Set on nearly 7 pristine acres along the eighth fairway of the prestigious Castle Pines Golf Club, the architectural masterpiece at 3 Elk Pointe Lane in The Village at Castle Pines spans an expansive 13,800 square feet. The property, with its unmatched combination of engineering, luxury, and seclusion, is well on its way to becoming the highest-priced residential sale in the history of Castle Rock.<\/p>\n
The residence was brought to life by its owners, Lewis and Rebecca Kling, who collaborated closely with renowned architect Don Ruggles and custom home builder Montare to conceptualize and execute their ambitious vision. According to listing agents Stacie Chadwick and Justin Joseph of LIV Sotheby\u2019s International Realty, the estate remains entirely untouched in terms of renovations because the original design was executed with such meticulous precision 16 years ago that no updates have ever been deemed necessary.<\/p>\n
That extraordinary level of precision is immediately apparent the moment visitors step across the threshold. An 8-foot-wide grand gallery stretches 140 feet beneath soaring 21-foot ceilings, finished with rich walnut flooring and stately limestone pillars before culminating in a dramatic, floor-to-ceiling wall of glass that draws the eye directly toward the horizon.<\/p>\n
The placement of the residence itself was a feat of architectural and topographical calculation. The architect positioned the structure on its nearly 7-acre parcel with such exacting care that construction crews physically shifted the home by mere inches during the building phase to ensure that Pikes Peak would be perfectly framed through the exact center of the dramatic entry gallery.<\/p>\n
Throughout the sprawling floor plan, solid walnut serves as a unifying design element, carrying seamlessly through the flooring, interior doors, custom cabinetry, and intricate coffered ceilings. A striking two-story water feature accompanies a contemporary floating walnut-and-steel staircase, while the home boasts a grand total of 11 fireplaces, split evenly with seven located inside the residence and four positioned across the extensive outdoor living areas.<\/p>\n
Entertaining on a grand scale is facilitated by formal spaces such as the dining room, which comfortably seats 12 guests beneath a trio of glittering crystal chandeliers and opens directly into a temperature-controlled, 400-bottle wine room. Nearby, the gourmet kitchen is equipped with top-tier Gaggenau appliances, casual bar seating for six individuals, and a concealed television that rises smoothly into view at the touch of a button.<\/p>\n
Private family quarters are equally opulent. The primary suite serves as a luxurious retreat complete with its own private fireplace, a secluded outdoor deck, and an expansive bathroom featuring a sophisticated three-sided steam shower. Four additional lower-level en suite bedrooms each maintain private access to a deck or patio, seamlessly integrating with the roughly 8,000 square feet of outdoor living space that physically connects to every single room in the house.<\/p>\n
Beyond the standard living spaces, the estate incorporates a comprehensive suite of high-end amenities designed for modern comfort, entertainment, and safety. These include a private home theater equipped with a 108-inch screen, a dedicated fitness suite featuring an integrated sauna, and a secure panic room. Operational management of the home is streamlined through an advanced Crestron and Vantage automation system that oversees approximately 620 individual interior and exterior light fixtures.<\/p>\n
Despite the abundance of interior luxury, the property’s most famous and dramatic showpiece remains entirely hidden from casual view. Concealed beneath the main structure is an approximately 3,400-square-foot subterranean car gallery capable of housing roughly 10 vehicles. Automobiles are transported down to this subterranean level from the circular driveway above via a heavy-duty hydraulic elevator. The underground facility functions as a fully independent entertainment zone, featuring its own dedicated kitchen, bar, fireplace, and bathroom, complemented by Herm\u00e8s-inspired etched glass and an outdoor fire pit overlooking the golf course fairway.<\/p>\n
The surrounding grounds are just as meticulously curated as the interior architecture. A winding garden path leads visitors to a secluded, heated treehouse nestled among the trees, while a series of commissioned sculptures by acclaimed Colorado artist Jim Vilona are thoughtfully positioned throughout the landscape. The property\u2019s exceptional design pedigree has been widely recognized by industry professionals, having earned a spot as a 2016 finalist for Colorado Homes & Lifestyles Home of the Year, alongside a prestigious Grand Award for its landscaping from the National Association of Landscape Professionals.<\/p>\n
Residents living within The Village at Castle Pines also enjoy exclusive access to a wealth of high-end community amenities, including two championship golf courses designed by Jack Nicklaus, miles of scenic walking trails, and professional-grade tennis and pickleball courts. <\/p>\n
As the property searches for its next owner, listing agents emphasize that the rare convergence of top-tier engineering, artistic vision, absolute privacy, and bespoke amenities makes the estate a truly one-of-a-kind offering in the current luxury housing market\u2014one that would be exceptionally difficult, if not impossible, to replicate today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
