*Lakefront living with mountain views in the heart of Palmer Lake!* This inviting ranch-style home offers a wonderful combination of Colorado scenery, flexible living space, and easy outdoor living, all just steps from the lake and Santa Fe Trail. Inside, the open main-level floor plan features vaulted ceilings, hickory flooring, and a stone/stucco gas fireplace that creates a warm focal point for the living room. The kitchen offers hickory cabinetry, granite countertops, tile flooring, and a tasteful backsplash, with a 5-burner gas range, washer, dryer, and other kitchen appliances included. The attached dining area opens to a newer sunroom, providing even more space to relax and enjoy the outdoors throughout the seasons. The sunroom opens to a generous 36' x 12' deck with a SunSetter awning, creating an ideal spot for outdoor dining and enjoying the surrounding scenery. The main level offers a convenient main-level primary suite featuring a large walk-in closet, adjoined bathroom with a corner tub, dual sinks, and a separate shower. The views through the soundproof windows are fabulous! Both bathrooms feature granite countertops and tile flooring. The walkout basement adds flexibility with a large family room, two bedrooms, one with a slider, and a full bathroom. That bathroom experienced a water leak from the bathroom above and is currently mitigated but unfinished, and the home is being sold as-is; these conditions are reflected in the price, allowing the next owner to finish the space to their taste. Outside, enjoy a low-maintenance yard with artificial turf in both the front and backyard, a private hot tub, covered patio, spacious deck with an awning, and an 8' x 15' custom-built shed with plenty of room for outdoor gear, bikes, paddleboards, and lake toys, and direct access to the Santa Fe Trail. The home features 2x6 construction, two 40-gallon water heaters, and central air conditioning. The seller is open to offers.
