Jeffco Crew #042 - Candy, Costumes & Startups
You'll be shocked to find out that nearly everyone in the Front Range is throwing a Halloween party this week.
If you don't like Halloween, I don't have a ton for you.
Maybe hibernate until next week?
For the rest of you, if you leave your house you'll be minutes away from some sort of celebration.
Have so much fun, be safe, and be good to one another.
One thing I'll note alongside the candy holiday is that it's also a good time to be considering donations to your local food banks. They're being hit hard right now across the board - here is a list from the Jeffco site for ideas on where to donate.
Okay let's get into it!
🏡 Looky Loo
That thing every other week where I poke around our local real estate market to highlight fun finds - great deals, astronomical mansions or killer mountain cabins.
This is a fun one - a wooden atrium entrance always gets my attention.
This is a 4BD, 3BA Ken-Caryl Ranch listing at $1,7m that definitely stands out compared to the neighbors.
The entrance area is super cool...
It seems to be an all-season patio thing going on.
The inside is all kinds of vibes as well.
