The Phipps Mansion, Georgian mansion in Belcaro, Denver, United States.
The Phipps Mansion is a neoclassical villa in Belcaro with extensive rooms that combine imported English pieces and local Colorado building materials. The building now serves as a conference center hosting various events and gatherings.
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.
The mansion reflects its former owner's passion for European and Asian art collections displayed throughout different rooms. Visitors today can see these treasures and understand how wealthy families displayed their refinement at home.
The property sits at the intersection of Madison Street and Belcaro Drive and is easy to locate. Visitors should know that the house primarily serves event and conference purposes, so public tours may be limited.
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.
