9250 Steeplechase Dr.
Franktown, CO
Situated in a gated community amongst the open vistas and pine forests of Franktown, Colorado, this beautiful estate comprises a custom home, equestrian facilities and 35 acres in a pastoral setting.
As you enter the private gate, you are presented with a curvilinear driveway that is accented with cobble and stone bollards. At the top of the drive sits a custom residence that carries old-world architectural elements, and is surrounded by mature pines and formal landscaping. The quality of the home is readily apparent in the exterior details that include exceptional stone work, copper gutters, a steep roof line, and the use of timbers.
Once inside, you are immediately met with an interior aesthetic that can only be achieved through a beautifully crafted open-frame timber structure, complete with mortise and tenon joinery, and accented with tongue and groove ceilings, wide plank flooring, oversized windows and exquisite mill work. The open and inviting layout is amplified with an 18’ ceiling, and a full-height stacked stone fireplace. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, equipped with a 48” Wolf gas range, Subzero refrigerator, refrigerated produce drawers, a spacious center island with breakfast bar, and a generous walk-in pantry. High-end custom cabinetry, granite and soapstone countertops, and thoughtfully designed tile backsplash details elevate the look. The butler’s pantry sits between the kitchen and formal dining room. Lighting is controlled via a Lutron low-voltage system. The whole-house audio system with built-in speakers, is controlled by Savant and Sonos. There is a fully hardwired alarm system. The entire home and garage enjoys radiant floor heat.
The main floor primary suite includes a fireplace, coffee bar, and a spa-like bathroom, with a deep soaking jetted tub framed by timbers and windows with relaxing views. There is a private patio with a water feature that is directly accessed from the suite, adding to the feeling of an exclusive retreat.
Just off the main living area and kitchen area is a covered patio, sharing the two-sided fireplace, with a prominent water feature. The rear yard is an oasis, that is meticulously landscaped, and set within a grove of pines.
Additional spaces include an upper level bonus room with a ½ bath, and a finished basement with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a rec room with full bar service bar including refrigerator, sink and dishwasher.
