Belcaro Park

Belcaro Park is a small enclave of ranch style and two-story homes on larger lots. Known as a quiet, in-town neighborhood Belcaro is stately while unpretentious.

The historic Phipps House is at 3400 Belcaro Drive and was built by Lawrence C. Phipps, treasurer of Carnegie Steel and U.S. Senator. Charles A. Platt and sons designed the red brick Georgian mansion, and Phipps called it “Belcaro” (Italian for “beautiful dear one”). The mansion was donated to the University of Denver in 1964 and now serves as a museum and conference center. Many beautiful weddings have been held at Phipps Mansion and the Phipps Tennis House.

The Belcaro neighborhood is just east of Bonnie Brae and Washington Park and offers central Denver living with easy access to Cherry Creek and I-25.
