A multi-tiered sundeck connects the main house on the right to a poolside structure on the left both overlook a 75-foot lap pool.

It is the most expensive home for sale in the metro area.

The string of eights in the asking price is a lucky number in Japanese culture that symbolizes growth and prosperity.

The agency believes that the inclusion of eights will help market the home to be a symbol of prosperity.

The facade is made of light-colored wood that is sustainable. The blackened finish was achieved by exposing the wood to a hot flame and leaving behind a crackled and burnt finish.

The charring process, done domestically by Delta Millwork in Austin, Texas, is reminiscent of a Japanese method of preserving wood in a thin layer of carbon. The carbon protects the wood from rot and decay.

The estate is located in the affluent Cherry Hills Village neighborhood which is about 11 miles from downtown Denver. It will break a local record if it is sold near its asking price.

In the 1950s, a group of residents banded together to prevent commercialization from disrupting the charm and open space of the village.

It is one of Denver's most affluent neighborhoods where many of Colorado's wealthy and famous call home.

According to public records, the area's highest-priced sale was achieved in April when Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson and his wife, singer and songwriter Ciara, paid $25 million for a 13,000- square-foot residence in the Cherry Hills Village.

The second-highest sale for a detached single- family home in the region was in the year 2021. The former owner of the home was said to be Mike Shanahan, who coached the Broncos for over a decade.

There is a huge demand for a new caliber of residential product and record-breaking pricing in Denver.

The main home’s great room includes 22 ft tall ceilings, polished concrete floors and a wall of floor-to-ceiling glass that opens to a view of the Rocky Mountains.

The new $28.9 million listing may be helped by the local trends in Denver. The average sale price of a detached single- family home in the area was up 8% in August over last year, with listings taking just 20 days to sell.

The modern home’s facade blends charred-wood, concrete and glass.

The highest-priced home in the Denver area is being brought to market while inflation and a recession loom, but they are not worried. They think that their high-net-worth clients turn to real estate as a hedge against such things.

As investors continue to seek out real estate as a preferred investment, properties like this will continue to trade.
