About this property
Charming Home quiet neighborhood lovely back yard 5 min from Garden of Gods
Location, location, location!! Wonderfully quiet and friendly neighborhood; walking distance to the Garden of the Gods and Glen Eyrie Castle; 15 minute drive to the Air Force Academy, Cave of the Winds, Olympic Museum and Training Center; hiking and biking galore; and two and a half hours to Monarch Ski Resort and Monarch Dog sled Rides. One hour to Royal Gorge and world class rafting, fishing, and whitewater rafting on the Arkansas River.
Enjoy the beautifully appointed interior of this custom home and the lovely patio and garden, lawn area and large deck (with propane grill). There are four solariums, quiet and set apart as reading rooms and rooms of inspiration (one is an artist's studio). When not relaxing by the fountain, enjoy a round of horseshoes or corn hole, or lounging in one of the shaded hammocks. With four air-conditioned bedrooms and three full baths this home comfortably sleeps 8. (The fourth bedroom doubles as a TV room). The Master Bedroom has a small child's bed at the foot of the bed, and another bedroom has a crib. High chairs are also available. There is a laundry room and a loft that is outfitted as a children’s play area.
The kitchen is equipped with large and small appliances and is fully stocked. There is an island with a butcher block top and bar stools. The dining room has a table that seats up to 8, and expanded seats up to 12. The patio table on the deck seats 6. There are two large screen TVs, one in the study and one in the master bedroom and there is Century Link high speed internet and Dish TV.
Manitou Springs, Old Colorado City and the Cog Railway are 15 minutes away. Opportunities for hiking, biking, and jogging abound. You can hike, drive or take the cog railroad up Pike's Peak. In the winter enjoy downhill skiing at Breckenridge, Monarch, Keystone, A Basin etc. Cross country skiing and dog sledding are available at Monarch Mountain. White water rafting is available at many locations with-in a couple hours drive, along the Arkansas River. The Royal Gorge, with many thrill activities, is only one hour away.
Come and enjoy a relaxing retreat in Eden 2. It will make a great home base for Air Force Academy events or any excursions in Colorado Springs or as a gateway to the mountains, on highways that are much less crowded than Denver.

About the host
Hosted by David Hathaway
We have been married for 50 years and lived for 13 years in New England, 20 years in Canada, and two in China before coming to Colorado in 2006. We have four married kids and 15 grands.
Our family gathers at our home for holidays and regular get- togethers. It is a home filled with wonderful memories.

Why they chose this property
This was our dream home because of its wonderful design, fabulous yard and especially the location in a quiet neighborhood near Garden of the Gods. We wanted a home that was also a retreat for us, our family and the many guests we entertain. The 15 foot high brick wall in the living room provides a perfect gallery for our paintings from around the world. The French doors throughout the house give it charm and grace. The gardens, lawns, fruit trees give us a playground for our family.
What makes this property unique
Our quiet neighborhood and proximity to the front range (Pike's Peak) affords hiking, biking, and other adventure opportunities right out the front door. We have four grandchildren that live across the street, and every weekend morning they burst into our kitchen for "Papa waffles"! Our yard, patio and deck always provide an oasis from the sun and seclusion from neighbors because of the multitude of trees on the property!
