In Cherry Hills Village, one estate stands apart — not just for its refined design, but for the legacy it carries. Commissioned by Yale professor of medicine and global peace ambassador Dr. Ghoulem Berrah and diplomat Marguerite Berrah, the residence reflects a fusion of intellect and enduring beauty.
To bring their vision to life, the Berrahs enlisted Pierre Fakhoury, the Lebanese‑Ivorian architect known for the Basilica of Our Lady of Peace in Côte d'Ivoire and Gabon's presidential palace . His latest commission — Tour F, a 421‑meter skyscraper under construction in Abidjan — is set to become the tallest building in Africa, further cementing his international acclaim.

A Home of Horizontal Elegance
In contrast to Fakhoury’s vertical masterpiece, this Colorado home embraces horizontal elegance: a walkout ranch nestled on a gently sloping acre framed by over 100 mature pine and spruce trees. From nearly every room, uninterrupted mountain views stretch westward, amplifying the property’s serene presence.
The home’s structure was designed with longevity in mind, incorporating solutions well‑suited to the region’s geological demands. Inside, the residence offers a seamless blend of historic character and modern updates — where sunlit rooms, bespoke woodwork, and contemporary comforts coalesce.
For two decades, the current owners have stewarded the estate with care, preserving its unique architectural identity while adapting it for today’s lifestyle. Outdoor living spaces invite quiet reflection and vibrant gatherings alike, surrounded by natural beauty and cultural resonance.
“This is not merely a home; it is a sanctuary of legacy, artistry, and soul — and now, it seeks its next steward.”
