Dyer House

Douglas County

Located in Castle Rock’s Craig and Gould neighborhood, the Samuel Dyer House was built ca. 1875 with historic additions constructed through 1932. The house is an important example of local Queen Anne-style design, which tended to be simpler in design and detail than those found in other communities.

The large multi-parcel lot also features several historic outbuildings, including an ice house (ca. 1875), chicken coop/garage (ca. 1875 with 1914 addition), and barn (ca. 1890), a once common configuration of properties in Castle Rock’s early years. Over time, many of these larger properties have been lost when lots were sold and the outbuildings were removed to construct additional residences.
