About 10695 E Empire Dr
Set on 5.16 wooded acres in Russellville, this Franktown home offers the space, privacy and quiet that make this corner of Douglas County so special, while keeping schools, shopping and everyday conveniences within easy reach. Adding to the sense of seclusion, the adjacent property is county open space, creating an additional natural buffer and even more privacy.
Built in 1984, the two-story home offers 2,399 finished square feet above grade with three bedrooms and three full bathrooms, plus a 754 square foot unfinished basement ready for storage, a workshop, home gym or future expansion. A fireplace anchors the main living space, while significant improvements include new windows in 2017, a high-impact shingle roof and new furnace in 2023, and new skylights in 2024. An attached two-car garage provides room for vehicles and Colorado gear year-round.
Russellville offers a genuinely rural feel without being remote. Mature pines and scrub oak provide natural screening, while acreage, horse properties, outbuildings and gardens are all part of the character of the area. The home is also located on the school bus route, meaning the road is plowed during snowy weather-a valuable benefit for Colorado acreage living.
Castle Rock is approximately 15 minutes west, Parker roughly 20 minutes north, and Elizabeth a short drive east. Castlewood Canyon State Park is just minutes away for hiking, climbing and exploring.
Located in Douglas County School District RE-1 and served by Franktown Elementary, Sagewood Middle School and Ponderosa High School. More than five wooded acres, neighboring open space and room to make this property your own create an increasingly rare opportunity. Buyer to verify all information.
