    What's special

    Range Price: $1,200,000-$1,400,000. Hidden from the street and tucked away on just over 1.8 acres, this custom hillside retreat offers the kind of privacy that you wondered if you’d ever find. A long private drive leads to a home designed to embrace its peaceful setting, where vaulted wood ceilings and walls of glass fill the living spaces with natural light and frame views that stretch for miles. The beautifully remodeled kitchen flows effortlessly into the main living areas and out to what may become the heart of the home—a covered outdoor living room overlooking the pool, spa, outdoor sauna and sweeping view. It's the perfect place to entertain, unwind or simply enjoy the quiet that makes this property so special. The thoughtfully designed multi-level floor plan offers exceptional flexibility, with bonus room and two bedrooms on the lower level that are ideal for guests, multigenerational living, home offices or creative pursuits. Owned solar, a three-car garage with EV charging, workshop, and abundant parking add everyday convenience. Bordering the natural backdrop of Kit Carson Park, the expansive lower portion of the property offers room to dream—whether imagined as gardens, recreation or future improvements, subject to buyer investigation and County approval. Where else have you found a property that offers this level of privacy, outdoor living, flexibility and room to imagine what's next?
