Completed in 2000, the red brick structure blends seamlessly with the environment, rising across four levels. It features a balcony and deck that provide stunning views of the surrounding landscape.
The ground floor includes a foyer and an electrical room. Moving upstairs, you’ll find the primary bedroom, a bathroom, and an office.
The third floor hosts the kitchen, living room, dining area, and provides access to the deck.
On the fourth floor, there is a second bedroom, an additional office, another bathroom, and a laundry area.
This top floor also opens up to a screened porch and the balcony.
The home’s design embraces nature throughout, with exposed rock and brickwork as recurring features. The interior decor is light and bright, complemented by wooden elements across the 2,400 square feet of living space.
An estate agent told Luxury Property News, “Coloradans have a deep love for the outdoors, and this home takes that passion to the next level by literally incorporating the outdoors into the living space.
“The house is perfectly in tune with nature, built around a 45-foot-high section of one of Colorado’s cherished 200-million-year-old red rocks, and is bordered on three sides by community open space.
“The current owners have meticulously updated the original structure, which was initially built by the previous owner and builder.
“This resort-style home flawlessly combines modern mountain living with the organic beauty of the stunning red rocks.
“Residents can enjoy a private ‘Garden of the Gods’-like setting, a picnic area, views of the Milky Way from the private hot tub, and a sense of peace and serenity that’s hard to find elsewhere.”
The property is currently listed for $989,900 by the Thayer Group at Keller Williams Action Realty in Castle Rock, Colorado.
