Wheat Ridge, CO 80033

Property Description

Custom designed (with the help of SERI Solar Energy Research Institute) and custom built. On the “Ridge” of Wheat Ridge with outstanding city/mountain views. Very private location at the end of a dead end road with cul-de-sac and landscaped to be secluded from all neighbors. Just 5 blocks from Crown Hill Open Space and 8 blocks from Anderson Park/Clear Creek riding/biking/walking trails. Entire half acre site was re-landscaped and has won awards for the gardens and water feature that is complete with an island and 7 waterfalls. Over 250 tons of rock was brought in to create the flagstone pathways that meander through the gardens, across the waterfall and surround the home. Over 50 large boulders were brought in for retaining walls and landscape interest. Water rights are included to the Rocky Mountain Ditch that flows through the property, provides water for the ponds and waterfalls and is also the water source for the inground sprinkler system that includes double filtration and over 200 pop up heads. There are over 50 lights in the landscaping that provide lighting for the pathways and spotlight points of interest in the garden and waterfalls at night. The room that accommodates the indoor pool and hot tub is not just additional living area and entertainment space but the enormous amount of concrete in this room along with the water in the hot tub and swimming pool exist to collect passive solar heat. The rest of the house was designed "around" this room. This home was built as a duplex and remains a legal duplex. Great opportunity for airbnb/VRBO. New roof, new gutters and downspouts, new skylights, new PELLA patio door, 3 new Pella picture windows with side crank out windows all installed in 2017. New high efficiency, 6 zone, NTI boiler with all new plumbing in fall 2022. Please see “Property Details” in the supplement section.
