12009 E Virginia Place

This four-bedroom, two-bath brick tri-level at 12009 E Virginia Place sits on a quiet street in Aurora Hills (Aurora, CO 80012) -- 1,990 square feet built for real, easy living. Pull into the oversized two-car garage, step through the back door, and climb a short staircase straight up into the kitchen -- groceries in hand, no trip through the weather.

The great room greets you first, and it's the home's best feature -- vaulted ceilings pull the eye up and the light in, making the entry level feel bigger and brighter than its footprint lets on. Upstairs, the kitchen and dining area lead to two bedrooms and a full bath. Downstairs, a family room built around a brick fireplace anchors two more bedrooms, a three-quarter bath, and the laundry -- a layout that gives everyone their own corner without losing the togetherness. Central air and forced-air heat keep things comfortable year-round.

Out back, a deck and covered patio look over a fully fenced yard shaded by mature trees, with a storage shed for the extra gear. Cherry Creek Schools (Highline Community, Prairie, Overland) serve the address, and this is the kind of block where neighbors still wave from the driveway. I-225 is right off Alameda when you need Anschutz Medical Campus, Buckley Space Force Base, or downtown Denver.
