Description
Own your own mountain. Set on 225 private acres crowned by the dramatic cliffside of Riley Peak, this extraordinary Conifer estate is among the most breathtaking land offerings within 30 miles of Denver. A paved 1.2-mile driveway begins at the gated entrance, winding through towering evergreens before reaching a second private gate at the residence—providing year-round access and a level of privacy rarely found this close to the city. The 7,700± sq ft brick-built estate was designed for longevity and low maintenance in the Colorado climate, while expansive windows and vaulted interiors frame the surrounding beauty. A floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace anchors the great room, complemented by custom timber trusses, a glass-wrapped sunroom, and a gourmet kitchen with premium appliances and a large granite island. The primary suite is a retreat of its own, featuring a double-sided fireplace that opens to a spa-like ensuite with a freestanding tub and sweeping mountain views. The expansive lower level offers a stone fireplace, large family room, game area, bedrooms, and a theater room—ideal for multi-generational living or extended guests. Miles of private trails wind through aspen groves, meadows, dense forest, and dramatic rock outcroppings, offering unmatched recreation for hiking, UTV exploring, wildlife viewing, and year-round adventure. Abundant wildlife—including elk, deer, and occasional moose—roam the property, enhancing its rare sense of sanctuary. Additional improvements include a 3,200± sq ft shop and multiple buildable site opportunities across the acreage, with no HOA or covenants to limit your vision. This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a private mountain estate with unmatched beauty, seclusion, and year-round accessibility—just minutes from Hwy 285, local dining, and shopping, and within effortless reach of Denver and the high country.
