined finishes. The exceptional kitchen — outfitted with luxury Viking appliances and all-white cabinetry — flows effortlessly to the living room and a generous brick patio with a pergola, perfect for al fresco entertaining. Set on an oversized corner lot with lush gardens and ample potential for future development, this property is both a piece of Denver history and a contemporary urban retreat. Poised just moments from 32nd Avenue’s acclaimed dining and boutiques, the Giesecke House embodies heritage, beauty and enduring sophistication. Architectural plans for a 3 bed/2 bath addition with attached garage are fully approved through Landmark Preservation and available to the buyers. Please contact listing agent for more details.
