South University Blvd., Estate of the Day

Filed under: Estates

Today's home in Denver's Polo Club neighborhood looks like it belongs to a professional athlete. it has one of the most lavish gyms I have ever seen with an adjoining treatment room that includes a Vichy shower. The five-bedroom home was built in the 1920s but was remodeled recently (it was home to the first original floating staircase in Denver). This huge home is over 18,000 square feet and has an eight-car garage.

The home's dining room and fireplace are part of the original stables. There is also a large great room with a vintage fireplace. The home includes a smoking room with an air purifier, a magnificent sunroom with marble columns, billiards room and a beautiful bookstore-like library. The home's master suite has a wet bar, fireplace, luxury bathroom and sitting room. The home is on 1.71 acres and has a driveway with radiant heat. It is listed at $6.45 million.

The Four Seasons Hotel Denver is nearly completed. We've been charting the progress of this 45-story hotel and private residences building since 2008. It's finally nearing completion offering 102 one, two, three and four bedroom designs priced from approximately $ 895,000 to $7.5 million as well as a 18 floors of hotel space. The hotel will be home to nearly 1,200 original art works by contemporary Colorado artists. The collection will be on display throughout the 45-story building to create a gallery-like setting.

The collection's 1,180 pieces range from glass and stone to bronze, metal, oils, pastels, photography, giclée prints and more. The Four Seasons Hotel Denver owners worked with interior design firm Bilkey Llinas Design of Palm Beach, Florida and Denver-based LewisGraham Art Consultants on the selection of the art works.Most of the art is in public spaces on the first three floors and there will be an extensive display in Edge Restaurant on the first floor. Another substantial display of art can be found in the 16th floor Presidential Suite. Artists featured include Will Clift who specializes in large wood sculptures; Wayne Salge who makes bronze horse sculptures; Jeffrey Keith, a Denver artist who works with oils on linen and on mylar; Ana Maria Hernando, a Denver painter who works with flower imagery on paper, panel and canvas; and Trine Bumiller, a Denver artist who creates large sculptural pieces.
