6000 sq ft Estate Home on 3 Acres near USAFA in the Rockies

Our 6000 square foot estate home is sited on three acres in the Colorado Rocky Mountain foothills, and has 360 degree views from its many panorama windows. Raspberry Mountain, Mount Herman, and Elephant Rock are among the sights. Deer and foxes meander through the property's fields and woods. The neighborhood is very quiet, and all the neighbors have custom houses on at least 2.5 acres.

The huge upstairs master suite has a gas fireplace, his and her sinks, walk in closet, and a two person jetted corner window tub. Relax in the suite’s turret sitting area with a cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening, looking out several miles to the east. A second master is on the main level, perfect for family members who might not want to be on the second floor. There are two other spacious upstairs bedrooms.

Downstairs, oak floors cover the living room, formal dining, family room, eating area, and kitchen. The spacious family room, open to the kitchen and bay window breakfast area, has a raised stone wood burning fireplace. The living room features a vaulted ceiling with wooden beams and great mountain views out the huge windows. The formal dining room seats eight. The gourmet kitchen has slab granite counter tops and an island with all new stainless steel appliances, including two ovens. We have a three car garage, large deck with a gas grill, and unfinished walkout basement.

Restaurants, grocery stores and shops are five minutes away, and the Air Force Academy is a 10 minute drive. Pike National Forest and Monument Preserve are within walking distance; both have many hiking, biking, and horse trails.

As our 70 plus all 5 star reviews demonstrate, everyone has loved it here, and there are many 'must-do' activities nearby, including visiting the U.S. Air Force Academy and Garden of the Gods (both free). A little known adventure is to take a half hour country drive to the Perry Park Country Club area, which has stunning rock formations - almost as majestic as those of Garden of the Gods. Take a picnic lunch, as there are no restaurants. Check out the photos on the country club’s web site. Also, 2000 acre Sandstone open area, on the way to Perry Park, was recently bought by Douglas county and has great hiking trails.

Retreating to our comfortable house after your day's activities will be very relaxing. Come visit!
