Looking for incredible views? A peaceful mountain retreat w/ character & quirkiness? Maybe a greenhouse? This 2 story home in Rainbow Valley just might be what you’re seeking. Sitting on 2.63 acres, the home faces south w/ incredible moutain & forest views from the giant front deck & the large windows in the “front room” - which could serve as a dining/living combo. This is one of many options/dual functions here. Another is the large windows: they provide passive solar warmth + the gorgeous views. Designers certainly had open-concept living in mind w/ the front room & kitchen combination. Off the kitchen, find a laundry/mud room, leading to a bonus room/workshop. This appears to be a finished enclosed porch, as it's unheated. There’s extra living space (family room), w/ a wood stove & 2nd entrance. Two bedrooms, full bath, & a ¾ bath round out the offering on the main level. Upstairs find an enormous primary bedroom, w/ walk out, & ready for a 2nd stove. Sneak some mountain views from the windows there. Downstairs, you’ll find: built-in beds in the 4th bedroom & a bonus room (5th bedroom? study? storage?), an “office”, rough-in for laundry (or sink? Or a kitchenette?), a small family room, & the “coal room”- it's unfinished & houses the furnace an extra coal/wood stove + storage, with exit. Pet friendly w/ pet doors & fenced area in the back. Outside find the greenhouse, a shed for wood storage (& a glass section used for drying wood/plants), a small pond, & loads of geological & flora finds, including what looks like gold dust! There really may be gold in them thar hills. In Rainbow Valley all the homes have a cistern. This one may be the largest in the area, boasting a 2600 Gal concrete one! Lastly, if you’re seeking recreation, you’ll find much to explore. Pikes Peak, Crags, Raspberry Mountain, Mueller State Park, Dome Rock, Horsethief Park trail are all minutes away.
