The Cortona Brings Exquisite Single-Level Living to
Cherry Creek

DENVER – It’s a one-of-a-kind residential venue showcasing gorgeous interior appointments in a premier Cherry Creek location. The Cortona is a distinctive three-story condominium building featuring 18 elegant flats priced from $675,000 to $820,000. Buyers who act promptly will receive a free one-year membership to Pura Vida, an upscale Cherry Creek spa and fitness center. This is your chance to enjoy exquisite single-level living with a prestigious address. Listed exclusively by Devvy Altman and Kevin Garrett of The Kentwood Companies, only 11 new residences are still available, so drop by this weekend or schedule a personal tour today.

The Cortona is located at 57 Garfield Street near a wide array of charming boutiques, art galleries, and quiet cafes. Two exciting floorplans range in size from just under to slightly more than 2,000 finished square feet. First floor residences include two large terraces and most homes offer grassy and garden areas. Second and third floor units each have two balconies. Terraces and balconies include a gas valve from the kitchen plus water faucets. Each home comes with two parking spaces plus a separate storage area in the underground garage.

“The Cortona is truly a special place for those seeking a carefree lifestyle in a very desirable location,” said Devvy Altman. “All residences include two bedrooms and a study, unusually large laundry rooms with a sink and cabinetry, and abundant recessed lighting. The developers elected to create The Cortona from steel and concrete rather than wood in order to maximize sound attenuation and stability. Each flat is appointed with a remarkable array of gorgeous interior finishes for exceptional built-in value. This is a very unique homebuying opportunity by any measure.”

Living rooms at The Cortona include built-in cabinetry for audio/visual technology, plus surround sound wiring and a cozy gas log fireplace. Kitchens are distinguished by slab granite countertops with 42-inch cherry cabinets, an under-mount stainless steel sink, Thermador gas cook-top, and KitchenAid stainless steel appliances with microwave. Kitchens also include a breakfast alcove. Baths are highlighted by slab granite countertops with cherry cabinets, travertine marble floors, and Kohler plumbing fixtures. Master suites also include a fireplace and large walk-in closet.

The Cortona offers secure access, mountain and city views, and a priceless location near all the attractions of Cherry Creek. Residents can enjoy relaxing strolls along the Cherry Creek bike path, read the morning paper at several coffee shops, and enjoy fine cuisine at a variety of restaurants. Incredible shopping opportunities abound at the Cherry Creek Mall, including Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, and a new Nordstrom’s. Cherry Creek is also home to the annual Cherry Creek Arts Festival, the largest cultural event of its kind in the nation.

Four model homes are open each Saturday and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. Personal appointments are also welcomed. Watch for the Open House signs at the corner of First Avenue and Garfield Street three blocks west of Colorado Boulevard on First Avenue. Turn south at the light.
