Back on the market, no fault of the home. Nestled in the quiet, prestigious Fossil Ridge subdivision, 7042 Ruidoso Drive is a home defined by its views and inviting character. The property sits on a premium lot that backs directly onto the Highland Meadows Golf Course and 100 acres of protected open space, ensuring that your backyard feels like an endless extension of the Colorado landscape, complete with mountain peaks and city lights. Inside, the home is a masterclass in ranch-style design. The heart of the residence is a massive great room where 15-foot ceilings and rich hickory floors create an atmosphere that is both grand and welcoming. This space flows naturally into a gourmet kitchen outfitted with alder cabinets, slab granite counters, and a gas cooktop- a layout built for hosting. With over 4,500 total square feet, including six bedrooms and a walk-out basement, the home offers a massive amount of versatile living space without ever losing its cozy, high-end feel. Practical luxury is found in the details, from the stone and stucco exterior and the three-car garage to the northwest-facing deck designed specifically to capture the golf course and mountain vistas in the distance. It's the kind of home where you can start your morning watching the golfers from the deck and end your evening by the fireplace, all while tucked away in one of Windsor's most sought-after neighborhoods. Immaculately cared for and ready for you now.
