Tyler Traficanti dreamed of buying 4600 E. 3rd Ave. before her family purchased the brick Tudor in 2015.
“We lived around the corner and walked by it on the way to school for years,” she said.
Traficanti and her husband, Bryan, bought the house in Hilltop in 2015 for $2.6 million. Bryan Traficanti is the head of strategic operations for KSL Capital Partners, which invests in travel and leisure companies in hospitality, recreation, clubs, real estate and travel services,
The 7,500-square-foot mansion has five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and a three-car garage. It sits on a nearly half-acre lot overlooking Cranmer Park.
Denver architect Raymond Harry Ervin designed the home, which was built in 1941. Ervin also designed the Shangri-La house, Denver Club Building and George Washington High School.
The home is filled with architectural details, including a circular staircase with a wrought-iron railing, beamed ceilings, leaded windows, the original wooden pocket doors, and a library with custom built-in shelves.
Traficanti, an interior designer, said she refinished the floors, replaced the carpet and repainted the house.
“The whole house was beige,” she said. “I wanted it to look like a jewel box.”
She also redid the bathrooms and updated and expanded the kitchen by eliminating a butler’s pantry.
“For the size of the house, it never feels cavernous,” she said.
Although she worried about traffic noise when the family bought the home, the house is quiet.
“It feels like there’s a bubble around the house,” she said. “It has really thick walls. They knew how to build in 1940.”
Now that their sons attend college and graduate school, it’s time to downsize and hand the home off to the next generation. The couple listed the house for $4.8 million on Feb. 26 with Chris Bouc and Ian Wolfe with LIV Sotheby’s International Realty.
“We felt like we would be a steward and make it better than we found her, and then move her on to the next owners,” Traficanti said.
