3 Metro Denver Homes That Are Straight Out Of A Fairy Tale

DENVER, CO — It doesn't take millions of dollars to live in your own 'fairy tale' home, but for a few listings in Colorado, money definitely helps.

Denver's metro area has no shortage of luxury homes; however, not every local mansion has a rich history and fairy tale-like appeal.

Here are three homes that belong on the pages of childhood classics:

This old-world Denver luxury home on Cedar Avenue has been listed for $7.9 million. Built in 1933, the fairytale-like Tudor estate was commissioned by famous Denver architect Temple Hoyne Buell.

The 11,500-square foot house features intricate exterior brick walls that were built by skilled England bricklayers, listing agents said. Most of the home's rooms surround a spiral staircase that leads to the third floor, where a 60-foot tower offers 360 degree views.

The home also features its original leaded glass windows, crystal chandeliers, ornate handcrafted wood paneling, parquet flooring and hand-painted ceilings.

The home's kitchen has been upgraded and a new family room has been added.

The property also offers more than one acre of land with a covered formal patio, rose gardens, 4,000-square-foot patio, an outdoor kitchen, a fire pit, a large pool and a cabana with a TV.

Lakewood's most expensive home listing features eight bedrooms, six bathrooms and a tennis court. Listed for $3.2 million, the 8,500-square-foot home sits on a five-acre lot at 6650 Lakeridge Rd.

The English Tudor 'fairy tale' home, which features private lakefront access, includes a boat house, a dock and a sandy beach.

"Enjoying your coffee overlooking the sprawling mountain views," the home's listing read. "Surrounded by equestrian land and exquisite estates, this property is serenity at its best."

The house also features a two bedroom, one bathroom guest house.

The mansion was built in 1918, and maintains many of its original features, listing agents said.

This six-bedroom, nine-bathroom country club home, at 380 N Gilpin St. in Denver, has been listed for $5.9 million.

Dubbed 'The Corner Chateau," the property also includes fairy tale-like, professionally landscaped gardens.

"Designed by Burnham Hoyt in the 1920's, it retains much of its original character, including a 4,000 volume wood-paneled library, leaded glass windows with the initials of the original owners, a weather vane designed and gifted to the owners by Hoyt, and much more," the home's listing read.

The home also includes an exercise room, three fireplaces, walk-in closets and a home theater.
