The Phipps Mansion, Georgian mansion in Belcaro, Denver, United States

The Phipps Mansion, also called Belcaro, is a red-brick Georgian-style house with a gray hipped roof at Madison Street and Belcaro Drive. Its left section has a projecting bay with a triangular pediment over a round window and a column-framed entrance; two tall brick chimneys rise from the left roofline. The 33,000-square-foot residence has more than seventy rooms, two imported from England.

Steel magnate Lawrence Phipps had this house built between 1931 and 1933 while the United States struggled with the Great Depression. As a former US Senator, Phipps played an important role in the economy and politics of his era.

Lawrence Cowle Phipps and his third wife, Margaret Rogers, named the house Belcaro, Italian for "dear one". The interiors are decorated in the Chippendale and Queen Anne styles, and two of the more than seventy rooms were imported from England. The mansion is a private residence as of 2025, so the art and panelling are not open to the public.

The mansion stands at the corner of Madison Street and Belcaro Drive in the Belcaro neighbourhood of southeast Denver. It is a private residence as of 2025 and is not open to visitors, so the house and its grounds can only be seen from the public street.

The dining room contains 250-year-old Colonial American pine paneling with detailed craftsmanship. The billiard room features 400-year-old English oak walls with cleverly hidden storage spaces.
