Located in Castle Pines Village, a gated community in Castle Rock, Colorado, Orofino Place is an admiring adaptation of an English country village, an intimate grouping of 19 homes, each privately situated amid ponderosa pines, quaking aspen and gamble oak.
|
The Orofino homes are defined by their Cotswold-styled rolled shake roofs, an Elizabethan look, that sets them apart from anything else on this side of the Atlantic. Complementing the intricate roofs, textured stucco and heavily exposed wood and brick trim characterize each home. Inside, the cottages have all the amenities of modern living in addition to historic accents such as exposed beams, tenon joinery and plaster walls.
Each roof as different as a fingerprint |
The cottages come in all shapes and sizes with different models ranging from 2,700 to 4,000 square feet. The elevation of the area, at 6,200 feet, provides a perfect habitat for the wildlife that abounds in the area. Bobcat, deer, and elk all call this region home.
Exemplifying the whimsy and charm of a bygone era, Orofino evokes a fairy-tale setting that changes with the seasons; beautiful gardens in spring and summer, colorful aspen leaves in fall, and views of snow capped peaks in winter.
Orofino Place is a "best kept secret" that the community is happy to share. Those who live here are proud of their hidden gem and invite you to explore the wavy roofs, quirky shapes and the quaint European appeal of Orofino Place.
