540 S Forest St

This beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo offers a rare combination of space, natural light, privacy, and convenience, all just minutes from Cherry Creek’s shops, restaurants, trails, and nightlife. Tucked away in a quiet interior... courtyard setting, the home feels peaceful and removed from the city while still being incredibly central to some of Denver’s best amenities.

The flexible layout is perfect for anyone looking for extra space for a home office or guest room. The main living area features soaring vaulted ceilings and large windows that fill the home with natural light, creating an open and airy feel throughout. The unit faces a quiet, grassy courtyard instead of busy streets or parking lots, giving it a calm and private atmosphere with minimal noise. The condo spans two levels, with the main living space and primary bedroom located on the second floor of the building and the second bedroom upstairs on the third floor, offering added privacy and flexibility.

The upstairs bedroom comfortably fits a queen-sized bed and works equally well as a home office or guest room. The spacious primary bedroom easily accommodates a king-sized bed with additional furniture and includes a large walk-in closet. Both bedrooms feature generous closet space, and storage throughout the home is exceptional, including a large pantry and ample kitchen cabinetry. The open-concept living and dining area flows seamlessly to a private outdoor patio, perfect for morning coffee, dining outside, or relaxing in the evenings.

Additional highlights include:
• Water and trash included
• Attached one-car garage with extra depth for storage, bikes, or outdoor gear
• Washer and dryer included • Vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light
• Quiet interior-facing unit with courtyard views
• Updated exterior siding with fresh paint updates scheduled for the patio and stairs this summer

Community amenities include a pool (currently being resurfaced for summer), tennis courts, pickleball courts, basketball courts, and beautifully maintained grounds.

Located within walking distance is the future Four Mile District, a new $150 million, 10-acre entertainment development expected to open in late 2026 featuring an Alamo Drafthouse, restaurants, shops, live music venues, and more. This location offers easy access to Cherry Creek, Glendale, the Cherry Creek Trail system, grocery stores, restaurants, and downtown Denver while still maintaining a peaceful residential feel.

Please note: Photos include a mix of staged and lived-in images to help showcase the space’s versatility.

Available July 1st, with some flexibility possible. This has truly been a wonderful place to call home, and we’re looking for someone who will enjoy it just as much. Reach out to schedule a showing — we’d love to have you take a look!
