A hidden gem along Taylorsville Reserve offers a quiet, Colorado-style home with recreational options on a 3.72-acre lot.

The stone exterior blends with the wooden canopy as the main residence is located beyond the roundabout. Lantern-accented stone posts flank the paver-stone walkway to the stone portico entry. A solid wood door with side lights opens into a foyer hallway. An arched threshold opens into a great room, which flows into adjoining dining and sitting areas. Palladian windows flank a stone fireplace, which is the centerpiece to the spacious social areas. The windows allow panoramic views of the wooded backyard.

The porch has a cathedral ceiling with cross beams and a paddle fan.
