About This Home

As of February 2020

Only 1.8 miles from Hwy 68 sits this private & serene property with stunning views of Corral de Tierra & Castle Rock. As you drive up, you are welcomed by whimsical sculptures thru out the entry gardens; this property is gorgeous & definitely not a 'cookie cutter' estate. Single story & updated, the interior is bathed in tons of natural light from the many French doors & windows that let the warmth of this sunbelt location inside. As you walk in, you'll immediately fall in love with the tall ceilings & open concept of the kitchen~dining~living rooms. The master suite not only has a fireplace & sitting room but also boasts 2 large closets. The icing on the cake is a spacious bonus room with en-suite bathroom & private entrance. The views from the back wrap-around deck are inspiring & the +/-1.4 acre lot means loads of space to roam & play. Add in radiant heat, a shared well with only 2 other houses & hot tub & you have yourself a one-of-a-kind estate!
