15480 Dinosaur Ridge Road

Awaken to sweeping views of the foothills and step onto the primary suite balcony to see the sun illuminate the city to the east. A quick change into riding gear and out of the garage you head down the block toward the trailhead on a custom built Santa Cruz Hightower for a joyride among your favorite trails. After several miles, a solid sweat, and burst of adrenaline, you settle onto the seemingly limitless main level patio to enjoy a cup of coffee before a stop in the steam shower and heading off to work in a black on black Ineos Grenadier...so reminiscent of the Land Rover Defenders of old. At the end of a productive day at the office, a sense of peace, calm, and tranquility envelope you like a warm blanket as you drive through the hogback and into Willow Springs - one of the best kept secrets on the Front Range. Just moments beyond, a brief stop to hit a few balls on the range and have a beer with friends at Red Rocks Country Club - effectively an extension of home - before the short drive down the hill into the Montane neighborhood. Slowing to say hello to a few neighbors, who have grown to be lifelong friends, you eventually reach the end of Dinosaur Ridge Rd and take in the view of your home, perched privately atop 2.5 acres and framed by a gorgeous sunset and Red Rocks Amphitheater. It is a spectacular summer evening - your family decides to spend the evening lounging on the patios, playing in the perfectly manicured backyard, preparing a steak dinner on the outdoor grill, then enjoy one another's company around the fire pit. The waterfall provides ambiance along with the lights beginning to charge up the atmosphere at Red Rocks just up valley while the Avett Brothers harmonize amongst themselves in one of the world's greatest concert venues. Home is your sanctuary, your temple, your most treasured space. And as each day comes to a close, you're evermore filled with gratitude at the knowingness that 15480 Dinosaur Ridge is truly your own personal wonderland.
