Updated 3-Bed Ventana Home — 3-Car Tandem Garage & Mountain Views
This thoughtfully upgraded Challenger Homes Charleston plan in Ventana delivers room to grow and function for modern family life. At 2,771 square feet, the home opens with a dedicated office to the left of the entry and a convenient half bath to the right — ideal for daytime work and guest use. The large main-level family room flows into an impressive chef’s kitchen with a generous island, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a walk-in pantry and tasteful crown-molding detail. Durable LVP flooring anchors the kitchen and entry area for low-maintenance everyday life.
Entertaining and outdoor living are front-and-center: the dining area walks out to a fully fenced backyard with an expansive concrete patio, shaded pergola seating area and long-range mountain views — a rare mix of usable yard and vistas. Upstairs, an oversized loft creates a flexible second living room, media area, or play zone while the primary bedroom and two additional bedrooms comfortably accommodate family and guests. A large 3-car tandem garage with built-in storage provides exceptional workshop and storage capacity that sets this home apart from typical product in the neighborhood.
Recent exterior updates — newer roof, updated gutters and fresh paint — reduce immediate maintenance concerns and let the next owner move in with confidence. Located in Ventana, the home offers direct access to the community center, playgrounds, soccer fields, apple orchard and miles of trails connecting to Adams Open Space and Metcalf Park. Commuters will appreciate the relatively short drive to Fort Carson and convenient access into Colorado Springs.

A factual market snapshot around 7368 Benecia Dr.
Ventana and Fountain remain attractive to military families and commuters to Colorado Springs thanks to proximity to Fort Carson. As of early 2026 the local market has stabilized after the pandemic-era volatility: buyers are patient but will act quickly on well-priced, move-in-ready homes. Median sale prices in the broader Fountain/southern Colorado Springs submarket are below central Colorado Springs, providing relative value for comparable home sizes. Inventory is moderate; well-upgraded homes that show strongly and highlight unique features (like a 3-car tandem garage and mountain views at this address) can generate multiple offers, especially when marketed to relocation buyers. For investors, rental demand is steady — a professionally managed 3-bed Ventana home should achieve rents that support a mid-single-digit gross yield. Verify current comps and taxes to finalize an offer strategy.
