1493 Silver Valley Road

Silver Plume Castle is a one-of-a-kind 5,564 sq ft estate set on over two-thirds of an acre along Clear Creek in the historic mountain town of Silver Plume. In the same family since construction began in the early 1960s, its original foundation was hand-chiseled from granite bedrock, with a Colonial-style addition added in the 1980s. Built as a labor of love, the Castle incorporates salvaged architectural treasures from Denver’s historic mansions and churches, preserving stained glass windows, cherry wood pocket doors, antique mantles, carved trim, and a cast iron spiral staircase. Notable pieces include doors from the former Montaldo’s building and a striking chandelier from Ciudad Juarez, matched to the staircase for a dramatic focal point.
Inside, a vaulted great room with a wood-burning fireplace offers warmth and grandeur, while large windows frame views of the mountains and Clear Creek. The spacious layout blends intimate retreats with impressive gathering spaces, featuring multiple living areas, generous bedrooms, and period details throughout.
Outside, a separate creekside studio provides an ideal space for yoga, a personal gym, or a workshop, accompanied by the soothing sound of rushing water. Just minutes from historic downtown Silver Plume and a short drive to world-class ski resorts, the property offers both seclusion and convenience. With some TLC and vision, this home will continue to be a magnificent piece of Colorado history for generations to come.
