This home is located in The Summit at Vista Mesa - a hidden gem in the N/E on a large corner lot that backs to a cul-de-sac—great for kids or block parties. Just steps away is one of four neighborhood trailheads leading to Sunset Mesa Open Space, which connects to the Briargate trail system and to one of the highest points in all of Colorado Springs, offering panoramic views of the city, Pikes Peak, and the Garden of the Gods. The spot where neighbors gather to view citywide fireworks on the 4th of July. This spacious 5-bed, 3.5-bath classic 2-story home with a 3-car garage is move-in ready - designed for comfort, entertaining, and a warm Colorado mountain-style feel.

The main level includes formal living and dining rooms with crown molding, a cozy family room with a brick fireplace, and an updated kitchen with alder cabinetry, granite countertops, SS appliances, a generous island, a pantry, and hardwood floors. The kitchen opens to the family room and flows into a fully enclosed sunroom—hot tub ready and complete with surround sound. This space spills into the beautifully landscaped, fenced backyard with two patios, perennials, blooming bushes, and mature trees—perfect for bringing the outdoors in. Upstairs, enjoy vaulted ceilings in all bedrooms, including three spacious secondary bedrooms and a hall bath, plus a private primary suite with mountain views, a 5-piece bath, a walk-in closet, and a charming window seat. The finished basement expands your living space with a massive rec room with built-ins, an additional bedroom, a full bath—ideal for guests, teens, office space, or multi-generational living—and generous storage.
