Oil executive Stephen Rector is selling his home at 7 Village Road in Cherry Hills Village, which he and his wife spent years crafting. Rector, president of Rim Operating, a private oil and gas firm, and his wife Susan bought the 2-acre property at 7 Village Road for $3 million in 2007. They began working with an architect and spent two years creating the plans.

The Rectors wanted to give their home a Tuscan feel using wooden beams, stone, and brick. They…

SAN DIEGO — After making it through training camp in good health, with the exception of a few bruises, the Nuggets expect to have their full roster available for their preseason opener, coach David Adelman said. This will be Adelman’s first time managing an NBA roster through the usual series of five preseason exhibitions, which can present an awkward balance between needing reps and wanting to avoid injury. His plan for Saturday (7 p.m. MT) against the Timberwolves? In all likelihood, he’ll let his starters run, at least for a while. “I think because our schedule, the way it is…

More Americans are choosing to renovate their homes instead of relocating, boosting home improvement spending to $790 billion annually—a 60% increase from 2019 spending. A new report from Instant Roofer, using data from the U.S. Census American Housing Survey, reveals that Denver is the metropolitan area where homeowners spend the most on renovations. Denver homeowners spend $14,200 annually on home improvements, according to the report. “Denver has seen a significant rise in remote work opportunities over the past few years, naturally driving residents to invest more in their homes,” said Jacob Petrosky, Instant Roofer founder. “When you’re working from home…

Seven months ago, Brock Nelson had to say goodbye to the only NHL home he knew. It was a unique moment. Nelson was named the first star in what would be his final home game in a New York Islanders uniform, and everyone at UBS Arena knew it. The raw emotion, the cracks in his voice as 12 years and more than 900 games with one organization came to an end, was a special moment during his interview with MSG’s Shannon Hogan. So when Nelson says the transition to playing for the Colorado Avalanche five days later was tough, that…

Pepper Pong is still bouncing. The pingpong-pickleball hybrid will soon hit the shelves at Dick’s Sporting Goods and Scheels, nearly a year after it bagged $150,000 on ABC’s “Shark Tank.” When Pepper Pong lands in around 150 Dick’s and all 34 locations of the midwestern outdoor retailer later this month, it will be the first time the game will be available for purchase outside of the company’s website. “I didn’t know what to expect long term after the insane initial pop. People would say ‘It’ll pop and then it’ll hit a new plateau and hover there for a while,’” said Tom Filippini,…
