Situated on a 0.23-acre lot in Forest Lakes, this updated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home offers 1,568 square feet of bright, functional living space with an attached two-car garage. The open main level features brand-new luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh paint, modern light fixtures, and new window blinds throughout. The updated kitchen includes a new range, microwave, backsplash, walk-in pantry, and a custom built-in dining nook with integrated bench storage. Both the dining nook and living room open onto an expansive 42' x 25' wrap-around back deck overlooking a partially fenced, grassy yard. A half bath and laundry room with a newly added sliding barn door complete the main floor. Upstairs offers abundant natural light across three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a dedicated bonus office/flex room. The primary suite features a walk-in closet, en-suite bath with dual vessel sinks, and blackout curtains, while matching luxury vinyl plank flooring is already purchased and stored in the garage to replace the upstairs carpet. Major mechanical upgrades include a brand-new HVAC system with central A/C, a tankless propane water heater and fiber internet. Residents enjoy Forest Lakes amenities, fishing rights, and no HOA dues (short-term rentals permitted subject to La Plata County guidelines).
