Decatur St Custom Home Build in Denver, CO

4940 Decatur Street, Denver, CO 80221

  • Custom Home Building

A new custom home in Denver, built on the site of a smaller house, with white siding, light stone, warm timber and a sage green kitchen.

The Whole House

A new 2,600 square foot custom home, built from the ground up

On this Denver lot we took down the original 1,000 square foot house and built a new 2,600 square foot custom home in its place. This is a new build from the ground up, so the porch, the windows, the kitchen and the patio were planned as one house.

A few things repeat all the way through: white siding and black window frames outside, warm wood in the beams, floors and vanities, brass fixtures, and a sage green that shows up in the kitchen and the second bathroom.

Chapter 1 · The Exterior

Custom home exterior: white siding, light stone and a timber-post porch

From the street, the home reads as two stories of white board-and-batten siding with a band of light stone, black-framed windows and a dark metal roof. A covered front porch with timber posts and a stained wood ceiling runs across the front.

Wide concrete steppers lead across the lawn to the front door, and a porch swing hangs at the left end of the porch.

Chapter 2 · Entry & Mudroom

Entry and mudroom: a wood door and a slatted bench

Inside, the front door is a wood slab with tall frosted glass panels, set beside a paneled interior door.

The mudroom has white cabinets to the ceiling, a slatted wood backing with hooks, a built-in bench with cubbies below and a dark tile floor.

Chapter 3 · The Kitchen

Kitchen: sage green cabinets and a waterfall island

The kitchen is the color anchor of the house: sage green cabinets with brass pulls, a long island with a waterfall edge and a full-height white stone-look backsplash behind the range.

Three black and brass pendants hang over the island, black fixtures echo the black window frames, and a breakfast nook with a wood table and built-in bench sits under a row of windows.

Chapter 4 · The Dining Room

Dining room: a long wood table in a bright corner

The dining room sits in a bright corner with black-framed windows on two sides and soft linen drapes.

A brass linear chandelier hangs over a long wood table, with white walls and wood floors that match the rest of the main level.

Chapter 5 · The Living Room

Living room: a dark stone fireplace under wood beams

The living room is built around a dark stone-look fireplace wall with a wall-mounted TV, flanked by floating wood shelves on both sides.

Exposed wood beams cross the ceiling, black sliding doors open to the patio, and a wet bar in the corner has white cabinets, black counters, a beverage fridge and glass shelves.

Chapter 6 · The Primary Suite

Primary suite: a vaulted bedroom and a navy tile bath

The primary bedroom has a vaulted ceiling, black ceiling fan, black-framed windows and a sliding barn-style door to the bath.

In the bath, tall navy tile rises behind a freestanding tub with a brass floor-mounted faucet, a wood-tone vanity with a white top, and a walk-in glass shower with a wood slat wall and brass fixtures.

Chapter 7 · The Second Bath

Second bathroom: pale green tile and a vessel sink

A second bathroom switches to pale green vertical tile in the shower, a white hex tile shower floor and a frosted window.

A wood vanity with brass pulls, a wall-mounted brass faucet, a rectangular vessel sink and a woven pendant light round it out.

Chapter 8 · The Backyard

Covered patio with an outdoor kitchen

At the back, a covered patio with exposed timber rafters runs along the white siding of the house, with a built-in outdoor kitchen faced in light stone.

Black sliding doors open from the kitchen straight onto the concrete patio, and a lawn with a raised planter box runs along the side of the house.
