5515 Darien Way, Colorado Springs, CO 80919

A captivating west side location with true panoramic views available only in Mountain Shadows, location is the lifestyle in this exquisite ranch home on over half an acre that backs to community open space. Illuminating the entire eastern side of the residence are views of an open space foreground and Ute Valley Park's distinctive bluffs in the distance, while the the front guest bedroom, dining room and main level office on the western front of the house enjoy peaking views of the shoulder of Pikes Peak looming from behind the foothills. Real hardwood floors provide lasting sophistication, and a remodeled kitchen with white cabinets and quality appliances present a sunny everyday functionality that's hard to beat. A walk-in pantry, five-burner gas range with retracting over-range hood and luxurious granite counters make entertaining a snap. A huge synthetic deck spans most of the rear of the residence. A wind-sensing electronic awning provides shade, and the deck is also accessible from the primary suite. The primary suite is spacious and private, removed on the northside of the home, with an oversized primary bath, walk-in closet, pretty floor tiling (with radiant heat), a walk-in closet and a Toto washlet. Downstairs are three spacious bedrooms, two more baths, a wet bar with fridge, a large recreation room, and a walkout. High quality trimmed windows frame the endless views in all directions, and a large unfinished storage area allows everything to be just in the right place. With an oversized garage accessing a fenced-in gardening area, a wainscot-trimmed main level home office, and a main level guest suite attached to a full bath, the only question is when does your next chapter begin?
