About This Home

WELCOME HOME to this show-stopping 5 bed, 3 bath rancher in the sought-after Glen at Widefield. Built in 2021, this home isn’t just move-in ready, it’s been thoughtfully upgraded inside and out to give you the lifestyle you’ve been dreaming of. From the moment you arrive, the curb appeal speaks for itself: fresh custom landscaping, charming covered front porch, and a backyard designed for both relaxation and adventure. Step through your private back gate and you’re instantly greeted with trails and open space with sweeping mountain views. Inside, the bright open-concept floor plan and Pikes Peak views from nearly every window will steal your heart. The chef’s kitchen is the centerpiece, with a massive island, gas stove, stainless steel appliances, and elegant granite counters that make cooking and entertaining a breeze. The spacious main level includes a sunlit living room, dining area with walk-out access, and a luxurious primary suite featuring a spa-worthy 5-piece bath and walk-in closet. The finished basement offers endless possibilities — from a rec room to a home theater to the ultimate entertaining space with wet bar/kitchenette hookups already in place. Imagine hosting family gatherings, game nights, or movie marathons in your private retreat. Two beds and a full bath grace the bottom level keeping guest privacy top of mind. Step outside to a backyard oasis: custom rock fire pit, two storage sheds for all your gear, hot tub hookups ready for relaxation, and space that feels both private and expansive. Smart-home conveniences include Ring doorbell, Ecobee smart thermostat, and paid-off solar panels for energy savings. Every detail has been thought of — soaring ceilings, main-level laundry, auto sprinklers, central A/C, and so much more. All of this, plus a quiet cul-de-sac location, just minutes from schools, parks, shopping, and military bases. This home isn’t just a place to live — it’s a lifestyle upgrade. Why settle for ordinary when you can have it all?
