Spacious & spiffy, this 2400+ sq ft, 4-bed, 3-bath home just received all new paint inside & out in July 2023, & will be getting a new roof in the coming weeks. Right away you'll notice the covered, wrap-around front deck, perfect for morning coffee and wildlife viewing. Large rooms & abundant windows lend a feeling of space & lightness; almost every main level room walks out to the scenic lot. The dining space adjacent to the kitchen is easily large enough for the formal dining room to serve another purpose, such as a main level office, studio or workout space. Also adjacent to the kitchen is a 6'X7' room that could easily be transformed to the pantry of your dreams. Between the garage & entry into the kitchen is a 9'X23' laundry/mudroom space with it's own walk-out doors that is perfect for shedding muddy or snowy boots & jackets & storing your craft, school, climbing, pet or whatever supplies. Head upstairs to the generous master suite & indulge in a spa bath or an evening refreshment on your private balcony while you watch the sunset. 3 more spacious bedrooms & an additional full bath up here round out the warm & fuzzy family space. Originally heated solely by an electric baseboard system, the seller added a 95% efficient natural gas forced air furnace & venting in 2015 so you can have the best of both. All this set on over an acre of gently rolling, completely usable land with healthy conifers & views all around. The south-facing back deck is private & sunny; there's plenty of room back here for a nice fenced yard for your pets, there's even a doggie door right into the garage. Easily accessed from a level driveway off county-maintained roads within walking distance to the Cripple Creek Mtn Estates HOA clubhouse where you will find a heated indoor pool, 24-hour fitness center, game loft, playground, tennis/pickleball court, basketball court, 18-hole disc golf course, & picnic tables with grills.
