About 4883 Apollo Bay Drive
Fall is covered-deck season, and this Highlands Ranch home has a big one, right off a kitchen with granite counters, a gas range, stainless appliances, an island, and a pantry. Grill out while the evenings are still warm, then head inside to the gas fireplace when they aren't. Vaulted ceilings open up the front living and dining room, and the main-floor bedroom with a closet works as a guest room or an office with a door that actually closes. A half bath and a mudroom laundry with a new washer and dryer are on this level too. Upstairs, the primary suite has two walk-in closets and a five-piece bath with a soaking tub and double sinks, plus two more bedrooms and a full bath down the hall. The finished basement adds a rec room, two nooks sized for a rowing machine or a craft table, and a half bath. With two egress windows and a closet already in place, it's set up to become a fifth bedroom whenever you need one. Out back, low-water turf, a storage shed, and a freshly stained privacy fence mean the yard asks very little of you. The oversized two-car garage has built-in cabinets and a new opener. One thing the seller loves that you won't think about until the first snowfall: the driveway faces south, so the sun does a lot of your shoveling. Quarterly HRCA dues of $174 cover all four rec centers. Eastridge, less than a mile away, has a climbing wall, sand volleyball, and indoor and outdoor pools. Southridge, also under a mile, has a golf simulator for the months the courses close, and Westridge has cold plunges and an infrared sauna. Nixon's Coffee House (mountain views included), Egg Harbor Cafe, Pho Vy, King Soopers, Whole Foods, and Hound Hill Dog Park are all within about a mile. Arrowwood Elementary, Cresthill Middle, and Highlands Ranch High School are each about a mile away. Come see the floor plan people keep talking about.
