A sanctuary of possibility awaits you with this rare opportunity! 10-acres just minutes from town with easy access to I-25 and Downtown Colorado Springs, this fully rejuvenated ranch-style home invites you to step into a life where purpose and peace intertwine. Mature trees stand as sentinels, providing shade and privacy, while a private pond mirrors the sky and Jimmy Camp Creek whispers through the property, creating a serene retreat just minutes from modern life. Step inside to a welcoming den, a quiet space before the home opens into a bright and airy Great Room where large windows fill the entirety of the kitchen, dining, and living areas with natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. From here, step onto the expansive deck– a place to bask in sunlight, take in the beautiful views, and marvel at the land. The kitchen is designed for style and practicality, featuring a granite-topped island, stainless steel appliances, gas range, and new cabinetry. The main-level Primary Suite offers quiet refuge with an adjoining ensuite featuring a walk-in shower, double vanity, and walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a laundry closet complete this level. The recently finished basement is a space brimming with potential! With its own entrance and a unique glass garage door that opens for an indoor/outdoor experience, this level is ready for game nights, remote work, working out, entertaining, or hosting guests—whatever you envision, it's yours to create. Vinyl plank flooring extends throughout the space, which features a wet bar, a new bathroom, laundry, and ample storage. Outside, a charming barn with an attached garage stands ready—whether for horses, tractors, or hobbies that feed the soul—six lean-to sheds equipped with electricity and water offer shelter for livestock or equipment. Easy commute to Ft. Carson or Peterson AFB, this is a place to find refuge in nature’s beauty while pursuing your passions–to live where dreams take root.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
