A beautiful, new (2020) mountain home on 2.8 Acres in Forbes Park, with spectacular mountain views. It is a luxurious, all one story, 2400 Sqft custom house, on the grid with high speed internet, a well that produces the best Rocky Mountain water you can get, a brand new septic system and radiant floor heating (propane) as well as a cozy wood stove. The house has an open floorplan with lots of light coming in. The large living room with vaulted ceilings and beams, sliding doors, gorgeous flooring and beautiful high-end lighting is open to the chef's kitchen with large pantry. Plenty of room to host friends and family with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a separate office space (or 3rd bedroom), a work-out/flex room, large mudroom/laundry room, hot tub and extra outdoor shower. The airy, open flow of the home's design feels wonderful. 250 SF unfinished attic. The 2 car garage has a mud and snow-proof, gravel floor. The house was built after the 2018 Spring Creek fire. Most burned trees were removed and new aspen trees are sprouting up. Some new trees and shrubs were planted and an extensive, automated drip system installed. Forbes Park is a very secure, gated, private mountain community at 9000 ft in the Southern Rockies, with about 5000 acres of common land to enjoy the beauty of nature and abundant wildlife (Elk, Deer, Mountain Lion, Bear, Bobcat, Turkey, all kinds of birds). Forbes Park is adjacent to the National Forest (game hunting unit 83, only a 15 min. drive). The HOA maintains the roads and plows the roads in the winter, so you will have year round access. It provides for trash removal service and there is a community center for all landowners to use with a kitchen, meeting room, toilets and showers.
There are many local attractions nearby like the Great Sand Dunes National Park, the historical Fort Museum in Fort Garland, Mountain Home Reservoir (trout fishing here!), Lathrop state Park and Golf course etc. Skiing at Taos Ski Valley about a 1.5 hour drive.
