The Neighborhood:
This spacious, beautifully appointed home is located in a pleasant residential neighborhood with sidewalk-lined streets on the east side of Colorado Springs. It’s just a stone’s throw from route 21, a/k/a Powers Blvd., providing easy access to the region’s most popular attractions. It’s also a local shopping and dining hub, where you’ll find every convenience within a 5-minute drive, including your choice of several supermarkets.
The greater Colorado Springs region is known for being a paradise for outdoors enthusiasts. Opportunities abound for hiking, biking, hunting, fishing, rafting, skiing, golfing, ziplining and more. Everywhere you turn, you’ll find a park, a trail, a view. Close to home, you’ll find:
High Chaparral Open Space (11 minutes)
Highest point in eastern Colorado Springs, great views of land and wildlife alike.
Sunset Mesa Open Space (9 minutes)
Includes a 3.2-mile trail with opportunities for spotting wildlife. Dogs on leash are welcome.
Pulpit Rock Park (11 minutes)
Open space preserve with 500 acres of land with paved and unpaved trails, plus city and mountain views.
The dramatic, diverse terrain of the region will keep you gasping – and reaching for your camera. Two favorite sights are the Garden of the Gods Visitor & Nature Center, home to ancient rock formations soaring 300 feet overhead (24 minutes), and Pikes Peak (“America’s Mountain”) standing at 14,115 feet above sea level (36 minutes).
But you won’t need your hiking boots, skis or waders for every hot spot in the area. Downtown Colorado Springs and the historic neighborhood of Old Colorado City (each about 20 minutes away) offer a tantalizing variety of restaurants, cafes, breweries, wine bars, museums, art galleries, theaters, shops and more.
