A modern home on a hillside of ponderosa pine, with open space behind it and Pikes Peak to the west.
Built in 2019 by M6 Structures, the house steps down its lot in a series of levels, so most rooms look out into the trees or the sky. It sits in Woodmen Oaks in northwest Colorado Springs, and the land behind it is open space.

Two homes under one roof
The lower level is a complete second apartment, with its own full kitchen, two bedrooms and two baths, and its own one-car garage. It works for in-laws or aging parents, grown kids, long visits from family, or potential rental income, while the main house keeps its own space upstairs.

The Winding Oaks shanty
A sung flight around the house, the lot, and the neighborhood, ending over the roof on Pikes Peak. Turn the sound on.
The setting
The lot climbs a pine-covered hillside above a quiet loop street. Gabion and stone walls hold the grade, and native scrub oak and ponderosa run right up to the decks. To the west, the Front Range rises behind the trees, with Pikes Peak at its center.
