About This Home

Welcome to the Gingerbread Ranch—an impeccably upgraded cabin on 5 acres of horse-ready land, complete with a stable and corral. Once a seasonal hideaway, this home has undergone a complete transformation and now offers modern comforts in a serene mountain setting.

Start your day on the expansive 500 sq ft deck, where you’ll take in breathtaking views of Pikes Peak and Sheep Mountain. Wildlife often wanders by, making every morning feel like a nature show from your own backyard.

Inside, you’ll love the warm, vintage charm paired with high-end upgrades. The wood burning stove in the main living area paired with the wall of windows overlooking the view creates an incredible and immersive mountain experience. The brand-new kitchen features soft-close cabinets, high end appliances, granite countertops, and heated floors. The fully renovated bathroom includes a sleek new vanity, walk-in shower, and more heated flooring. Comfort is top of mind with central air conditioning, a brand-new furnace, and baseboard heat for year-round enjoyment.

Outside, you'll find a concrete courtyard, great for grilling and outdoor dining.

For horse enthusiasts, this property is a rare find—community water means no concerns about well production, making it easier to care for your animals. The land is level, usable, and perfectly set up for equestrian living.

Located on a quiet cul-de-sac, the home combines rural tranquility with resort-style amenities. Enjoy access to an HOA pool, tennis courts, pickleball, basketball, disc golf, fitness center, and clubhouse. Outdoor adventure is right at your doorstep with nearby trails and national forest, and you're just 11 minutes from Cripple Creek, 1 hour from Colorado Springs, and under 2 hours from top ski destinations.

This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. Call today to schedule your private showing.
