- James Richards originally built the house in 1869 on 160 acres. He came to Colorado for gold but prospered as an entrepreneur. Forty years later, his widow sold the property to Jocelyn Manby, whose daughter graduated from Wheat Ridge High School in 1911. In 1926, successful Leadville merchant, Patrick Hart bought the house and spent 2 years extensively remodeling and landscaping the property. He died just 6 months after moving in. His widow remained there for 44 years before passing away in 1971 and leaving the Estate to the children. The City of Wheat Ridge purchased the property in 1976 and began extensive remodeling in 1981, highlighting the period restoration. A task force of residents was appointed to research all the details of the home's original decor including wallpaper, carpet, furniture and wood. Experts were enlisted and the renovation project totaled just over $203,000. The Richards-Hart Estate Mansion was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.
