Client of Lora Martinez - W+M Agent
The owner of Brickle Bakery bought their place in 2021 with the help of West + Main agent Lora Martinez because they loved the Highlands Denver location, the large window presence, 14-foot ceilings, and the option for mixed-use space for a bakery.
In thinking about the remodel, they wanted the clean, minimal, earthy, and textured "Japandi" design that they love so much. They also wanted to add a huge solid island that could seat 10 people, ensuring enough space for rolling out dough and holding bakery classes. They also love hosting friends and family in their dreamy kitchen!
"We selected quartz countertops for durability and also wanted the kitchen to be very functional with huge rolling flour bins and a sheet pan rack that fits underneath the island," they explained. "By selecting a commercial grade fridge and freezer as well as a two door oven and induction stovetop that would fit a full size sheet pan, but not be overly deep in size so it can still fit in a residential area, it all makes sense and looks beautiful."
Once their kitchen was complete, they added plants above the cabinets. This simple touch brought a natural and welcoming vibe to the space.
A Slice of History
2951 Wyandot St. in the Highlands area of Denver was built in 1889 by Tallmadge and Boyer. Originally a horse and carriage turnaround point, it has served as a second hand dry goods store, carpenter shop, furniture shop, bakery, and more. It sat vacant from 1970 to 2001 and has since been used as a half residential, half commercial space, currently housing the bakery and living quarters. The original brick, stone, and stained glass windows still remain, making it one of Denver's oldest buildings and a hub for entrepreneurs since the 1800s!
