This home practically sparkles from the curb. You’ll need a minute to absorb its pristine nature—the pleasing front landscaping, pretty brickwork and a classic front porch—before heading inside, where it shines just as brightly with an open, light-flooded layout. At the home’s heart is a kitchen decked out in granite countertops, a lustrous tile backsplash, sleek shaker-style cabinets and a large in-sink island that is sure to be a natural gathering place. Sliding glass doors open from the kitchen to the covered back patio for meals or parties al fresco. Need to slip away for some work or hobby time? The main-floor bonus room offers convenience and great light as an office, study or playroom. The same calming neutral palette you’ll find here continues upstairs into the spacious primary suite, which has a walk-in closet and bright-and-light bathroom. A second-floor laundry room makes getting clean clothes to the three upstairs bedrooms easy. Admire partial mountain views, and head outside to nearby reservoirs and open space to take in full panoramas. Urban conveniences are never far away in Longmont or a straight shot on I-25 to Denver or Ft. Collins.
