Situated in the sought-after Starbuck neighborhood—a private enclave known for its lock-and-leave lifestyle within the prestigious gated community of The Village at Castle Pines—this updated ranch-style home offers an exceptional blend of privacy, quality, and effortless living. Surrounded by towering Ponderosa pines and vibrant gardens, the setting is both serene and inviting. Unlike many patio homes, this property enjoys an exceptional lot that does not back directly to another residence, creating a more open and private setting. A design team thoughtfully reimagined the home in 2020 with a top-to-bottom $450,000 renovation. The bright, light-filled main level with dual fireplaces creates an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The remodeled kitchen features custom cabinetry, upgraded lighting, a beverage fridge, and premium Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, all complemented by quartzite countertops. Designed for both comfort and entertainment, the home is equipped with a $40,000 integrated surround sound system, enhancing both everyday living and hosting. The walk-out lower level expands the living space with a spacious family room featuring a fully outfitted bar, and seamless access to outdoor entertaining areas. The home has been lightly lived in, occupied only a few months each year, and presents in pristine, near-new condition. Residents of The Village at Castle Pines enjoy an unmatched lifestyle with access to three pools, a fitness facility, pickleball and tennis courts, and trails. The neighborhood is gated and staffed with 24/7 security and emergency services, including alarm monitoring tied directly to your home. Additionally, two of Colorado’s most prestigious, nationally ranked private golf courses are located within the gates. With its thoughtful updates, exceptional lot, pristine condition, and premier location within Castle Pines, this is truly a rare find.
