Tucked behind the Dakota Ridge hogback, only about 3 minutes from Golden, is a hidden idyllic location that spreads out into vast open spaces and sloped foothills with city views. The few homes back there don't talk about it much, they enjoy their privacy and serenity with fingers crossed that no one discovers them. Every once in a while one of these comes up for sale, and now is that time. Abundant sunshine favors this meticulously maintained property, lending a golden glow to morning coffees on the new Trex deck. The canopy of deciduous trees in back shade the home from the summer heat while you enjoy time on your covered patio, tending your garden or creating in your workshop. The artfully designed interior speaks of big, conversational dinners at the large kitchen/dining area where there is plenty of counter space for your sous chef, 3 sinks, 2 ovens, and a 6 burner gas range to help you get all the food out on time. Retreat upstairs to the private sanctuary of the primary suite, where the calming views of Dakota Ridge and the foothills bring you back to the peace and privacy you enjoy daily. The unfinished basement provides opportunity to build in any type of room you find you need, whether now or in the future. Septic size is unknown at this time.
