Nestled in the picturesque bluffs of Castle Rock's Montaine community, this impeccably maintained and light-filled ranch home is just steps away from the communal amenities, and minutes from Colorado's finest hiking/biking trails and the quaint shops and restaurants of historic downtown Castle Rock! Offering multiple areas for gathering and entertaining, this elevated Brightland home built in 2023 has been upgraded far beyond the competition, featuring a well appointed luxury kitchen with a sizable quartz island that seats 6, 42" cabinetry with crown molding and soft-close doors, pull out drawers, and a separate prep kitchen area with a large pantry, prep sink, and second dishwasher. The Primary suite is light, bright, and spacious, and the enormous closet, which connects directly to the laundry room (washer, dryer, and cabinetry included!) has room for an accessory island or ottoman. The Primary bath has a step in shower, and is equipped with grab bars. The secondary bedrooms are connected with a Jack and Jill full bath, and a separate powder room upon entry completes the main floor living space. The finished basement features 9 foot ceilings and a huge family room (plumbed for a wet bar), another spacious bedroom with walk-in closet, 3/4 bath, an additional fully shelved walk-in closet, and tons of unfinished square footage to re-imagine as your own unique space! Recent upgrades include several custom Hunter Douglas remote blinds (operational from your phone!), designer lighting, fully finished garages with painted drywall and epoxy floors, custom window well covers, and a fresh exterior paint job. The home backs to a green belt, with the front yard featuring gorgeous xeriscaping with irrigated plantings, showcasing the curb appeal of this one of a kind, low maintenance home. The covered back porch includes a ceiling fan and mount for an outside TV, and flows into a lush sprinkler-equipped back yard. Why buy new when you can have all of these next-level extras?!
