Crafted for Golden Homes
General Contractor in Golden, CO
Golden is one of the most interesting places to build in the Denver metro. Historic character, foothills terrain, and a homeowner base that cares deeply about how a home fits into its surroundings. Anderson Construction has been doing this work since 2006, and Golden is a market that rewards doing it right.
What We Do in Golden
Built Around You
Does This Sound Like You?
Sound Familiar?
The homeowners we work with in Golden are usually in one of these places.
They own a lot on the hillside and want to build something that takes full advantage of it. Lookout Mountain and the surrounding foothills communities offer some of the best building sites in the Denver metro. The challenge is doing justice to the view, the terrain, and the setting. That takes a builder who plans carefully before building anything.
They have an older Golden home with great bones and a dated interior. Mid-century homes in Applewood, classic foothills properties up in the hills, homes with views that have not been renovated in decades. These are some of the best renovation projects we take on, and Golden has plenty of them.
They want to add space to a home they plan to stay in for years. Golden is the kind of place people put down roots. When the home needs to grow, the addition has to be done carefully so it fits the original structure and the neighborhood around it.
If any of that sounds like where you are, we should talk.

Building in Golden Requires Attention to the Details Others Miss
Golden sits between suburban Denver and the foothills, and the building context shifts depending on exactly where you are. City of Golden permits, Jefferson County requirements, hillside lot considerations, views that need to be protected, and neighborhoods with strong architectural character. All of it informs how a project gets planned.
We work through those details early, before money is committed and before plans are finalized. That conversation, about site, access, structure, and design, is where a good build begins. Golden homeowners who have done their research understand that. It is the reason they call us.
Experience That Delivers
Anderson Construction - Built for Projects Like These
Nearly 20 years of experience in luxury residential construction across the Denver metro and Jefferson County. Ben Anderson is personally involved in every project from first conversation through final walkthrough. We take on a limited number of projects at a time so nothing gets missed.
Golden rewards builders who pay attention. We do.
Do you work on hillside and foothill lots in Golden, like Lookout Mountain?
Yes. Hillside lots in Golden require extra attention to site access, structural planning, and material logistics. We assess all of that early in the process so the build plan reflects the reality of the site.
Is permitting in Golden different from other areas?
It depends on where the property sits. Some Golden addresses fall under City of Golden jurisdiction, others under Jefferson County. They have different processes and timelines. We know how to navigate both.
Do you renovate older and mid-century homes in Golden?
Yes, and we enjoy that work. Homes in Applewood and other established Golden neighborhoods often have strong architecture and great bones that just need a thoughtful renovation to reach their potential. Respecting the original structure while updating it well is something we take seriously.
What project sizes do you typically take on in Golden?
Renovations and additions typically start around $500K. Custom builds run higher depending on scope and lot. If you are unsure whether your project is in range, a quick conversation will tell you.
How do I get started?
Schedule a discovery call. It is free, takes about 20 minutes, and gives both sides a chance to figure out whether it is a good fit before anyone commits to anything.
