Listing details for 8244 Iowa Ave, Lakewood, CO 80232 : Every once in a while a home comes along that has it all- this is that. Great location, beautiful updating, and a backyard that will blow you away, this house is truly special and there is no doubt anyone who tours it will agree. There's a park with a playground and small lake just blocks up the street, a preschool and elementary school just a stone-throw away, the Belmar shopping district is close by with incredible options for dining and entertainment, and it's easy to get downtown and to the mountains with quick access to 6th Avenue and 285.

As is- the primary bedroom enjoys double the space! The basement is fully finished with a large living or recreation room, and the dedicated laundry room boasts ample storage and shelving.

For those who REALLY want the farm-to-table experience, this home has a backyard-chicken setup that is oh-so-perfect, and yes, you can see the chickens in action when you stop by for your private (or open house) viewing. Chickens are not included- but getting your own is easy and fun! HVAC and central air are only six years old, there's a whole-house-air-filtration system that is still under warranty, and a brand new radon mitigation system that was installed in 2025.This isn't just a home- it's peace of mind and the lifestyle you have been dreaming about. Do not miss your chance to visit- this one simply won't last.
