The back of the home opens up completely, vaulted ceilings, light pouring in, airy in a way that exceeds the price point. Sliding glass doors pull you out to a covered pergola, large deck, flagstone patio, and mature trees that give the yard real privacy. The gas grill stays. Evenings out here are easy. An open staircase connects the main floor to the upper level, where all three bedrooms are together. The primary has its own bath and walk in closet. Room to decompress. The other two bedrooms, currently personalized with removable murals share a bathroom at the end of the hall. Down a half flight off the main level, the lower level surprises in a good way. Above grade, full of light, large enough to be a real room. Not a dark basement. A third living space that becomes whatever you need it to be and changes as life does. A dedicated laundry room sits just off it, tucked away where it belongs. Trails and open space are close, the kind of access that makes Colorado living feel like Colorado living. Shopping, dining, and everyday errands all within easy reach. Zoned for Adams 12 Five Star Schools, one of the most sought-after districts in the metro.
