Castle Rock is one of the most in-demand addresses on the Front Range, and Castlewood Ranch is one of the best spots in it. This two-story home puts you right in the middle of it all — with a layout that opens up the moment you walk in. The living room makes a statement with a pallet-wood fireplace surround, and LVP flooring flows through the main level and up into the spacious upstairs loft, a wide-open bonus space that works as a second living room, home office, or both. The kitchen is built to impress — stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, pendant fixtures over the dining area, and a sliding glass door that opens straight to the backyard, making it as good for everyday cooking as it is for entertaining. The primary suite features a barn door entry, walk-in closet, and double-vanity bath. Additional bedrooms share a full bath upstairs, a half bath on the main level handles guests, and the dedicated laundry room as well. Castlewood Ranch offers parks, trails, and Douglas RE-1 schools — Flagstone Elementary, Mesa Middle, and Douglas County High — with easy I-25 access to Denver and Colorado Springs. This is a short sale, subject to third-party lender approval. The right buyer gets a great home in a neighborhood people are competing to get into.
