Denver's 126-Year-Old 'Henry Lee House': Photos

DENVER, CO — The Henry Lee House, at 2653 W 32nd Ave. in Denver's Highland neighborhood, has been listed for $1.9 million. Named for Colorado politician and parks commissioner Henry Lee, the six-bedroom, six-bathroom Victorian home was built in 1894.

Lee was elected twice to the House of Representatives and twice to the state legislature.

"He was chairman of the committee on public lands and introduced a bill which provided for the sale of two sections of school land at a nominal price to the city of Denver for park purposes," read an obituary by The Denver Post in 1914.

"One of the two sections comprised what is now City Park, while the other was situated partly in Denver and partly in Edgewater, comprising what is known as Sloan’s Lake."

The historic home features a wraparound porch, herringbone oak hardwood floors, stained-glass windows and a green glass tile fireplace with a hand-carved mantelpiece. The dining room includes a set of leaded bay windows, the home's original doors and basket weave wood floors.
