225 Black Nine Dr

This single-owner Lennar Huntington floor plan in Castle Pines is thoughtfully maintained and sits less than half a mile from both American Academy and DCS Montessori Charter School. Built in 2018, this home stands out with a southeast-facing driveway for easier winters, an inviting front porch, and refreshed low-maintenance front flower beds with stone accents, boulders, edging, and layered plantings. The open main level is bright and functional, with upgraded light fixtures, expansive windows, wood flooring, and a comfortable flow between the living room, dining areas, and kitchen. The kitchen features granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a large island, butler’s pantry, and eat-in space, while the living room features a corner fireplace. A stylish main-level office adds a true work-from-home or study option, with custom board-and-batten-style wall paneling and smart lighting. The four bedrooms are located on the upper level, along with a spacious loft that’s perfectly suited for movie nights, games, or a second gathering area. The primary suite includes a five-piece bath and walk-in closet, while two of the secondary bedrooms offer practical separation with a jack-and-jill bathroom. The unfinished basement provides over 1,200 square feet of additional space, with future flexibility for storage, fitness, hobbies, or expansion. The three-car tandem garage adds another bonus: the third bay is currently set up as a functional workshop and hobby area with custom built-in shelving and a tool pegboard, while still offering potential use for a third vehicle. The backyard is low-maintenance, with a maple tree that adds summer shade and often draws visits from local deer. Nearby Elk Ridge Park, neighborhood trails, Castle Pines conveniences, and quick I-25 access round out a home that is polished, practical, and ready to enjoy. Additional features include a radon mitigation system installed in May 2022.
