Vaulted ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, granite counters, tiled baths, and oak cabinetry throughout, plus easy access to an expansive deck, strike a perfect balance between the home's interior and its magical setting. A gourmet kitchen features premium stainless appliances and a dumbwaiter for effortless moving of supplies from the attached 2-car garage. The primary suite is a luxurious escape offering tranquil views and deck access. An en-suite 4-piece bath and walk-in closet complete the primary suite.

The large third bedroom, bath with steam shower, multi-use room, workshop/storage, and utility room complete the lower level. Whether it’s morning coffee, twilight cocktails, or stargazing, this is Colorado living at its finest. Modern, efficient elements include closed-cell foam insulation, Low-E windows, a net-metered 32-panel solar array, resulting in low, low energy costs (all kWh are bankable), cove heating, an automated whole-house RO water filtration system, and an on-demand water heater. An insulated, detached 2-car garage & dedicated workshop with a pellet stove, offer space for hobbies, tools, & toys.
