        "text": "Older mid-century ranches in neighborhoods like Littleton and Englewood often feature closed-off, galley-style footprints with lower 8-foot ceilings, whereas newer builds in Parker or Centennial typically have taller ceilings and open great-room designs. Updating a mid-century layout often requires removing central partition walls, leveling dropped soffits, and upgrading electrical panels to handle modern appliance loads.
