WHAT IS THE DENVER MLS SEARCH?

The Denver MLS Search or Multiple Listing Service search is a search of all Denver real estate property listings provided by real estate brokers and shared through a central database system.  Real estate brokers enter the property information of their listings into this central Denver MLS search database so that all licensed brokers who are Realtor members can access the information about their Denver property listings for sale.

Brokers then have the information necessary to share with their buyer clients to call and set a showing on the property.  On this web site, www.ColoradoCastles.com you can perform your own custom Denver MLS search.  Other public accessible sites that you can perform a Denver MLS search that we are affiliated with are www.Realtor.com and www.REColorado.com. 

Realtor.com (www.realtor.com) is a web-site that allows the public to perform a Denver mls search.  Realtor.com also has a wide range of useful information for home buyers and home sellers.  If you are thinking of buying or selling, you may also want to visit Realtor.com for more information.

REColorado.com (www.recolorado.com) is a web-site that provides all of the Denver mls listings to the public.  REColorado is part of Metrolist, Inc.  Metrolist is the entity that manages the database of all Denver area Realtor members.  REColorado.com, much like Realtor.com utilizes information from Metrolist, however, you will find a 1-2 day delay in the new listing information, unless you are a licensed broker using the broker only MyMLS.com database provided by Metrolist.

AUTHENTIC COLORADO CASTLES THROUGHOUT COLORADO:

Bishop Castle – A Colorado Castle located in Beulah, Colorado.  There is an adage that states, "If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself." The Bishop's castle is an admirable example of that thinking. Started in 1969 by Jim Bishop, the castle is a bit of architectural fantasy snug against the San Isabel National Forest in the mountains of Colorado. The land was destined to become a castle long before Mr. Bishop knew it, himself. But his neighbors could see it. He started the project intending to erect a cottage with the abundant local stone. As that stone was laid around a large water tank, people started to joke that it looked like the Bishop home was beneath a castle turret. It was several years before Mr. Bishop would see it, too. But once he did, his focus was attenuated – he was going to build a fairy tale castle on the land he loved. His ideas are so strongly rooted and so well thought out that there are no blueprints or plans. The king of this castle simply visualizes what he wants the next segment to look like, and then goes to work bending iron, felling trees, cutting rock and laying mortar. Decades of work have yielded surprising results. The castle is replete with arches, decorated with intricate ironwork, and sports a bell tower, a steeple, and stained glass windows. There is even a dragon on the premises. Its scales are stainless steel scrap from a local hospital, and it breathes fire from a hot air balloon burner. But the work of one man's hands cannot complete the project. The great castles of Europe were built by hundreds or thousands of people over the course of many years. In order for Jim to compete, and see his work finished in his lifetime, a group of volunteers has been allowed to build ancillary structures like the castle walls, and the gate…

Burg Mary Castle – A Colorado Castle located in Colorado Springs, Colorado.  A fairly new castle being built near Colorado Springs, CO. This man wanted to build a castle his whole life. The main tower is mostly done - the other three are started. He will not let anyone help. He says "If I get it done too fast - then what will I do with myself? ...". He fills each block with concrete, and there's rebar everywhere. He wants it to last 2000+ years like the castles he grew up by in Stuttgart, Germany…

Castle Charline – One of the Colorado Castles in Denver, Colorado.  Someone wrote the following about this castle…  I used to live in Denver and actually had a friend who lived in an old castle turned into very nice condos. Sounds cheesy but it was really cool in there. The character is pretty much unaltered aside from paint on the inside, the outside still definitely looks like a castle. We explored a little, it was big and had two "sides" that were connected. I heard it was built for two sisters. One lived on one side and one on the other and the two sides were very similar but had some differences. It has beautiful balconies from what I remember. This was like '96 when I saw it. It had low windows from the inside and had a lot of turrets along with interesting doors. A lot of character. Just what you'd expect in a castle! The address is: 1421 Pennsylvania St. Denver CO and is located in the Metrolist mls Denver database.

Castle Marne – One of the Colorado Castles located in Denver, Colorado.  Built in 1889, Castle Marne is considered by many to be the finest example of "America's most eclectic architect", William Lang (designer of Unsinkable Molly Brown's house).

The Denver Chapter of the American Institute of Architects has said of this National Register building, "The Castle Marne is truly one of Denver's great architectural legacies..."  (This castle and other homes in the area are located in the DNE mls Denver area).

Cherokee Castle - One of the Colorado Castles in Sedalia, Colorado.  Mildred Montigue Genevieve Kimball, also know as 'Tweet' Kimball, lived at Cherokee Ranch from 1954-1999. An avid equestrian, she purchased two parcels of land, the Castle and Castle property (formerly known as the Flower Homestead) from Charles Johnson, Jr., and the adjacent Blunt Ranch (formerly known as the Blunt Homestead) from Ray Blunt in 1954. She renamed both pieces of land Cherokee Ranch and their combined totaled acreage remains over 3,100 acres. Tweet Kimball made her mark by renaming the building groupings on land. The Flower Homestead became Chickamauga, Charlford Castle became Cherokee Castle, the Johnson Farm become Wauhatchie and the Blunt Homestead became Amnicola…  (This castle is located in the DCW mls Denver database area, along with Castle Pines Village, which lies to the south of this property).

The castle, completed in 1941, is built on a peninsula facing one of the finest views to be seen anywhere. The crystal-clear waters of Bear Creek flow around this place in a semicircle, which adds much to its beauty and splendor and the evolutionary sound of this roaring stream and other water falls adds to its value, promoting rest and sleep…  (Dunafon Castle is located in the MJC mls Denver database).

Falcon Castle - One of the Colorado Castles in Morrison, Colorado.  The story of Mount Falcon is largely the story of John Brisben Walker, who once owned over 4,000 acres of land in this area. During the early 1900's Walker lived in an elaborate stone house on Mount Falcon while planning the construction of a summer home for the Presidents of the United States, which was to have been located on a ridge to the east of his home. Walker's home burned in 1918, and all that remains of this once splendid edifice are the massive stone walls and numerous fireplaces of a unique mountain castle.  On this site the crumbling remnants of a broken dream and the views of the plains to the east and mountains to the west combine to create an inspirational setting. The construction of the Summer White House never proceeded beyond the laying of the foundation and cornerstone, though thousands of Colorado school children each donated 10 cents toward Walker's dream. American involvement in W.W. I, combined with a waning of Walker's good fortunes, brought an end to this project. From the site of the Summer White House one may look down on Red Rocks Park, one of Walker's dreams come true…

Redstone Castle - One of the Colorado Castles in Redstone, Colorado.  Known as "the Ruby of the Rockies," Redstone was developed by turn-of-the-century industrialist John Cleveland Osgood whose coal empire spurred construction of the Crystal River Railroad and Redstone's historic dwellings.

Most of these craftsmen-era Swiss style cottages are still used as homes in Redstone.  Redstone's historic beehive coke ovens (left) were used to transform raw coal into the high-grade "coke" used in the production of steel.  Osgood constructed "Cleveholm Manor,” the opulent 42-room Tudor-style mansion now commonly referred to as "the Redstone Castle" for his second wife, Swedish Countess Alma Regina Shelgrem. By the time Cleveholm was completed in 1902, the estate included servants' quarters, a gamekeeper's lodge, a carriage house, and a greenhouse…
