A Seamless Blend of Style and Comfort

Each Dakota8 unit has been thoughtfully updated to meet the needs of today's urban dweller. The moment you step inside, you're greeted by an open floor plan that creates a bright, inviting space perfect for both daily living and entertaining. Large glass doors flood the main level with natural light and lead to a private backyard, offering a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience.

"A lot of thought went into making these homes truly move-in ready," says Allison Rankin of Compass Denver. "Whether you're a first-time homebuyer or someone looking for a great place to live in Denver, Dakota8 offers a turnkey solution that combines modern style, comfort, and convenience."

The attention to detail is evident throughout each townhome. Upstairs, you'll find two spacious bedrooms, providing ample room for rest and relaxation or conversion to a work-from-home space along with a full bathroom. The added convenience of an in-unit laundry room along with a private garage and backyard provides space and convenience for daily living.

The Best of Belmar Living

One of Dakota8's most compelling features is its prime location in the Belmar neighborhood. This vibrant area has become a destination in its own right, offering a lively mix of shopping, dining, and entertainment options just minutes from your front door. The variety offers something for everyone.

Imagine starting your day with a stroll to a nearby café for your morning coffee, followed by some retail therapy at the diverse array of shops in the area. From large retailers to unique boutiques, Belmar has something for every taste and budget. As evening approaches, you can choose from a variety of trendy restaurants for dinner, or pick up groceries to whip up a meal in your modern kitchen or head out for dessert or nightlife. The nearby Heritage Lakewood Belmar Park provides a beautiful backdrop to family playtime, recreation, dog walks or more with 132 rolling acres of grasslands, trees, paved trails, playgrounds, Kountze Lake and more. Whether you're looking for a quiet spot to read a book, a place to jog, or a grassy area for a picnic, you'll find it just a short distance from your new home.

The Belmar district is a true community hub. Throughout the year, residents can enjoy seasonal events that bring neighbors together. Outdoor concerts provide the soundtrack to warm summer evenings, while the holiday season is marked by festive ice skating. These community gatherings foster a sense of belonging that's increasingly rare in urban settings.

With easy access to public transportation and major highways, you can easily reach downtown Denver or other surrounding areas. This connectivity ensures that while you're enjoying the comfort of your Belmar home, the entire Denver metro area remains within reach.

Move In with Confidence

One of the most appealing aspects of Dakota8 is that these townhomes are move-in ready, with recent floor-to-ceiling upgrades throughout so that you can move in to your new home with the peace of mind. This move-in ready status is particularly appealing for first-time homebuyers who may be intimidated by the prospect of renovations, or for those relocating to the Denver area who want to hit the ground running in their new city.

The homes each boast an array of modern enhancements inside and out. New paint, roofs, gutters, and landscaping highlight exterior renovations while the interiors have been completely revamped. Big ticket items such as new windows, HVAC systems, plumbing, hot water tanks, flooring, doors and appliances have been installed in each unit while finishes include new cabinets, light fixtures and paint help finish off the upgrades.
