16535 W 79th Drive

Perched atop a serene hill in one of Arvada’s most coveted hidden pockets, 16535 W 79th Drive is a truly rare offering. This horse-friendly property spans 2.168 acres w/ direct access to open space & uninterrupted views as far as the eye can see. Properties like this are nearly impossible to find: set high above the city, w/ no rear neighbors, incredible privacy, & a natural setting that feels like a world apart, yet still just minutes from parks, scenic trails, top-rated schools, shopping, dining, & major commuter routes. The existing home is a warm & inviting ranch-style retreat, thoughtfully redesigned for comfort & everyday living. Vaulted ceilings, large sun-filled windows, & an open-concept floor plan create an easy flow between the living room, kitchen, & dining areas. The kitchen is equipped w/ high-end appliances & plenty of counter space. The primary suite is spacious & calming, offering a private escape at the end of the day, & the additional bedroom & living areas make the home functional for families, guests, or even multi-generational living. The elevated lot opens up a world of possibility. Whether you choose to enjoy the home as-is, expand w/ a pop-top addition, or pursue a full custom rebuild, the future here is limitless. A two-story structure would unlock jaw-dropping 360-degree views—from the sweeping Front Range to the glittering lights of downtown Denver, & everything in between. There’s space for horses, a barn, gardens, outdoor entertaining areas, or even your own hiking & riding trails. The property backs to protected open space, giving it a sense of freedom & solitude that’s becoming increasingly rare in the Denver metro area. And because it's tucked away on a quiet, dead-end street, the atmosphere is calm & unhurried—an ideal setting for those who value both community connection & the retreat of nature. Properties w/ this combination of land, location, privacy, & long-term potential are nearly impossible to replicate.
