THE ESTATE
Some properties announce themselves. Gold Run Estate simply reveals what was always there.
Walk through 10-foot double doors and the Colorado landscape unfolds in front of you: a wall of glass opens to a covered patio, a man-made pond wraps the foundation, and a 30-foot waterfall rises from the stone. Beyond the evergreens, Pikes Peak fills the western sky.
This is not a manufactured moment. It is the natural consequence of building the right home on the right site.
THE FINEST HOMESITE IN FLYING HORSE NORTH
Positioned alongside the 1st and 18th holes of a Phil Smith-designed championship course — ranked among Golfweek’s Top 200 Residential Courses in the U.S. for 2024, 2025, and 2026 — Gold Run Estate occupies nearly four private acres with unobstructed west-facing Pikes Peak views from five interior rooms and two outdoor decks.
Custom built by Riverwood Homes of Colorado, this 7,273 square-foot residence across three fully finished levels was designed for the way life is actually lived. It is functional and welcoming, with extraordinary surroundings that never come at the expense of genuine comfort. Every room serves a purpose. Every finish was chosen to endure. This is an estate built with substance — not spectacle.
The lot is approved for a secondary residence — a casita matching the home’s architectural style — offering rare optionality for guest quarters, multigenerational living, or a private studio. The property has been sought after as a venue for large-scale events and weddings, a testament to the site’s beauty, scale, and versatility.
MAIN LEVEL: WHERE INSIDE MEETS OUTSIDE
Living & Entry
Ten-foot double doors open into the main living area with immediate sightlines through to the patio and waterfall. A wall of glass creates seamless indoor-outdoor flow to the covered patio, fire pit, and pond. The experience is immersive from the first step.
Kitchen
Awarded Best Kitchen at the 2021 Parade of Homes. Full ceiling-height cabinetry with glass insets, large center island, 36-inch gas cooktop with oven, secondary wall oven, and built-in microwave. Designed for function — hosting, cooking, and gathering without crowding.
Primary Suite
A private wing with floor-to-ceiling fireplace and patio door to a private deck with hot tub. The bathroom is anchored by a freestanding soaking tub centered under a picture window framing Pikes Peak — surrounded by nothing but nature. Built-in closet components complete the retreat.
Office & Guest Suite
A dedicated home office adjacent to the primary suite with Pikes Peak views — positioned for focus and privacy. A main-level guest suite with three-quarter bath provides comfortable accommodation without navigating stairs.
UPPER LEVEL: THE LIFESTYLE SUITE
At 854 square feet, the upper-level Lifestyle Suite is the room you didn’t know you needed. An expansive covered deck opens to panoramic Pikes Peak views at treetop level — the owner calls it the eagle’s nest, and one visit explains why. The space includes its own three-quarter bath with a custom wood vanity crafted from the same material as the one-of-a-kind waterfall countertop downstairs, tying the home together with a thread of bespoke craftsmanship.
Prepped for a hot tub and adaptable to any vision — home gym, wine lounge, creative studio, media room, or simply the best seat in the house for watching the sun set behind the peak.
WALKOUT LOWER LEVEL: A HOME WITHIN THE HOME
Finished to the exact quality of the main level, the walkout lower level is a self-contained entertaining wing. Three guest bedrooms — including a Jack-and-Jill suite with double vanity and an en-suite that also serves the entertaining area — provide ample space for multi-generational gatherings or extended guests.
The entertaining lounge features a fireplace, gallery wall, and a built-in bar with one-of-a-kind waterfall wood countertop, beverage fridge, dishwasher, microwave, and sink. Full walkout access opens to the south-facing grounds, the regulation pickleball court, and the Colorado sky.
THE LIFE LIVED HERE
Mornings begin in a freestanding tub centered under a picture window framing nothing but mountain and sky. Your family gathers for Thanksgiving around a fireplace in a lower-level living space that feels like a private lodge.
Your grandchildren chase each other around the pickleball court in summer and snowboard the first fairway in winter. You sharpen your short game on the private chipping green, then settle into the eagle’s nest with a glass of wine as the sun drops behind Pikes Peak.
The home itself disappears into the background — because it was designed not to demand attention, but to hold the life happening inside it.
THE GROUNDS: 3.81 ACRES OF PRIVATE COLORADO
The grounds of Gold Run Estate are as intentional as the home itself. Nearly four acres wrapped in natural topography and screened by mature evergreens, with the nearest neighbor approximately 180 yards to the northwest — visible only through a natural tree line.
• Man-made pond surrounding the back patio with a 30-foot waterfall feature
• Private chipping and putting green integrated into the waterfall landscape
• Regulation pickleball court with stadium lighting and elevated spectator seating — built to professional standards for a competitive player
• Fire pit on the main patio
• Two-story deck and patio system with covered and uncovered areas
• Stucco and custom brick-style layered stone veneer exterior with arched entrance
• Stamped concrete and brick-style walkways
• Oversized 4-car garage
• Casita-eligible lot — approved for a secondary residence matching the home’s architecture
• Site has been sought after for large-scale events and weddings
CHAMPIONSHIP GOLF: YOUR BACKYARD IS THE 1ST FAIRWAY
Gold Run Estate sits alongside the 1st and 18th holes of the Flying Horse North championship golf course — an 18-hole Phil Smith design ranked among Golfweek’s Top 200 Residential Courses in the United States for three consecutive years. Tee times are exclusively available to resort guests and members.
The course winds through the Black Forest and out into the prairie, utilizing the natural landscape to create variety from hole to hole. Hole #1 plays just over 100 feet downhill with Pikes Peak as its backdrop — and Gold Run Estate is the home that frames that opening shot.
A new clubhouse is breaking ground in 2026 on the ridge above the estate. A high-end restaurant is planned across the 1st hole, with world-class hospitality brands reportedly in discussions. Golf course lots in Flying Horse North are currently selling for up to $1.4 million.
FLYING HORSE RESORT & CLUB: RESORT-CALIBER LIVING
Flying Horse North is part of the larger Flying Horse Resort & Club community, offering optional membership access to an exceptional collection of amenities.
