[2] Built between 1931 and 1933,[3] the 33,000 square feet (3,100 m2) Georgian style Phipps Mansion consists of more than seventy rooms, two of which were imported from England.
The facility is decorated in the Chippendale and Queen Anne styles and features European, American, and Asian art.
The elegant Georgian mansion, spacious Tudor and Mediterranean style tennis pavilion with historically designed gardens and grounds combine to form what many believe is the region's premier estate.
[5] While it was built largely from local products, the house contains antiques, art work, tapestries, sculpture and rare books from around the world.
[4] Over the past four decades, the mansion has been a popular venue for weddings, various corporate and philanthropic events, as well as receptions and other celebrations.
The chandeliers are Sheffield Sterling, and the carving over the hall door portrays the Phipps' family crest.
Andrew Carnegie presented the massive Swiss grandfather clock, located at the top of the staircase, to Lawrence Cowle Phipps as a gift.
[4] In December 2010,[8] the mansion was sold to Denver philanthropist Tim Gill and his husband Scott Miller.
