From the street, you'd never guess. Then the front door opens, and Pikes Peak is right there, framed by 12-foot sliding glass doors. This ranch-style home sides to a greenbelt and backs to open space, so nothing stands between you and views of Pikes Peak, Devil's Head and Castle Rock. Well-maintained and improved at every turn, it still feels new and now offers 5 bedrooms, 3 on the main floor plus an office, and 2 more in the freshly finished garden-level basement. Nine-foot ceilings elevate the light-filled main level from the entry to the great room, where dark wood beams and a gas fireplace flanked by built-ins add warmth and character. The 3-panel sliding glass door opens wide, joining the great room and covered deck with the views as the backdrop. A professionally landscaped yard and concrete paver patio sit below. The kitchen centers on a huge quartz island with breakfast bar seating, surrounded by black cabinetry against a white tile backsplash, stainless appliances, and a wet bar with a JennAir® wine cooler made for hosting. The eat-in nook has space for a large table with a window drawing in light and views, and around the corner is a pantry, laundry room, and mudroom off the 3-car tandem garage. The spacious primary suite shares the mountain views, with an ensuite behind sliding barn doors. Luxury looks like dual sinks plus seated vanity, a soaking tub, a glass-enclosed tiled shower, and a walk-in closet with custom organization. Two secondary bedrooms share a dual-sink hall bath with a separate water closet and tub/shower, and French doors open to the office. Downstairs, a light-filled recreation room catches distant mountain views. One bedroom has its own ensuite and two walk-in closets; the other works as a home gym, and a large storage room adds room to grow. Minutes from I-25 with easy access to Castle Rock and Castle Pines, it feels like an escape without being far from anything.
