About this home

Inside, you’ll find three fireplaces, soaring solid wood ceilings with exposed beams, and a spacious chef’s kitchen anchored by an impressive 6’ x 9’ island—perfect for gatherings and casual dining. A lush central courtyard with mature greenery and a tranquil water feature creates seamless indoor-outdoor living. The peaceful primary suite, multiple flexible living spaces, and generous layout make this home ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. Additional highlights include: • A 30x50 six-car garage • Paved private driveway • 1,000-gallon owned propane tank • Brand-new 1,500-gallon septic system • High-tech water softener system • Dedicated well house • Frequent visits from abundant local wildlife Architecturally significant, privately tucked away, and rich in character—this is a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Colorado’s mid-century modern heritage, just minutes from the city.
