Colorado, El Paso County, Colorado Springs, USA

Updated stucco and stone ranch on a private, tree-canopied corner lot in University Park - near Austin Bluffs Open Space and the Pulpit Rock Park trailhead, a half-mile to the neighborhood park/playground and convenient to Academy & Union. A covered porch leads into the foyer, where engineered acacia hardwood floors run through most of the main level, with vaulted 9-ft ceilings and plantation shutters. The living room flows as an open great room, while the separate dining room offers a defined space. The remodeled kitchen (13x19) features custom navy maple cabinetry, quartz counters, subway tile backsplash, a farmhouse sink, double oven, gas cooktop with custom hood and an island with built-in appliance pantry. Plantation shutter doors open to the back deck (11x41), with unobstructed Pikes Peak views. The primary suite (15x16) offers a three-sided gas fireplace, bay-window sitting nook with private deck access, IKEA-organized walk-in closet and ensuite five-piece bath with dual vanities, soaking tub and glass shower. One additional bedroom, an arabesque-tiled hall bath, an office (12x13) and laundry with sea glass chandelier complete this level. The walkout basement offers a family room (20x36) with fireplace, radiant floor heat, a stunning wet bar with copper sink, and doors leading to the covered patio (11x43) with retractable shades, built-in gas fire pit and fountain - a private, tree-shaded escape. Off on their own are two bedrooms connected by a Jack & Jill bath with accessible shower. The mechanical room offers ample storage, a second laundry area with washer/dryer included and a tucked-away workshop (9x10) with tongue-and-groove pine walls. A finished, insulated 3-car garage rounds out the home. Recent updates: new roof and driveway, partial interior paint, remodeled primary bath, almost all newer Champion windows, new furnace/AC (2017) and upgraded electrical panel/subpanel. A wonderful blend of space, craftsmanship and location - come see it for yourself!
