Palmer Lake Community is calling your name! Tucked into a fabulous area with parks and waterfront nearby, this open-concept single-story home checks every box. Fully fenced to keep the wayward soccer ball on property (should you like that sort of thing), and placed midway down a peaceful cul-de-sac for extra privacy. Need a place to store your gardening treasures or hobby creations? A gate large enough for your boat or RV leads to a sturdy, super-dry shed. Want a cover for that boat, too? The seller is willing to leave an additional cover just inside the gates.Inside, vaulted ceilings let this home live large, while french doors off the great room open to the perfect patio for BBQs and entertaining. And with Palmer Lake itself just moments away, summer fun is never far — swimming, boating, and lakeside relaxation all included. Truly a gem worthy of your viewing.
