Tucked into Lakewood Acres near Applewood, this spacious ranch sits on nearly half an acre and offers something increasingly hard to find, space, privacy, and a true sense of retreat just minutes from the city. From the moment you walk in, the scale of the great room stands out. Vaulted ceilings, skylights, and oversized windows flood the space with natural light, while views of mature pines create a setting that feels more mountain retreat than suburban home. The space is generous and easy to live in, with multiple seating areas, a cozy bay window nook with built-in storage and a pellet stove, all flowing naturally into the dining area and kitchen. The kitchen is both functional and inviting, with generous counter space, abundant cabinetry, a gas range with pot filler, and views out to the backyard and covered deck. The main level includes three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a comfortable primary suite, along with the convenience of main floor laundry. Just off the garage, a heated bonus room offers valuable separation and flexibility for a home office, studio, or workout area. The unfinished basement provides excellent storage and future potential, with additional storage thoughtfully integrated throughout the home. Outside, a large deck with a covered portion ensures comfortable use in sun or rain, while the flagstone patio and expansive yard offer a mix of usable lawn and natural landscaping. A powered shed with loft space adds even more flexibility, ideal for hobbies, workspace, or creative use. Set back from the street with a long driveway, included water rights, and city utilities, this home offers a rare combination of space, light, and flexibility just minutes from Belmar, Sloan’s Lake, and Golden, with easy access to both the mountains and the city. It’s also a home that’s been quietly passed between family and friends over the years, cared for and held onto, which says a lot about what it offers.
