Modern comfort meets timeless charm in West Wash Park. Welcome to 438 S Emerson Street—a beautifully updated home tucked into one of Denver’s most beloved neighborhoods. Just a block from Wash Park, this home offers the warmth and character of the early 1900s with smart, modern upgrades throughout. The heart of the home is a stunning 2018-renovated kitchen worthy of a magazine spread, sleek finishes, and great flow for everyday living or entertaining. Rich wood details and a cozy living room with a working fireplace bring that classic Denver charm, while the newly refinished wood floors (2018), stylish bathroom refresh (2023), and abundant natural light (new windows in 2019) add to the home's easy, updated vibe. With five conforming bedrooms (one of which the sellers are using as a piano room/office), you’ll have plenty of room to spread out—whether you're working from home or hosting guests. Outside, a private backyard offers a peaceful spot to unwind or entertain. And for those thinking electric, the garage is already wired for Level 3 EV charging. You’re steps from Wash Perk for your morning ritual and just minutes to Devil’s Food Bakery, Perdida, and the S. Gaylord dining scene. Farmers markets at South Pearl and Cherry Creek are both under 10 minutes away—weekend plans made easy. This is one of those homes that needs to be seen in person. The photos won’t capture the full experience—and it just feels good when you walk through the door. Drop by our open house on opening day or contact us for a private showing.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
