The hillside home at 752 Silver Oak Grove stands elegantly amongst the trees and right along the base of Cheyenne mountain, which rises in one’s view from the greenery like a stone castle. Located in the remarkable Broadmoor Resort Community, the stunning home has five bedrooms, five baths and is 8,030 square feet. The beautiful, private gated entryway to the community paves through a wooded oasis marked with 800 acres of dedicated open space and accented by birds eye views of Colorado Springs and
undisturbed vistas of the mountains. Just driving up to the home is an experience in itself, with beauty at every turn. The home is a gem dazzling in nature, with a covered porte-cochere entrance, alder double front doors, stucco exterior with stone accents and a concrete tile roof. The stone walkway, which trails around the home, beckons any visitor to explore the .85 acre lot to find a three-car garage, wrap-around patios on the main and upper levels, towering pines, and a serene waterfall
feature where one may sit, relax and maybe even catch a glimpse of a turkey or deer gently passing through. The entryway stars an expansive foyer with hardwood floors with travertine inlay below, and ceilings trimmed with crown molding above. To the left is a dramatic circular staircase with wood steps and wrought-iron railings that leads to the upper level. A magnificent crystal chandelier adds the finishing touch to this impressive entrance. To the right of the foyer, through alder French doors with
glass panes, is a handsome office with wood floors, crown moldings and a wall of alder built-ins to include a computer work station. The focal point of the home is the stunning great room that boasts a soaring peaked ceiling with wooden beams and an iron chandelier. This room also features a large stone wall that houses a built-in for a television and oversized gas fireplace. A floor to ceiling wall of glass with large French sliders leads out to the concrete wrap-around patio with stone
columns and wrought iron railings. This patio is also accessible from the dining room and from a second sliding glass door in the great room. The kitchen, which opens to the great room, is a cook’s dream with its walk-in pantry, large center work isle, hardwood floors, two sinks and upscale appliances. The kitchen is actually a Clive Christian luxury designer kitchen straight from England that is adorned by beautiful English oak cabinets, slab granite countertops, a professionalCONTINUED ON PAGE 3
