A unique two-bedroom rock house in Larkspur, Colorado, built around 200-million-year-old red rock, is now for sale at $1 million. The property, described as blending natural beauty with innovative architectural design, has captured the attention of real estate experts and potential buyers.
The home, which resembles a scene from ‘The Flintstones,’ is built directly into the ancient red rock formations that define the area. Listing agent Phillip Booghier, a global real estate adviser, described the property as offering an ‘unmatched blend of architectural creativity and natural beauty.’ The dramatic rock wall, rising through all three levels of the house, serves as the home’s centerpiece, anchoring each floor in natural grandeur.
The integration of the natural rock into the home’s design was carefully executed, with the use of spray poly foam, epoxy, and acrylic caulking to create a weatherproof bond. The home’s design reflects the dramatic surroundings, featuring a floating staircase with custom iron railings, exposed beam ceilings, warm wood finishes, and windows that highlight natural light and expansive views.
Outside, the property offers a range of outdoor amenities, including private walking trails, a scenic picnic area, and a private hot tub with views of the Milky Way. These features, along with the unique setting, provide a sense of peace and serenity that is rare in modern residential spaces. Despite its age and previous market appearances, the home remains a one-of-a-kind architectural statement, transforming nature’s artistry into a functional and immersive living experience.
