Perched on a private hilltop and situated on over an acre across two combined lots (612 & 590 Alpine Forest Drive), this well-maintained single-level 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers privacy, comfort, and convenient mountain living. Located near the entrance to the Forest Lakes subdivision, the property provides quick and easy access to County Road 501 while still enjoying a peaceful setting among the pines.
The open-concept floor plan features vaulted tongue-and-groove wood ceilings, abundant natural light, and a spacious living area with a wood stove tucked into the corner, creating a warm and inviting gathering space. The kitchen offers generous counter space, an oversized island, and a seamless connection to the dining and living areas. Large windows throughout the home bring in natural light and showcase the surrounding forest setting.
Designed for convenient single-level living, the home includes a primary suite with direct access to the back patio through a sliding glass door, along with two additional bedrooms that can easily serve as guest rooms, office space, or hobby rooms. An insulated mudroom and efficient two-zone in-floor radiant heat add everyday functionality and year-round comfort.
Outside, the property offers a circular driveway, fire-mitigated surroundings, mature trees, and usable outdoor space. Additional improvements include a 12.6' x 18.6' storage shed, a wood shed, and an owned 250-gallon propane tank. Approved plans are available for a future carport (buyer to verify with La Plata County Building Department).
Located in Forest Lakes, the property is served by central water and sewer and has access to Visionary internet, phone service, and DirectTV. Metro District fees are approximately $220 per month and include water, sewer, subdivision road maintenance/ snow removal, trash service, and mail kiosk.
