1680 Oakwood Drive

There’s a certain kind of quiet you can only find in the trees - the kind where time slows and the air feels different. At the end of a cul-de-sac with a long, winding drive, tucked among the pines, sits a place that feels like it’s been waiting for you. With nearly an acre of forested grandeur, it’s close to town and convenient to all that Monument proper has to offer, just the right distance.
The house doesn’t show off. It doesn’t need to. Instead, it welcomes—sturdy and warm, with rooms that glow in the late afternoon light and windows that frame the forest like a painting. From certain vantage points, like enjoying morning coffee from the picture window in the kitchen, Pikes Peak stands watch, through the trees like a quiet promise. Inside, there’s room to gather and space to breathe. Four bedrooms offer a place for everyone to land, while a separate office, hidden behind French doors and flanked by tall windows, becomes a sanctuary, makes working from home feel more like retreating into the woods with a purpose. Additional bonus rooms throughout the house make for room versatility, a study, a play room, a craft/paint room, etc. The kitchen hums with life, granite countertops and centrally located in the house, ready for pancake mornings or late-night conversations. Wander down to the lower level and discover a hidden gem: a wine cellar tucked cool and quiet beneath the house, waiting to host your most cherished vintages and spontaneous celebrations. A recreation area with a walk-out sliding glass door to step into nature or enjoy a versatile exercise room/movie room to round out this space. A large bedroom and bathroom complete this floor in the most inviting way. Step outside, and the world shifts. Stone paths meander past the water feature with a ready area for cozy outdoor seating. Hang out by the wooden footbridge—more storybook than suburban. A picnic table rests beneath the pines, perfectly placed for long summer dinners and crisp fall mornings.
