Featuring a large wrap-around porch and the enclosed outdoor patio with fireplace and built-in bench seating, this Victorian style home invites you to enjoy the wonder of the outdoors in Colorado Springs, no matter what the time of day.
The open style of this floor plan is ideal for entertaining family & friends with its unobstructed dining room, great room and kitchen design. Venture upstairs to experience the bonus room with French doors that open to a Juliet balcony with views of Garden of the Gods. The lower level boasts a recreation room with adjoining theater room separated by sliding barn doors, a fourth bedroom and a charming children’s play area with a wall made almost entirely out of glass. |

There are some places that resonate so deeply with us that we feel an immediate affinity with them, a contented sense of belonging that stirs our hearts. Understanding this, Karen Jones has gone the distance to touch our souls and inspire us with this one of a kind renaissance retreat.
Warm woods, painted moldings, salvaged details, wrought iron, neutral and brilliant colors and fabrics all create a rich and beautiful patina that makes this home perfect for hosting gatherings of family and friends. Whether it's the gorgeous kitchen with a mix of painted and stained cabinets that will make anyone rethink dining out and bring the party home, the exciting ESPN media room that will blindside any sports fan or the children's secret hideaway: the cadence of the interior is inviting and beautiful. |

We all have that place where we feel happiest, and if we are lucky, it is where we live every day, where our deepest roots are: our home. Karen Jones seeks to create just such a feeling in this beautiful model.
Crafted with a mix of materials, with no detail too small to consider, this home epitomizes life well-lived. Each room reflects an easygoing elegance with a mix of furnishings, fabrics, patterns and colors in an updated interpretation of Country French style. Adding to the warmth, comfort and unabashed beauty of this home is an open floor plan with areas for relaxing, entertaining, playing games or just bringing family and friends closer together. |

The environment in which we grow up has an enduring impact on our lives. The home, furnishings, mementos, art, garden, colors all leave indelible impressions on us. Karen Jones takes advantage of this expectation in designing the interior of this beautiful home.
Drawing inspiration from lazy sunny days vacationing on Martha's Vineyard and set in a landscape worthy of postcards, this sumptuous rancher spills over with a refreshed Craftsman Traditional mix. Walk room by room and be inspired by a palette of parchment, sage and cashmere gray against soft white moldings and wainscotings. This easy elegance provides a soothing backdrop for a gracious, yet comfortable lifestyle. |
