Property Description Remarks: Beautiful 4-Level Home in the Ridge Location with Stunning Mountain Views. This 4-bedroom, 3-bath, 2-car garage home includes a fourth nonconforming bedroom that could easily be converted into a true bedroom by adding a dividing wall and closet, and removing the existing wall. Vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams greet you in the main-level living room, creating a warm and welcoming space. From the spacious and inviting dining area, enjoy breathtaking views of Pikes Peak—especially spectacular at sunrise. This is true Colorado living at its finest. Skylights fill the dining area with natural light and the elegant French Doors provide a walk-out to the wooden deck-perfect for entertaining and relaxing. The backyard is fully fenced and shaded by mature trees, offering privacy and a peaceful outdoor retreat. The lower level includes a cozy family room with a gas fireplace—ideal for movie nights or chilly Colorado evenings. BRAND NEW CARPET is installed throughout the home. This property offers a fantastic opportunity to add your own personal touch. While it's full of character and charm , it could benefit from a few updates and some TLC to make it truly shine. Located just minutes from Otero Park and its panoramic views of Pikes Peak, this home offers both natural beauty and convenience—close to shopping and dining in the Powers corridor, all nestled in a peaceful, quiet neighborhood.
