Pulpit Rock


 

PULPIT ROCK

There is an established neighborhood nestled in North Colorado Springs called Pulpit Rock, also known as Erindale.  It is located South of Woodmen Road, West of Academy Blvd. and East of I-25.  The natural beauty of the area with the huge rock formations, towering Ponderosa Pines heavy with pine cones fill the air with a wonderful natural scent.  Homes are often placed among these magnificent trees creating privacy and seclusion yet within a neighborhood that enjoys easy access to multiple areas off of I-25, Woodmen Road or Academy Blvd.  This is mountain-like living in the heart of the city!

Most homes in the area were built in the 1970s and 1980s and many sit on large spacious lots.  The seclusion of this little-known valley enable it to remain a close-knit neighborhood with friendly, welcoming populace, and yet allow residents to expand their horizons to partake of all that Colorado Springs has to offer.

While tucked away in its enclave, Pulpit Rock is adjacent to every amenity that Colorado Springs offers.  Chapel Hills Mall is minutes away.  There are fitness centers, spas and Pine Creek golf course is 10 minutes away where the finest of greens and clubhouse await.  Interstate 25 is easily accessible with a direct route to the Air Force Academy or for traveling to Denver.  Woodmen Road provides an east/west route to the Powers corridor where shopping and dining abound!

Located close by is the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs’ Campus.  Other higher education and vocational colleges are plentiful and within a short commute to this centrally – located community.

Lying near Pulpit Rock are three open spaces that have been combined to form the Austin Bluffs Open Space – Pulpit Rock, University Park, and Austin Bluffs.  Altogether they cover 586 acres, making this one of the largest open space parcels in the city.  There are gorgeous trails for hiking, mountain biking and  horseback riding.  Leashed dogs are also welcome to join you as you share the great outdoors – Colorado style!
