TAKE ME TO CHURCH A LOOK INSIDE A SANCTUARY-TURNED-HOME IN THE HEART OF CHERRY CREEK NORTH
FANS OF JAW-DROPPING REAL ESTATE, LOOK NO FURTHER THAN COMPASS AGENT JEFF HENDLEY’S NEWEST LISTING. Located at 2401 East 5th Avenue in Cherry Creek, the property boasts a history as storied and colorful as its stained-glass windows; on the outside, it presents as a sanctuary, complete with a stained-glass rose window keeping watch over a towering arched entryway. Inside, however, is a home that is palatial in size and elegant in design. Hendley, a founding agent at Compass Denver, describes the history of the property:

OPEN HOUSE (CONTINUED)
“Originally constructed as a church and rectory in 1902, the property was redeveloped in 2008 with the idea of creating a high-end, low-maintenance community in the heart of Cherry Creek North.” The community, St. John’s Gardens, consists of nine condominium units in three structures: the six single-story units of The Flats, the two multi-story units that make up The Rectory, and, finally, the original church, which is a maintenance-frewe condominium that lives like a single-family home. Encompassing one-fourth of a city block on the corner of Josephine and 5th, the community even boasts a secure underground parking garage that offers private access to each of the nine homes. When it came to converting the sanctuary into a home, renowned architect Don Ruggles carefully maintained the architectural character and charm of the original construction while capitalizing on the cavernous beauty of the space. The result? A masterful marriage between historical architecture and modern luxury and comfort. The home’s staircase, a work of art in its own right, mirrors the original arched architecture found throughout the home.

As a way to do their part in helping shelters find animals their forever homes, Doug and Saadia Naiman, co-owners of Aviano Coffee in Cherry Creek, and Stuart Crowell and Delroy Gill of LIV Sotheby’s International Realty, are bringing together coffee and community, but with a twist: a doggy fashion show where you can enjoy drinks while watching pups with their owners strut their stuff on the catwalk. “The event is a community charity event designed to be a fun and lighthearted local pet and owner fashion show aimed at benefiting MaxFund,” says Doug Naiman. “We believe this is a cause that everyone can get behind.”

"We believe this will be a really fun and engaging way to bring out the community of Cherry Creek in a setting that everyone can appreciate," says Crowell. "After all, we all love our pets, so why not combine a chance to give back with a chance to have a fresh new community event." Supporting a no-kill shelter such as MaxFun hits close to the hearts of the Cherry Creek community as well as the staff at Aviano and Sotheby’s - a community that is already brought together by their love for specialty coffee. “This event is important to us because of our, along with our community’s love of animals,” says Saadia Naiman. “Aviano Coffee strongly supports no-kill animal shelters and animal adoption centers. As a community member serving as a community hub, we believe we’re well-positioned to influence and support a local cause with the ability to foster and encourage increased support for MaxFund, a true no-kill animal adoption center.” “In Cherry Creek, our pets are part of our community as well,” says Doug Naiman. “They are our most loved loyal companions and friends. Our staff, but especially our customers, love their pets. We’re proud of them. We want to show them off. Let’s have a little fun while at the same time raising awareness and money for less fortunate animals in need of rescue.”
