Welcome to The Homestead - a highly sought after close in foothills community where peaceful acreage, wildlife, and convenience meet. Set on 2.5 usable acres, this beautifully improved ranch offers true main-floor living and a relaxed mountain lifestyle just minutes from amenities in Conifer. Since 2022, the home has undergone meaningful upgrades including a new roof, cement-board siding, exterior paint, new windows, and a garage addition. Inside, the kitchen was completely reimagined with new cabinetry and appliances, complemented by new hardwood flooring, refreshed bathrooms, and a practical mudroom foyer. A covered deck overhang extends outdoor living so you can enjoy the foothills views year round. The layout is already efficient and comfortable, yet buyers who dream of more space will appreciate the architectural drawings for a primary suite addition. Live in the home exactly as is with its easy flow, or move forward with the planned expansion and create a truly remarkable retreat. Equestrian friendly, the acreage offers a three stall barn and corrals, plus water rights for livestock and garden irrigation through Homestead Water Company - no private well to manage! Whether you spend mornings watching hummingbirds from the front porch or afternoons wandering the aspens as they turn gold each fall, the setting invites slow, restorative living. Outdoor recreation is moments away at Staunton State Park and numerous Jeffco Open Spaces, while Denver, DIA, schools, and shopping are all easily accessed via Highway 285. A thoughtfully updated Homestead property - move-in ready today, with room to grow tomorrow!
