About This Home
Under Construction — Observatory Park Estate | Completion Early January 2026
A rare chance to secure one of the most significant and generously sized new-construction homes in Observatory Park. Positioned on a premier 0.3-acre lot — one of the largest in the neighborhood — this modern custom estate blends intentional design, refined style, and unmatched scale.
Currently underway and expected to be complete in early January 2026, this residence will offer approximately 7,780 finished sq. ft. across four levels, including a fully finished basement. Clean modern lines, floor-to-ceiling European windows, and continuous white-oak hardwood floors create a warm, elevated atmosphere throughout. Ten-foot ceilings and expansive glass enhance natural light and effortless indoor-outdoor connection.
The main level is designed for everyday luxury and entertaining, featuring an impressive chef’s kitchen with an oversized waterfall island, custom cabinetry, luxury stone surfaces, a walk-in pantry, and a full butler’s pantry with beverage service. A hidden room adds a memorable touch, while a private office or flex suite provides versatility. The open living room, anchored by one of four fireplaces, flows to a covered outdoor lounge for year-round enjoyment.
The second level offers a serene primary suite with a boutique-style dressing room and private laundry access, plus a spa-inspired bath with marble finishes, dual vanities, a freestanding tub, and a wet-room shower. Two additional ensuite bedrooms complete the level.
The third floor includes a bright lounge, custom wet bar, guest suite, and covered terrace with fireplace and neighborhood vistas. A private elevator services all levels, and a 5-car garage accommodates storage and hobbies with ease. The fully finished basement provides additional space for entertainment, fitness, or recreation.
A rare opportunity to personalize finishes and create a legacy home in one of Denver’s most coveted neighborhoods.
