Don’t’ miss out on this Forest Lakes gem, it is a nature and wildlife lover’s paradise! This property is 4.13 acres in size and adjacent to thousands of acres of public lands. The privacy is second to none situated at the end of Ridge Top Drive and surrounded by tall matures pine trees without a neighbor in sight. When you first walk into the home you will be astounded by the 25’ ceilings with an inviting open floor plan. The locally sourced natural stone wood burning fireplace with natural gas log lighter as well as gas log insert is situated as the centerpiece to the great room. The natural light is endless, from the skylights to the picture view windows and 4 sets of french doors spanning the back of the house with access to the deck. The home consists of 3 large bedrooms with walk in closets and ceiling fans in each, 2 full baths and 1 half bath with a separate office (can be used as the 4th bedroom) on the main level that provides another covered access point to the deck. The master bedroom is located on the main floor with a full bath and double vanity and another set of french doors providing access to the covered portion of the back deck. The large carpeted loft boasts views of gorgeous sunsets and pine trees to the northeast and southwest making this a lovely place to relax and enjoy the comforts of this welcoming log home. The newer metal roof is another attractive update to this already turn key home and don’t miss the attached two car garage with ample room for all your mountain toys and/or cars. Another bonus to this home is the community water system so you never have to rely on a well or hauling as your source of water in this private mountain oasis. Since the seller retained ownership, the home has been transformed from a summer home, to a year-round retreat with a laundry list of improvements including but not limited to: remodeled bathrooms with new fixtures, updated kitchen with new appliances, custom made and locally sourced live edge wood kitchen island with wine storage and bookshelves, a 6ft high fenced dog run connected to deck and landscaping. The seller also elected to convert the home from propane to natural gas and installed new boiler to supply the in-floor radiant heating system that is now exponentially more efficient than the prior system, making heating the home in the winter far less expensive. The newly refinished deck is piped for gas grill and/or a fire pit and is nearly 700 SF in size overlooking the cleared backyard with an outdoor lounging area/fire pit and views for miles. The front deck is a great place to capture the sun with your morning coffee and enjoy the sounds of the seasonal creek that flows right through the property. The seller has tastefully furnished the home and the furnishings, housewares and linens are included in the sale of this turn key beautifully updated Colorado mountain home!
