Immaculate and extraordinary, set on the most spectacular 80 acres in Douglas County! Trails wind through rolling terrain, open meadows, and wooded ravines, uniting into a breathtaking landscape as inviting as it is beautiful. This pleasant, comfortable home is enhanced by the elegance of the architecture. A gated drive arrives at Thistle Hill Farm's circular courtyard and the stately residence with barns, a flex room, and garages on two sides. Under 15 minutes to Castle Rock and Parker. The entry hall is an architectural statement, passing through the home from east to west. It opens into the dining room and great room, where 20-foot ceilings and a full wall of windows bathe newly refinished natural wood floors in daylight. The dining room comfortably seats 14 to 16 guests while retaining an intimate atmosphere. The kitchen is designed for gathering and cooking alike, featuring a butcher-block island and a hand-painted tile backsplash that adds warmth and artistry. The private wing houses a serene primary suite, a study warmed by a custom fireplace, and an exercise room filled with natural light and woodland views. Gallery access connects the wing to the flex room, a distinctive space with block walls and polished concrete flooring that adapts effortlessly to a home gym, artist's studio, entertaining hall, or curated collection display. Outside, terraces and patios wrap every side of the home, an open invitation to enjoy the park that surrounds you. The west terrace highlights spectacular sunsets, while the kitchen patio with its wood-burning fireplace, awning, and herb garden is a lovely spot for a meal or a conversation day or night. With magnificent terrain and beautifully designed barns, this is a horse property perfect for most disciplines. On frosty winter mornings, you never have to set foot outside because the convenient layout allows indoor access to the heated stable. Inside, seven beautifully crafted stalls, a wash stall, four tie stalls, a large tack room, hay storage, and a bathroom with laundry await. A second barn adds four additional stalls, an indoor round pen, and additional covered hay storage. The existing outdoor arena offers an ideal site for an indoor arena, with another location nearby perfectly suited for an outdoor arena. A spacious two-bedroom apartment offers flexible accommodations for guests or long-term caretakers. The property includes both mineral and water rights, a valuable and increasingly rare asset.
