Designed by Babcock Pace, (now Babcock Design), this custom built, contemporary home in Federal Heights takes full advantage of views of both the city and surrounding hills.

The 4,396 square foot residence functions beautifully with the owners’ suite and home office on the main level; however, the office could easily be configured into a bedroom, giving you five in all. The primary bedroom comes with its own walk-in closet and fireplace with sitting area in addition to access to one of two wrap-around decks.

The kitchen is clean and light filled from generous skylights.

There’s a formal dining area with views. Four fireplaces will keep you cozy and warm all winter. The laundry room comes with plenty of space and doubles as a mudroom off the garage. The lower level sits elevated from the landscape and boasts floor to ceiling windows.

Our friend and broker, Brian Tripoli, came by for a visit and offered this about the home, “What I love about the home is how thoughtfully designed it is, how the bedrooms as well as the formal living and dining take full advantage of the southern exposure with its array of windows.” Ditto. As for the land, the quarter acre lot is filled with trees. There’s a path leading to a simple bench– a favorite feature of ours. It’s the perfect spot for contemplation when nature trumps neighborhood.

Now that we’ve moved past a few details, let’s get to the heart of it: this house just feels good.

It’s comfortable, stable, and well proportioned. But in order to experience that, you have to come see it for yourself.
