🚀🐾 Exploring The Sculptured House in Golden, Colorado – Woody Allen’s “Sleeper House”

Simba 🐾 and I made a stop at The Sculptured House in Golden, Colorado, one of the most iconic and futuristic landmarks in the state. Perched high on Genesee Mountain, this home is often nicknamed the “Sleeper House” after its appearance in Woody Allen’s 1973 film Sleeper.

With its sleek, curved lines and space-age design, The Sculptured House looks like something straight out of science fiction, perfectly contrasted against the rugged beauty of the Colorado Rockies.

📍 Location & Highlights

🏠 The Sculptured House — a futuristic architectural masterpiece by Charles Deaton.
🎬 Woody Allen’s Sleeper House — gained fame in the 1973 sci-fi comedy.
🌄 Mountain Backdrop — set dramatically on Genesee Mountain overlooking Golden.
📸 Photo-Worthy Stop — we explored the exterior and captured plenty of photos and video of its spaceship-like design.

🐾 Simba’s Adventure

Simba might not have understood the futuristic vibes, but he loved sniffing around the mountain air while I admired this architectural oddity. For him, it was just another great spot to stretch his legs — with one of the most unique homes in Colorado as a backdrop.
