BEEN DREAMING ABOUT GOING OVER THOSE MOUNTAINS AND SETTLING IN AMONGST OUR EVERGREENS AND BIG WIDE OPEN SPACES? Well your search is over! Let's start with one of those rare 'over the rainbow' sorts of locations at the end of a paved cul-de-sac backing into that ICONIC JEFFCO OPEN SPACE-ELK MEADOW PARK. Here you'll have just a short jaunt to the Stagecoach trailhead that leads to the 1000+ acre open space and over 14 MILES OF TRAILS for HIKING, MOUNTAIN BIKING, and of course some BIRDING too! Yet its just a hop off the main drag access to manage all your errands, groceries, and pop-ins to some of Evergreen's best eateries and shops...AND... you'll hardly believe that from this back deck, with those unobstructed western views, where you can watch the elk graze while the sun sets, you're actually ONLY 30 MINUTES TO DOWNTOWN DENVER, 45 minutes to the DTC, and just under an hour to DIA. Connected to public water and sewer, and included in an HOA that manages snow removal, a move here is an easy transition from metro living or quite a lovely upgrade from a more rustic mountain lifestyle. If you can pull yourself away from the built in seating around the upper deck's built in fire pit, inside you'll find that our sellers just finished updating with ALL NEW INTERIOR PAINT, TASTEFUL FRESH LIGHTING, and a CLEVER RESTYLE OF THE KITCHEN with OPEN SHELVING and a FETCHING WALL OF TILE. You'll be hard pressed to choose a favorite spot between the dramatic river stone surround on the main floor fireplace, the soaring windows in the dining room, the easy deck access from the great room and BREAKFAST NOOK, the PRIVATE DEDICATED OFFICE, the vaulted ceilings in the owners suite, the pretty natural light in that 5 piece bathroom, or the cozy spot next to a delightfully charming green enameled fireplace in the WALKOUT BASEMENT because seriously....EVERY ROOM HAS A VIEW! Come take a look before this one is gone! Its truly a special place where city and mountain living come together!
