There is literally nothing else like it. One of a kind. Rare. Extraordinary. Pick your favorite words to describe this STUNNING renovated, secluded mountain lodge on almost 10 forested acres in the heart of Monument. Beamed tongue-and-groove ceilings, a newer composite deck and roof, and views all around of Pikes Peak, the Front Range, the Palmer Lake Star and the Ponderosa Pine forest, AND a 50’x36′ heated RV garage with adjacent level parking pad, all ready for your ultimate Colorado lifestyle. Completely isolated and private and NO HOA. Tinker with your RV and your toys in the garage, grow a garden, have all the farm animals you’re dreaming of or just enjoy the peace and quiet. You’ll have all the advantages of “city life” – close enough schools, shopping, and major traffic corridors, with all the advantages of the country life. You’ll feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere while being close to it all. Seriously – few people even know the house is back there, that’s how tucked away and remote it is. This home is it’s own subdivision, close to Woodmoor, but not part of the HOA so none of the covenants and conditions apply for ultimate freedom in how you choose to enjoy this property. You’ll be surrounded by local wildlife such as elk, deer and wild turkeys, who still consider this quiet retreat their home as well. Forest breezes and passive solar windows keep the home cool in the summer, and the main-floor wood-burning fireplace and lower-level woodstove keep it warm in the winter, pumping out so much warmth you may find limited need to turn on the gas baseboard heating system. Please see the attached list of all the improvements and upgrades this home has received in the past few years. There’s more than we can list here! Most importantly, this property has been a beloved, peaceful retreat – carefully maintained and respectfully upgraded to keep its’ heritage intact and it’s charm at the forefront. D-38 schools, close to I-25/Hwy 105/Hwy 83.
