DENVER – It’s the Grande Dame of private estates in

Denver.  The breathtaking Petrikin Estate, nestled alongside Denver’s Botanic Gardens, was the featured property in a recent issue of USA Today’s weekly “Close to Home” column showcasing the real estate market in various U.S. cities.  Listed exclusively by Darrell Hamilton, broker associate with The Kentwood Company at Cherry Creek, the “Crown Jewel” of all
Denver estates is listed for $7.5 million, a remarkable price for a priceless luxury property that can never be duplicated in one of

Denver’s finest historic neighborhoods.

            The USA Today article featuring the

Denver real estate market always includes a photo of one of the most expensive homes for sale, and The Petrikin Estate at

2109 East 9^th Avenue was selected for this particular article published on October 14^th.  It is the only full block, private “resort style” estate in the city of

Denver.  After a three-year, $2.5 million museum-quality renovation just recently completed, the palatial estate is now for sale.  The Petrikin Estate offers the best in luxury living and was awarded Historic Landmark Designation this past August.

            Handsome brick walls and wrought-iron fences ensure privacy on all sides of this elegant, one-of-a-kind residence.  The grounds include a lovely carriage house, a 40-foot swimming pool with cabana, automated security gate, and a 400-square-foot veranda.  The three-story residence is a prime example of Georgian Colonial Revival architecture. 

            The finished lower level includes a large dance hall, two safes, wine cellar, meditation room, half bath, rosewood book cases, and a state-of-the-art theater system with 103-inch movie screen.  The expansive master suite offers wood floors decorated with diamond-pattern inlays and huge his-and-her walk-in closets with built-in cabinetry.  There’s an inviting fireplace with wood mantel, a spacious outdoor terrace, and a spa-style bath with marble floors, jetted tub, and sumptuous appointments. 

            The magnificent kitchen showcases custom-designed Clive Christian European furniture, crown molding, oak floors, an original canning room, commercial grade Sub-Zero appliances, and white marble countertops with black
Labrador granite for the large kitchen island.  The owners will enjoy floor-to-ceiling cabinetry and a butler’s pantry.  The mansion includes a fitness studio, piped-in music throughout, and a glorious main parlor with wood burning fireplace and built-in china cabinets. 

            The Petrikin Estate is a stunning residential venue offering approximately 14,000 square feet on a one-acre block where the new owners will relish in unparalleled luxury while living in the heart of the city near all of

Denver’s outstanding attractions.
