The reimagined residence in Denver’s exclusive Cherry Hills Village is listed for $10.1 million.
Cherry Hills Village is a well-heeled community in the greater Denver area, about 10 miles from downtown yet somewhat of a world away.
Its lush parklike neighborhoods are filled with luxury homes in a variety of architectural styles – some exceeding 10,000 square feet and sitting on lots of more than an acre. Just the setting for large-scale entertaining.
This nearly two-acre estate is set behind gates on a double lot with a tennis court and a swimming pool. The 16,209-square-foot mansion, with a stone exterior and a slate roof, was originally designed in the 1980s by Michael Barber and built by Al Cohen Construction Co. Then in 2015 it underwent a contemporary transformation under the guidance of designer David Hintgen and builder Micky Miller.
The estate is accessed via two driveways and measures about 1.8 acres.
Tall double doors open to the foyer, which has a skylight at the apex of its pyramidal ceiling. Wide gallery halls lead to the four main living spaces – the dining room, the study, the family room and the living room. There are inlaid oak parquet floors.
Eye-catching details abound, both inside and outside the residence.
