Nuggets, Avs president Josh Kroenke buys Cherry Hills mansion for $16M

Josh Kroenke, president of the Denver Nuggets basketball and Avalanche hockey teams, spent $15.75 million last month to buy the 12,000-square-foot mansion on Cherry Hills Park Drive.

Kroenke is the son of billionaire Stan Kroenke, who owns both Denver teams as well as Kroenke Sports & Entertainment, the Los Angeles Rams football team, the Colorado Rapids professional soccer team, and the Colorado Mammoth, a professional box lacrosse team.

The younger Kroenke used 5780 Residence LLC to purchase the five-bedroom, seven-bath home. It has a 24-hour staffed guard gate.

In a document filed with the Colorado Secretary of State, 5780 Residence LLC, which was formed on May 21, listed The Kroenke Group’s in-house counsel, Jason Meyerpeter, as its registered agent. The document also listed the LLC’s address as 1000 Chopper Circle, the address of Ball Arena, the home of the Nuggets and Avalanche.

A records search shows eight addresses associated with Josh Kroenke, including 4040 E. Bayaud Ave. in Denver, purchased in 2012 for $1.2 million using the similarly named 5780 Investments LLC.

That LLC lists its address as 213 N. Stadium Blvd., Suite 203, in Columbia, Mo., which also is the address of The Kroenke Group, the family’s real estate arm.

The Cherry Hills Village mansion listed for nearly $17 million on July 30 and went under contract five days later.

The transaction is the most expensive on-market sale in Cherry Hills Village, according to REcolorado records.

However, the sale is dwarfed by former Denver quarterback Russell Wilson’s metro record-setting 2022 off-market purchase of nearby 10 Cherry Hills Park Drive for $25 million. Wilson and singer wife Ciara lost money when they sold the house for $21.5 million in March. Wilson now plays for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Haley Custom Houses built the house and BOSS Architecture designed it.

The mansion features a chef’s kitchen with two Caesarstone islands, two ice makers, four beverage refrigerators and four dishwashers. The butler’s pantry has warming drawers.

The dining room and stairway feature custom-designed chandeliers.

Other amenities include a state-of-the-art gym and one of the largest golf simulators in a private home in the United States.
