Description
Welcome to the William E. Fisher House, this historic home was designed in 1910 by noted Fisher and Fisher Architects for William Fisher himself. The estate was created in "the Spanish style", which the brothers considered appropriate for Denver's climate, with 4 floors of living space on an oversized 13,200 SF south-facing lot. The grounds have been meticulously landscaped and the large mature trees provide the upmost privacy for enjoying the pool, hot tub, two outdoor fireplaces and spacious covered patio. A significant renovation was done in 2008 to enhance flow, function and accessibility of the home, including the installation of a commercial grade elevator to all floors. The paneled entry hall and elegant foyer serve as the circulation space to all rooms on the first level. The study with its barrel vaulted ceiling and plaster beams has French doors leading to the gardens. The extraordinary living room features more signature plaster beams and a beautifully ornate ceiling typical to Fisher's design. An oversized fireplace anchors the space and its dining area is perfect for extended families or intimate parties. French doors lead to a covered patio with views of the front yard and the stately neighboring homes on Franklin Street. The kitchen is traditional in style with creamy white cabinets and granite counters and includes everything a cook could want. It opens to the family room. A double-sided fireplace divides the family room from the charming breakfast nook with built-in banquette and 2nd refrigerator and bar area, very cozy for morning coffee. A mudroom connects the home to the attached oversized 2 car garage with surprise attic storage that holds endless potential for an artist studio, home office or the like. A third car garage is detached from the home and is plenty big for an extra car or bikes and gear. Few architectural firms have impacted Denver homes as much as Fisher and Fisher, come take a look at this noteworthy property.
