Argyll Flats

3299 Lowell Blvd.

Denver CO 80211

Do you love the idea of being able to walk to great restaurants and shopping? But hate the idea of your friends having32nd and Lowell to pay for a parking space when they come visit you? Then you need to check out the Argyll Flats building in the Highlands neighborhood! Argyll Flats is located at Lowell Blvd. and 33rd and is just 1 block from many great restaurants and boutique shopping at Highlands Square! One of my favorites in Mead Street Station which is a great little pub with great food and live music 6 days a week. And they have some great bands playing there and it’s always a fun atmosphere. I also recommend Sushi Hai for some great sushi! If you’re in the mood for a little shopping, check out the Perfect Petal for really unique items for your home, garden or your bathtub! It’s usually the place I go when looking for a unique gift for a friend.

LivingRmSo that I’ve told you a few great things about the neighborhood, let me tell you about the Argyll Flats, which is a very easy walk to all of the great restaurants and shops! The condos are all unique and beautifully constructed with open floorplans, hardwood floors and lots of light! The kitchens have granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances and most of the condos have at least 1 balcony. There is also a parking garage and plenty of storage too! It’s not a large building so if you see one of these for sale, you definitely need to check it out!

If this sounds interesting, check out the condos that are currently for sale at the Argyll Flats.

A unique infusion of city-close living with added elements that are difficult to come by when living in a loft. Bag Factory is a converted warehouse that adopted it’s name from the original building use, manufacturing burlap bags. Starting in 2003 the first phase of these lofts were the ground-level homes that feature extra-tall ceilings and balcony-level, master suites.  After the first phase was complete the second and third levels were then finished in the second phase completely this interest residential loft building just north of Coors Field.

These twenty-five lofts range from 600 square feet to over 3,000 square feet, featuring 1/2/3-bedroom lofts.  The west-side of The Bag Factory boarders the Rockies overflow parking lot and is used during the baseball season.  Mostly it serves as a buffer between the rail tracks to the west, all while keeping the way clear to a majestic view of the Front Range. 

Urban GardensBag Factory Lofts have decks and patios facing various directions allowing residents to enjoy city views and mountain landscapes.   A few of the lofts have two or even three patios as part of individual ownership.  Resident are welcome to use the space to simply entertain, grow urban gardens or whatever one pleases to do.

The area has come alive with many live music & entertainment venues, restaurants and taverns.  Places such as The Walnut Room, Casselman’s and Blake Street Tavern are the retail pioneers of the neighborhood.  As much of the industrial landscape begins to transform the area becomes a great option for city dwellers that want outdoor space and proximity to downtown.
