Cliff Haus

, Castle Pines

Perched atop the dramatic cliffs of Castle Pines, 615 Cliffgate Lane offers a striking interplay between modern architecture and Colorado’s rugged natural beauty. This reimagined 2002 residence - acquired by its current owners in 2006 - has undergone a meticulous, full-scale renovation, transforming it into a refined, contemporary sanctuary. Tucked within an exclusive enclave of architecturally significant homes, the property delivers far more than the expected hallmarks of a golf course community. With every surface, system, and space re-envisioned, it stands today as a virtually new home - an inspired retreat that balances bold design with timeless comfort. For the design-savvy buyer, this is a singular opportunity to inhabit a home where craft, context, and innovation converge.

Here, nature isn't merely a backdrop - it’s an essential part of the architecture. Framed by expansive, unobstructed views of Pike’s Peak and the southern and western ranges, the Rocky Mountains take a commanding role in the home’s design narrative. Nearly every room is oriented to celebrate this breathtaking panorama, creating a constant visual dialogue between structure and landscape.

To elevate this connection, the entryway sets the tone with a monumental double glass door, ushering in both light and a sense of grandeur. Every window throughout the 8,240-square-foot home has been replaced with top-tier architectural glazing, designed not just for performance, but to blur the boundary between indoors and out. Inside, the vision comes to life through the expert eye of Kerri Burcham of Citrus and Steel Design, whose signature approach blends organic textures with refined modernism. Each detail - curated, intentional, and tactile - has been brought into being by the masterful execution of Lifehouse Construction. The result is a home that’s as livable as it is visually striking: a sophisticated, grounded retreat where design and nature exist in perfect harmony.

Set on 1.78 acres of thoughtfully landscaped terrain, 615 Cliffgate Lane redefines outdoor living. At its heart lies an infinity-edge pool that appears to spill into the mountainous horizon, flanked by expansive patios designed for quiet reflection or elegant entertaining. A sculptural gas fire pit anchors one of these outdoor spaces, offering a warm counterpoint to Colorado’s crisp alpine air. A 578-square-foot pavilion - with sleek retractable doors - extends the home’s livable footprint into the landscape. Here, form and function intersect in a minimalist pavilion that opens seamlessly to a serene platform, ideal for morning yoga, afternoon sunbathing, or stargazing under the vast Western sky. Just beyond, a series of raised garden beds provide a tactile connection to the land - an invitation for homegrown produce and hands-in-the-dirt mindfulness.

And yet, what lies beyond the sweeping views and sculpted landscape is a residence defined by its nuanced, deeply considered design. At every turn, this remarkable home reveals layers of intentionality - an interplay of clean lines, warm materials, and modern function that speaks to both aesthetic rigor and everyday livability. With five bedrooms and five refined bathrooms, the home artfully finds the balance between a private retreat and open, fluid communal spaces. Dual offices offer serene spaces for focused work, while a thoughtfully placed breakfast nook, bathed in morning light, adjoins a state-of-the-art kitchen. Even utility spaces have been elevated - the laundry and pantry room is not just practical, but also design-forward, delivering quiet luxury where it’s least expected.

The architectural centerpiece, however, may well be the staircase to the walk-out lower level - a sculptural element that transcends utility to become an expression of movement and material. Throughout, integrated smart home and entertainment systems ensure seamless modern living.

615 Cliffgate Lane is not simply a reimagined home within one of Castle Pines’ most coveted enclaves - it is a singular design achievement, a curated experience of architecture, technology, and landscape, impossible to replicate and effortless to inhabit.
