Where high desert living meets sweeping mountain vistas and sparkling waters, this elevated home sits between two Colorado reservoirs, offering a bright, airy interior with a hint of coastal vibe. Step inside this custom-built 2019 single-level home, where every detail reflects quality, comfort, and style. The foyer opens to a bright, airy living room with vaulted ceilings and a wall of windows, creating a seamless connection to the covered back deck and emphasizing the indoor-outdoor flow. Dark wood floors anchor the space, while soothing sand and sky tones, crisp white trim, and French doors introduce a subtle coastal vibe rarely found in the high desert. The kitchen is a showpiece: a large granite island anchors the heart of the home, perfect for cooking, dining, gathering, and entertaining. Rustic yet refined wood cabinetry, a brick accent wall, farmhouse-style sink, coastal-inspired pendant lighting, and high-end LG stainless steel appliances—including a wall oven, stovetop, dishwasher, hood, and refrigerator—combine function, style, and beauty. Beyond the kitchen, a hexagonal extension framed by windows serves as a bright, inviting dining area. Two wings extend from the living area. The expansive primary suite to the east features dual vanities with granite countertops, a large walk-in closet, and private access to the back deck, capturing sweeping views and abundant natural light. This serene retreat perfectly combines luxury, comfort, and connection to the outdoors. On the west side, three additional bedrooms share a full bath, each room offering large windows, wood floors, and generous closets—ideal as bedrooms, guest rooms, or home offices. A dedicated laundry area sits conveniently between the oversized 2-car garage and front entry. Additional high-end features include central air, a large exterior Trex deck, Hardie Board siding, new gutters, and a steel roof, blending durability with elegance. With a location just minutes from the McPhee boat ramp, this home could easily double as a lake retreat, perfectly combining high desert privacy with water recreation access. Ample space remains to build a large additional garage for boats, RVs, or outdoor gear, and the HOA permits an additional garage—enhancing both functionality and long-term value. The HOA, with fees of only $250 per year, handles road maintenance and snow removal. This is more than a home—it’s an elevated lifestyle, where luxury, comfort, and subtle coastal flair meet the beauty of living in the Colorado high desert.
