SPOTLIGHT: THE BECKY GLORIOD PARTNERS
Treed serenity, mountain views and expansive open floor plan on 2.5 acres in Monument SPONSORED FEATURE
Feel inspired as you meander through the rich countryside and tranquil forests leading to 17540 Colonial Park Drive. Located in Higby Ranch, the home is beautifully positioned on 2.5 acres, taking advantage of the expansive treed privacy and phenomenal Pikes Peak and Front Range views. Though you’re completely immersed in nature, you’re also in close proximity to I-25 and Baptist Road. You can truly have it all — and then some — at this five bedroom, four bath ranch style home with supreme main level living. The home is priced at $875,000.
The driveway winds majestically through the treed front yard until you reach the stunning 5,676 square foot home. Stepping out into the fresh air, you are taken by the smell of pine, the sweet bird songs and the soothing sounds of bubbling water from the property’s two fountains. Beckoning you to explore, the property connects to multiple walking and biking trails. The exquisite stone and stucco exterior is topped by a tile roof. An oversized threecar garage is conveniently accessible from the circular drive. Walking through the elegant and
welcoming stone arched entryway and into the foyer you are immediately graced by unsurpassed Pikes Peak views straight ahead through large picture windows. Settling back into the space, you notice the brilliantly designed flow of the open floor plan. To the right of the foyer is an office, followed by the master retreat down the hall. To the left, the ultimate entertaining space awaits … the formal dining room and an amazing great room that opens to the kitchen and casual dining. The formal dining room boasts a cove ceiling with interior crown molding
and a built-in cherry buffet with slab granite countertop. An arched opening allows for visibility into the great room.
