Don’t miss out on this beautiful waterfront home on Forest Lake! The home features a thoughtful floor plan with lake views from multiple rooms, a spacious living room with vaulted ceilings, a primary suite, and a main-floor laundry room. The open kitchen is equipped with an island, Corian counters, double Jenn-Air ovens, and a beverage cooler, while the dining area includes a wet bar and recessed lighted niches. The outdoor entertaining space is extended by a spacious deck and campfire area overlooking the lake. In 2002, the home was stripped down to 4 walls, an addition was made, and new plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems were installed. Updates within the last 6 years include a steel seawall, retaining walls, a dock, a 10x16 shed, and more. Some of the furniture is available for sale to the homebuyer. Forest Lake community amenities include a clubhouse, beach, pavilion, campground, parks, and security. Plus, state land and the Rifle River are nearby.
