The best homes have a little "reveal" to them-and 100 Ely Street has more than one. From the curb, it's a classic brick ranch on a generous corner lot. Step inside, and it keeps unfolding: 5 bedrooms, 3 baths and 3,750 finished square feet with warm (gorgeous) site-finished hardwood floors, multiple gathering spaces, a wood-burning fireplace, an updated kitchen and an enclosed front porch that feels like its own little retreat. Downstairs, the story gets even better. Two additional bedrooms join a great office office, recreation and flex spaces, a generous bar area, additional laundry hookups and two oversized bonus rooms ready for hobbies, fitness, media, guests or whatever life brings next. Storage is everywhere, including a hidden closet and dedicated ski/sports storage. Outside, the level corner lot adds (massive) RV/Boat/Toy parking, extensive concrete for entertaining and everyday use, an insulated attached garage and three separate storage sheds. And then there's the location-one of the home's quiet but important advantages. Talbott Elementary and Watson Junior High are just around the corner (easy walk with the kids in the morning!), with Mesa Ridge High about a mile away. Groceries, coffee, restaurants and everyday shopping are close at hand along Fontaine and the surrounding retail corridors. Fort Carson is an easy south-side commute, Peterson SFB is roughly 15-20 minutes away, and Schriever remains readily accessible to the east. Updated, comfortable and wonderfully versatile, 100 Ely Street is the kind of home that makes more sense with every room you discover. The photos introduce it. Walking through it is where the possibilities really begin.
