Compared to other local areas, Peyton is a sleepy bedroom community. This neighborhood is exclusive yet invited, small, yet spacious. Each property includes a large lot, perfect for those looking for privacy or outdoors lovers who always dreamed of owning their own land. Peyton real estate is also reasonably priced, and there are a variety of homes that can meet many different budgets.
Stucco-style Ranch homes are most popular in the area, and many of the properties in Peyton are newly built or built within the past several years. These homes blend a modern and traditional style with large, bright windows, and extra space that complements the panoramic views and wide-open sky.
New construction homes in the area are all custom-built, with luxury features such as granite countertops, multi-car garages, open-concept floor plans, energy-efficient appliances, and more.
First settled in 1888, Peyton began as a small postal outlet. The first settlers in the area wanted to name is Mayfield, but the idea was rejected because there already was a post office in Mayfield, California.
The first settlers to the area included James and Susan McDermott and James became the first postmaster in the area. Eventually, the post office became a hub of activity in the community, acting as a general store, post office, and boarding house. In fact, the structure still stands today at the corner of Front and Main Street in Peyton.
Over the years, Peyton experienced growth as more people began to settle there. In the early 1920s, a fire broke out and destroyed many buildings, but the community rebuilt and today we are left with a charming, sleepy community that has a lot to offer residents.
In addition to the basic amenities, Peyton homeowners also enjoy the outdoors, the Homestead Ranch Regional Park is nearby, offering picnic areas, playgrounds, hiking trails, and more. Additionally, the community is only a short commute to Colorado Springs, making Peyton a great choice for professionals looking to capture the finest parts of country living.
Although the town of Peyton is tiny, the adjacent unincorporated area of Falcon shares the same Peyton zip code, adding immensely to the deceiving population statistics. The Falcon North area is where a few of the larger developments such as Woodmen Hills and Meridian Ranch are located.
