Does your house pass the test for homeschool­ing?

-

Denver, Colo., August 9, 2020 – It’s officially back-to-school season - even though many students won’t be sitting in classrooms again until later this fall. Due to the pandemic, many parents and school officials have decided to keep kids at home to protect their health and safety. While some students may be excited about studying chemistry from their couches or trading in their uniforms for pajamas, parents are wondering what homeschool­ing and remote learning will look like at home.

In an attempt to normalize their children’s day-to-day activities during these unusual times, many parents are creating at-home workspaces for their children to mimic a classroom environmen­t. For that reason, homes with offices and studies are becoming more important in the eyes of consumers.

LIV Sotheby’s Internatio­nal Realty (LIV SIR) represents a variety of listings in the Denver Metro area that are ideal for families trying to tackle homeschool­ing and remote learning this fall. We’ve done the homework on which features students will benefit from this semester.

In Lakewood, 12432 West 16th Drive, listed by LIV SIR brokers, Debbie Zucker Anderson and Carly Olsen, is not only set on a large lot at the end of a cul-de-sac with amazing mountain views, but also has a large office/library that could serve as an at-home classroom. The space is large enough that both parents and students could share the workspace comfortabl­y. This home also features an additional living space downstairs that has an office, bedroom, bathroom, and laundry area which could be converted into a kitchen. This portion of the house would be perfect for multigener­ational living or a college student looking for more independen­ce while living at home.

While having a place dedicated to learning is very important, any student will tell you that the best part of the school day is when they get to let off some steam. Enjoy recess in the backyard of LIV SIR broker, Nancy Levine’s, stunning listing at 950 South Steele Street in Denver. This contempora­ry home has a beautiful wall of sliding glass doors that open to seamlessly blend the indoor and outdoor living spaces. The home’s backyard and swimming pool are ideal for an afternoon study break. When it’s time to hit the books again, the secondary living spaces on the second floor make a great workspace for students or an open and airy home office for parents.

This school year will test new approaches to remote learning. Find a home that will set you and your loved ones up for success.
