Experience one of Colorado’s most extraordinary private estates. An architecturally stunning earth home nestled on nearly 7 secluded acres in Black Forest. Constructed from over 1,500 recycled tires, mud, aluminum cans, and glass bottles, this remarkable residence blends sustainable design, artistry, and luxury living. Engineered to maintain approximately 65 degrees year-round, the home offers energy efficiency through passive and active solar design, an EPDM rubber membrane roof, stucco exterior, slanted windows lining the front of the home, and five skylights that provide natural light. Designed for privacy and lifestyle, the cross-fenced acreage is ideal for horses and includes a barn with 2–3 stalls and hay storage, heated tack shed with water, additional storage sheds, fenced dog area, multiple patios, pergola, water feature, and pond. A whole-home generator and septic system designed for 5 bedrooms add practicality. Inside, artistic craftsmanship takes over with custom mosaic features, including an incredible entry art piece that can function as a water feature, plus 12 mandalas integrated throughout the home. A kiva fireplace, built-in cabinetry, built-in seating, and other nooks create uniqueness to the home. The split kitchen offers exceptional prep and storage space with abundant cabinetry, pantry storage, and adjoining dining areas. The private primary suite features another kiva fireplace, dual closets, walk-out patio, and spa-like ensuite complete with steam available shower, double vanity, and a custom heat-retaining tub crafted with various stones. Additional spaces include two non-conforming bedrooms with private observatories, two jack-and-jill baths, dedicated office, an additional non-conforming Murphy bed bedroom, mudroom, laundry, and utility room off the attached 2-car garage. A truly irreplaceable work of art and engineering, this Black Forest earth home offers an unmatched opportunity to own one of Colorado’s most unique luxury properties.
