This coveted Highlands Ranch High Gate neighborhood ranch-style home with finished basement lives large on a copious 10,000 square foot corner lot just a stone's throw from Cougar Run Elementary and park. Formal, while maintaining a formidably comfortable vibe, this home and its spaces perfectly lend to contemporary lifestyles. Light pours into the big foyer from floor to ceiling picture windows at the opposite end of the large living room. A custom fireplace/media wall separates living space from the sprawling kitchen. Whether cooking or keeping the cook company, there is space to spread out at the island or the kitchen dining table. For holidays or events, there is also a "formal" dining room with built-in storage and buffet. 3 bedrooms round out the main level, including a large primary suite with 5-pc bath, soaking tub, separate WC, double sinks and walk-in closet. 2 additional bedrooms share a full bath on the main floor, too. The center bedroom is currently set up with double desks for WFH. Laundry (new W/D) is conveniently located at the garage entry and doubles as a mudroom. Downstairs, the professionally finished basement flows beautifully, with an open, comfortable, secondary living room that includes custom, built-in shelves. Beyond the den is an additional conforming bedroom with adjacent bathroom. A well-equipped workshop awaits your weekend warrior pursuits, replete with storage solutions and ready to be custom configured for your own hobbies. Oversized garage includes depots for recycling/trash cans, loads of shelves, smart storage solutions and an ingenious bike pulley system. Multi-leveled backyard patios with planters and retractable awning are set for summer BBQs. The side yard has excellent elevated and enclosed garden beds, the blank canvas to create a pollinator oasis. Quick walk or drive to many food stores. Shopping, golf, dining, trails, parks and the 4 recreational centers with pools, fitness, tennis courts and community events all nearby.
