Nestled in the coveted Lake Forest Estates subdivision, this rare vacant lot offers the perfect blend of tranquility, convenience and access to adventure. Flat and level, and backing to a greenbelt that borders National Forest land, this homesite ensures that nothing will ever be built behind you - just serene views, rustling pines, and visits from grazing deer and songbirds. Enjoy morning coffee on your future deck as wildlife wanders through your backyard, or take a short 1/10-mile walk out the back to explore miles of National Forest trails. Or - go out your front door towards the street - you're just 1/5 of a mile from the forest entrance via Periwinkle and Arrowhead. Grab your bike and ride the trails! And for water lovers, Lake Forest Access is less than 1/3 of a mile away, inviting you to fish, paddleboard, or kayak in the peaceful mountain waters. This is one of the few lots available in this desirable neighborhood with such exceptional natural surroundings. Despite the seclusion, you’re just 6 minutes from City Market, 12 from historic downtown Pagosa Springs, and 14 from the world-famous Springs Resort, with the World’s Deepest Hot Spring. Come winter, Wolf Creek Ski Area - with the most snow in Colorado - is less than 45 minutes away. Whether you envision a cozy cabin retreat or a full-time mountain home, this lot places the best of the San Juans right outside your door!
