$6.9m Colorado, USA. Sedalia’s ‘Shook Castle’ is For Sale
Shook Castle is For Sale with Felicia C. Jenkins of Joy Fel Real Estate – Sotheby's International Realty
Known as Shook Castle, 3120 Bears Den Drive rises like a modern Gothic fortress within the exclusive gated community of Bear’s Den in Sedalia. Completed in 2012 and crafted from rich Oklahoma Red Granite inside and out, its imposing presence is crowned by three steel turrets capped with copper-hued metal. This 15+ acre estate blends medieval grandeur with modern craftsmanship, from its turreted silhouette to the intricate stonework and custom finishes that give it the aura of a true stronghold.
Inside, the main level offers dramatic architectural flourishes at every turn. The grand foyer, set beneath the first soaring turret, flows into an open dining room crowned with a barrel-shaped brick ceiling, while a regal kitchen anchors the living spaces—its breakfast nook tucked inside the second turret. Custom handmade walnut doors, walnut floors, unique lighting and plumbing fixtures, and countertops crafted from reclaimed railroad car floors add a sense of individuality. The master chamber combines timber-beamed ceilings, stone-walled accents, and a curved hall leading to a luxurious bath suite lit from above by the third turret. Additional main-level features include a private guest en-suite with its own entrance and fireplace, and access to an upper-level suite ideal for a caretaker or cigar lounge, complete with balconies and a private bath.
The castle’s lower level continues the theme of opulent versatility, accessed via a sweeping circular staircase or a secondary entry. Here, a theater room, game room, full kitchen wet bar, and Parisian-inspired en-suite evoke boutique hotel luxury. A walk-out fitness room with private bath could serve as a fifth bedroom. Modern mechanicals include geo-thermal and radiant heating, instant hot water, air circulation systems, and indoor-outdoor surround sound. Outdoors, the estate commands mountain views and offers three fire-lit patios, a pond, a greenhouse, heated pavers, and an additional garage for recreational vehicles—ensuring the castle’s dominion extends seamlessly into its surrounding landscape.
