House with garden and terrace Sedalia (United States)

35 acres nestled between Castle Rock and Highlands Ranch where you feel like you're away from everything but only minutes away from everyday convenience. The views are the first thing that stop you in your tracks. City lights stretch across the horizon to the north, mountains rise to the west, and the valley below seems to change with every season. It's the kind of setting that makes you want to slow down, look around, and stay awhile. Inside, vaulted ceilings and picture windows fill the living room with light and frame the views beyond. The kitchen has a double oven, island, granite countertops, and walk-in pantry. Three fireplaces add warmth throughout the home, including one in the primary suite, where a recently updated five-piece spa bath delivers a true retreat-at-home feel. Downstairs, the walk-out great room opens directly to the backyard, creating an easy connection between the home and the land. The office is equally impressive, with built-in shelving, expansive views, and a secret room tucked behind it-a fun surprise that could become anything from a private hideaway to extra storage. Roam the acreage and discover something new around every corner. The 72x40 barn and workshop combo was built for work with a concrete floor for the workshop and tack room, a dirt-floor horse area, loft space, three oversized doors for easy access, electricity including a 220 outlet for welding and water inside. Fenced pasture, a clay shooting range, fire pit, garden space, and plenty of room to let the dogs run give you every reason to spend your days outside. The home's covered patio and deck span the back of the house, with room for a long table, a full crowd and all the gatherings you can imagine. An oversized four-car garage with additional storage keeps everything else tucked away. This is more than acreage. It's a place with room to breathe, room to roam, and room to build the kind of life that's getting harder and harder to find.
