Hillside living with protected views on the edge of Castle Valley Ranch. This single-level home sits on the outer edge of the neighborhood, with sweeping views over Castle Valley Ranch and the Hogback range beyond. Out back, a spacious fenced yard borders BLM land, giving you an open, natural hillside instead of neighbors behind you. The south-facing driveway offers plenty of parking and winter sun. Mature trees and a covered deck make the backyard an easy place to relax. Inside, the open-concept kitchen features an island and breakfast nook and flows into the living area, which is anchored by a stone-veneer gas fireplace. A formal dining room, office, and powder room sit just off the main living space. The primary suite occupies the east wing with a walk-in closet and a bath with a jetted tub and walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms on the opposite wing share a full bath, and the laundry room connects the garage to the kitchen. Reintroduced to the market this fall move-in ready with major updates done: a new roof with 60-year shingles, radon mitigation, crawlspace waterproofing and new carpet in all of the bedrooms. Additional amenities include Energy Star kitchen appliances and washer/dryer (2023), central A/C, and a Tesla charger in the garage. Low HOA dues - only $70/year! New Castle is located just 15 minutes from the famous hot springs and white water river rafting in Glenwood Springs and 45 minutes to world-class skiing in Vail, Aspen and Snowmass Village. The Lakota Canyon public golf course is also just 5 minutes away. The local public middle and elementary schools are also nearby.
