The north end of Colorado Springs and more specifically "The Black Forest" and "Tri-Lakes" areas are rapidly becoming a popular destination for those seeking the "Colorado Luxury Lifestyle". Proximity to National Forest, Skiing, Popular Schools and the advent of higher end amenities are making this area a wise choice when considering relocation.
The "Broadmoor" area, located in the southwestern part of Colorado Springs has long been the only choice for those looking to buy a luxury home in the Pikes Peak region. The five star, five diamond Broadmoor Hotel was the natural epicenter of the discerning home buyer in Colorado Springs. Changes is the north-end landscape are creating another choice.
