Listing details for 1345 Mica Ln, Colorado Springs, CO 80906 : Architecturally significant mid-century modern home with spectacular views hidden away on a large secluded lot-yet close to everything! As soon as you enter this home, you will be overwhelmed by the wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling windows that take maximum advantage of 360-degree views of the city and expansive plains to the east, and the mountains & pine forests to the west. The 8 exterior doors that open to 1,000+ feet of decks & patio allow for seamless indoor/outdoor living & entertaining. This unique home features authentic rustic, yet modern, architecture with solid wood doors throughout, and vaulted wood plank ceilings with exposed beams on the entire main level. The Anderson windows and doors are an integral part of the architecture bringing the outdoors in and flooding the entire home with natural light. The outstanding exposure captures the warming sunshine and spectacular sunrises in the east, while the mature pine trees and mountains diffuse & soften the strong afternoon sun from the west. The main level features a unique and dramatic open floor plan in the shape of a cross, with an open chef’s kitchen in the center that views out to the city. The kitchen is adorned with stylish maple cabinets with three pantries, solid surface black counters, a four-person breakfast bar, custom tile back splash, Kitchen Aid gas cooktop, new slate colored side-by-side refrigerator, & new disposal. Every light fixture in the main level has been updated to compliment the architecture - including two mid-century “Sputnik” chandlers with Edison bulbs. The dining room feels like a cathedral with 270-degree views of city lights, pine trees and mountains. The living room has a new modern gas fireplace & raised hearth with 14-foot-high field stone chimney.
