About 101 S Humboldt Street
A rare fusion of mid-century modernism & contemporary luxury, the Grant Residence at 101 S. Humboldt is one of Denver’s most significant architectural landmarks. Originally designed by visionary architect Thomas Edgar Moore, this home underwent a meticulous $5 million restoration in 2019 that preserves its historic legacy while integrating modern amenities. Perched on a 0.43-acre lot above the Denver Country Club, the residence invites you through a striking Alaskan Yellow Cedar-clad pivot door into an expansive atrium, blending architecture with nature. Radiant-heat walnut floors flow throughout, enhancing warmth and connection to the outdoors. The west wing features the formal dining area, elevated library, & living room, where Moore’s original curtain wall was carefully rebuilt with thermally upgraded glass & wood. This creates panoramic views of the Denver Country Club, downtown skyline—an ever-changing, breathtaking backdrop that bathes the home in natural light. Three of the home’s five luxurious bedrooms are in this wing, each offering privacy and stunning vistas. The iconic twin T precast concrete roof adds structural integrity & bold design, embodying Moore's visionary genius. The east wing houses a chef’s kitchen with dual Cambria quartz islands, custom EKD cabinetry, and top-of-the-line appliances. The adjoining family room, with a wood-burning fireplace & original copper-clad hood, opens to the backyard through floor-to-ceiling NanaWall doors. The grounds create a serene sanctuary with views of the golf course & skyline. The walk-out lower level is designed for entertaining, with two beds, two baths, a lounge with built-in risers, & a fitness retreat with a fireplace & original hearth. A climate-controlled wine gallery, snack kitchen, & extensive storage complete this level. Fully enclosed by secure gates & site walls, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Denver’s architectural history—reimagined with unmatched craftsmanship.
