Although not located in the town of Bedrock, this house has taken a page from history.
It’s a Flintstones-lover’s paradise, built on top of a 45-foot-high section of rock dating back some 200 million years to the Jurassic period and surrounded by views of open spaces where dinosaurs once roamed.
It can be found in the canyons of Larkspur, Colorado, and costs just under a million dollars.
Seamlessly integrated into the surrounding landscape, it includes amenities such as a “mud room,” balcony, barbecue and private patio, as well as stunning views of the famous Rocky Mountains.
The owners are said to have “diligently” updated the original home built by the previous owner, who built the two-bedroom home in 2000. Painted the same shade of red as the rocks that tower above it, the home has only changed hands that one time.
