Built in 2021 and extensively remodeled in 2025 and 2026, this contemporary 1,606-square-foot home is being offered mostly furnished and sits on a private one-acre lot in Forest Lakes. The remodel included a new kitchen and appliances, bathrooms, ceilings, windows and doors, hardwood flooring and trim, fresh interior paint throughout, mini-split heating and air conditioning, and exterior updates including stone accents. The main level is open and filled with natural light from a two-story wall of windows overlooking the surrounding pines and valley. The living room, dining area and kitchen flow together, with hardwood floors, a large quartz island, pantry and contemporary finishes. A bedroom and bathroom are also located on this level. Sliding doors open from the living area to a south-facing deck with valley and wooded views. The lower level includes a second bedroom and full bathroom, laundry room, office nook and mudroom, with direct access to the oversized one-car garage. The garage provides plenty of additional space for storage, bikes and outdoor gear and is large enough to also function as a workshop. The outdoor improvements have been thoughtfully designed to complement the natural setting. Water-wise landscaping incorporates native trees, shrubs and plants, natural rockwork and walkways throughout the property. A paved driveway, asphalt and concrete patio areas, established planting areas and multiple outdoor seating spaces create an attractive, low-maintenance setting while maintaining the natural character and privacy of the one-acre lot. A separate 12' x 16' storage building on a permanent foundation provides additional storage. The home is equipped with smart-home technology, allowing lights, thermostats and compatible appliances to be controlled through the Google Home app or Alexa. Additional features include natural gas, central water, septic, forced-air heat, mini-split heating and cooling, a tankless gas water heater and a water pressure pump. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac with limited through traffic, the property offers privacy along with convenient access to the outdoors. A trailhead at the end of the road provides direct access to the San Juan National Forest. Forest Lakes amenities also include the community lake, fishing rights, tennis courts and playground. Fiber internet is currently being installed throughout the subdivision and is expected to be available soon.
