NEW! MASSIVE “Ave Maria House” Gated Estate. PRIVATE 5 FORESTED ACRES. Park

Perfect for families. Make memories to last a lifetime. Massive estate inside and out ideal for families located next to Fox Run park. Airy 10-14ft ceilings throughout the home. Rocky Mountain views! Huge game room with pool table, foosball table, card table, game closet, and 70” surround sound TV screen. Exercise with connected Peloton bike and NordicTrac tread. 3 furnaces/AC units for optimal zoned climate control. Backyard grill with patio, lawn, large “beach style” fire pit to sit under the stars, multiple patios/outdoor gathering areas, and expansive meadow for sports. Kids love the outdoor playhouse. All ages enjoy the 30-foot climbing rope swing.

Major bonus unique to this home: it backs to 400 acres of green space, with miles of hiking trails, 100s of yards of sports fields, a creek, and two small lakes (one with a gazebo)- where you can keep an eye out for koi and turtles.

Amazing house for our extended family vacation
We had 11 of us for a week and had a wonderful stay. House is amazing and as advertised. All we needed to cook, est and relax. Close to town and family fun. Hosts were easy to work with and very helpful. Highly recommended.

USAFA Graduation Stay
Overall, our stay was awesome! The location of the home is one of the best features for getting to graduation events without traffic. The home nicely accommodates large families. The beds were comfortable. Although the types of beds didn’t match our adult children, there was plenty of space in the bedrooms to put air mattresses that we purchased. We appreciated the number of towels, extra pillows, and blankets for this reason. The large gathering areas were perfect for relaxing as a family. There is plenty of seating for meals and in the family rooms. The outdoor furniture was comfortable. We had many evenings around the gas fire on the back patio. We were able to grill and cook in a few days and found everything we needed. If you have young children, there is plenty of fun things to keep them busy: swings, rope swing, jungle gym, toys, and games. We enjoyed playing corn hole. There is a fire pit with wood provided if the weather conditions allow. David and Margo were easy to communicate with when we needed questions answered. I would highly recommend this home to create those special family memories.
