The story
Peaceful, private and just 10 minutes to downtown Castle Rock, this 1966 single-level home sits in a park-like setting on two parcels totaling 3.96 acres. Mature landscaping wraps the property with Japanese maples, evergreens, garden space, paver patios and winding stone paths leading to a small pond and fountain, sweeping lawns, fruit trees and a seasonal creek at the back of the property. Inside, the 3 bed, 1.75 bath home is filled with windows that look out to the beautiful yard from nearly every room. The living room centers on a stone wood-burning fireplace, while the family room offers a wood-burning woodstove, wood paneling, built-in shelving and a slider to the large deck with built-in benches. The kitchen features stainless appliances and hardwood floors that easily flow into the dining room. Cedar-paneled bedrooms add warmth and character. Baseboard heat plus ductless heat pump for comfort. Move right in, but ready for a few updates of your own. A new septic tank was just installed - cross that big ticket item off the list! An attached 2-car garage serves the home, and the second parcel, with its own address, features a 768 sq ft garage/shop with electricity, well and septic (buyer to verify all uses of the property and utilities with the county). All this in the county...and it's only 11 minutes to I-5. Schedule a showing today!
