Property Description

Nearly 75 acres of pristine mountainside to yourself. Two separately deeded parcels are offered together, bordered by open space on two sides, with Jefferson County Open Space directly across the canyon. What you see from the decks is protected public land, so the forest, meadow and ridgelines you fall for today stay that way. You won't see a neighbor from the house, only trees, sky and wildlife. The second parcel opens up real options. Build a separate home for loved ones or guests, with the potential to permit its own well. Keep it as a buffer and maintain full control of your privacy. Designed by Gettliffe Architecture of Boulder, the home pairs bold modern style with serious mountain sense. Stucco siding, a steel north wall, enclosed soffits, concrete deck pavers and a standing seam metal roof were chosen with wildfire in mind. Passive solar design, an Insulated Concrete Form foundation, thick insulated walls and radiant concrete floors keep it comfortable and efficient, and the roof is pitched for future solar PV and solar hot water, a clear path toward going off grid. Inside, walls of glass pour light onto polished concrete floors. A corrugated steel fireplace wall anchors the great room, the open steel staircases feel like sculpture, and the bathrooms are as artistic as the rest of the house. There are three bedrooms, a loft for an office or studio, a flex space with dog wash off the heated oversized garage, and space built in for a future elevator. Two large decks overlook evergreen forest, a meadow, a seasonal stream, rock outcroppings and a spring-fed pond. Moose and deer visit regularly. The home has been well maintained throughout. Golden is about 20 minutes away, Golden Gate Canyon State Park, White Ranch and Centennial Cone are close for hiking, biking, fishing and cross-country skiing, and I-70 makes Denver dining and ski days easy. Option to purchase just the home on 39 acres for $1,650,000. Contact agent for details.
