About This Home
A Colorado Sanctuary of Freedom, Luxury & Self-Reliance
7615 Lemon Gulch Way • Castle Rock, CO 80108
26.47 Acres | Agricultural Zoning | Off-Grid Power | European-Inspired Estate
Discover one of Colorado’s most unique private estates—where mountain views, open acreage, and modern sustainability unite just 12 minutes from downtown Castle Rock. Set behind gates in Castle Park Ranch, this 26.47-acre property offers an unmatched lifestyle for buyers seeking large ag-zoned land, recreational freedom, and self-sufficient living.
Land & Outdoor Features
Stretching across rolling meadows with lake and mountain vistas, the property borders the Rueter-Hess Reservoir’s protected open space, providing direct access to hiking and wildlife. Nearly 20 acres are fenced for livestock or horses and include automated irrigation to support the greenhouse, raised gardens, and 18 fruit trees. Two buried storage pods and dual 1,000-gallon fuel tanks enhance readiness, while 2,000 gallons of propane, a commercial-grade generators, and a solar power system with battery backup ensure uninterrupted energy independence.
A Home Built for Both Comfort and Capability
The residence spans almost 11,000 sq ft across three levels, combining architectural grace with modern systems. Inside are 7 bedrooms and 8 baths, expansive gathering rooms with fireplaces, and panoramic windows framing Colorado’s natural beauty.
The chef’s kitchen includes GE Monogram appliances, dual refrigerators, a 48-inch range, warming drawer, and a butler’s pantry with wine cooler and dishwasher—perfect for hosting or long-term provisioning. The primary suite offers a fireplace, vaulted ceiling, jetted tub, heated toilet, and walk-in closet with cedar storage.
Entertainment spaces include a recreation room with wet bar and second kitchen, a home theater with tiered seating and 4K projection, and multiple decks with outdoor audio. The Sonos® system, security system, radiant heat, central vacuum, and whole-house fire sprinklers illustrate the home’s thoughtful integration of safety and luxury.
Resort-Style Recreation at Home
Outdoor amenities turn this property into a private Colorado resort: a basketball court, shuffleboard and croquet areas, gazebo with fireplace and power, outdoor kitchen and bar, hot tub, and a zip line for adventure-minded guests. The manicured grounds feature mature landscaping, gravel paths, and panoramic sunsets over Pikes Peak.
For hunters, anglers, and climbers, the surrounding Douglas County foothills provide quick access to premier game management units, fishing lakes, and trail networks—all while maintaining the privacy of a secure, gated ranch community.
Preparedness & Peace of Mind
Purpose-built for resilience, 7615 Lemon Gulch Way offers independence from municipal utilities while retaining modern comfort. Redundant systems—solar power, battery backup, commercial generator and backup generator, propane, and fuel storage—combine with a private well, greenhouse, and livestock capacity to create a true self-sustaining estate. The home includes monitored security with cameras and sensors, a fire sprinkler network, and solid construction with concrete and stucco materials built to last. Includes a hidden panic/storage room.
Location & Access
Situated in unincorporated Douglas County for added privacy and regulatory flexibility, the property is 12 minutes to Castle Rock’s restaurants and shops, 20 minutes to Park Meadows or Dove Valley, and under an hour to Denver International Airport.
Financial & Agricultural Benefits
An agricultural designation significantly reduces property taxes while permitting livestock grazing or other small-scale farming operations. The private well permit supports domestic use, livestock watering, and up to one acre of irrigation—rare for properties in this region. HOA dues cover grounds and snow removal, maintaining the gated community in top condition.
The Colorado Dream—Realized
For buyers seeking more than a house, this estate represents a complete Colorado lifestyle: land ownership, mountain views, energy independence, and the freedom to live on your terms. Whether as a primary residence, a private mountain retreat, or a secure family compound, 7615 Lemon Gulch Way delivers exceptional value in design, capability, and location.
