A once in a lifetime, David Langley-designed, fully-furnished mountain refuge offers elevated living with the convenience of city access as downtown Colorado Springs is a mere 30 minute drive and The Broadmoor Hotel 35 minutes. Near prized trout streams, national forest and hiking, the simplicity of lifestyle is as accessible as a longing gaze to Pike’s Peak, viewable from practically every window, patio and deck. Rich in character, the residence is even better in person.
Step inside the massive wooden door and be embraced by the majesty of the great room: massive exposed beams, European-inspired iron chandeliers, and a soaring 14’ stone fireplace. Overlooking the space is a 3D relief locally crafted iron railing, adding an inspired touch. Two sliders open out onto the synthetic deck. From here a commanding view of Pike’s Peak is enjoyed year-round, and entertaining is a snap with a gas line for grilling and a roller shade for lingering.
The entertainer’s bar spans 17 feet and features a wine fridge, icemaker, and refrigerator—all topped with leathered granite. Nearby, the kitchen is a chef’s dream, designed by a culinary school-trained owner with three French schools under her belt. A two-panel pocket door conceals the kitchen when needed, while the adjacent turreted hearth room offers cozy winter moments with built-ins and a gas-log fireplace.
The primary is all by itself on the main level. With a private access to the rear deck and a sensational bath high-lit by a soaking tub and tumbled stone tile shower, and completed by LED-trimmed medicine cabinet mirrors. The oversized closet offers layers of storage and opens into the main level mudroom and laundry.
Take the wood-trimmed elevator to the upper level where another bar provides for entertaining and friends will linger through sunset on the covered veranda. The library has built-ins galore, abundant lines of sight, and the charm of the ceiling detail embraces the space with a sense of permanence and class. Guests will love the lower level, complete with three bedrooms (including a charming bunk room), a second washer and dryer, plus a kitchenette with dishwasher—ideal for extended stays.
This home is more than a place—it’s a feeling. Furnishings are included, making it turnkey and ready to enjoy. Elevated living awaits.
