Some homes make an entrance, and some stop you in your tracks before you even shift into park. Set on 1.5 acres in the Village at Castle Pines, this breathtaking estate does both. The driveway crosses a gracefully arched stone bridge - nostalgic and picturesque -before continuing into a circular drive with rare space to park a crowd. Just beyond it all, mountain views peek through towering pines, hinting at the incredible outdoor living that awaits. Inside, the drama unfolds in all the right ways. A sweeping staircase rises in a graceful arc, setting the tone for the craftsmanship woven into every inch of this home. Soaring ceilings, newly refinished walnut floors, and more mountain views pull you in. The great room stuns with floor-to-ceiling windows, automatic blinds, exposed beams, and a cast stone fireplace flanked by custom built-ins. The kitchen features a Thermador cooktop, Wolf double ovens, two GE Cafe dishwashers, and a Sub-Zero fridge. A massive center island, copper farmhouse sinks, granite counters, and a walk-in pantry make it both showpiece and workhorse - plus a wet bar and an eat-in nook that overlook the pines. Upstairs, the primary suite is its own sanctuary with arched windows, a fireplace, Juliet balcony, and a luxe marble bathroom. The bonus room above the garage-with vaulted ceilings and cozy play nooks-adds a playful twist to the home's thoughtful design. Downstairs, you'll find a recreation room ready for game day or movie night, a wine cellar with smoking lounge, and a gym with steam shower and access to the spa and pool. Out back - that's where the magic settles in. Step onto the main-level deck with vaulted cover and built-in grill, or head down to the patio where the living gets even better. A heated saltwater pool, hot tub, fire pit, and outdoor fireplace all come to life beside the soothing sound of a custom water feature. This home isn't just where life happens-it's where it unfolds. // Qualified buyers only.
