This is a rare opportunity to own a high quality, extremely well thought-out mountain contemporary home with a coveted live-able size.  Located in a pastoral setting with mountain views, this is the owner's carefully crafted dream home with every detail for comfortable living attended to. The list is long but includes radiant in-floor heat, passive and active solar, extra insulation for sound, Pella windows, solar hot water, underground utilities, water filtration system and much more.  This is perfect living with a main floor master, fabulous kitchen with expansive granite counters, breakfast bar, a huge pantry and big views, and a lofted great room with access to the lovely decks.  The lovely laundry room is right next to the kitchen, and there is a perfect little sun room nook for enjoying a good book. Downstairs you will find an additional master suite, two bedrooms, an office and family room. Watch the sunrise on your front patio with your cup of coffee and tend to the culinary herb garden already in place, or enjoy the large back deck for dinners and sunset views. In addition to the attached garage, you will love the separate detached garage and workshop space, with a large unfinished room above to create your own personal space or use for storage. The property is zoned for horses or other animals. The home is on public water, but you also have a well! Located less than a mile from Hwy 285, it's just a 5 minute commute to C-470 or head to the bus stop only 1/3 a mile away. Travel time to DIA is as little as 40 min.  You can also walk to the local coffee shop and trails! Inside and out, this home is top notch, and has all you need for ideal foothills living!
