Property Description
Set around 9,520 feet, the property offers a true mountain-cabin feel with heavy tree cover, sloped terrain, and strong view potential. The slope is part of the opportunity here, creating privacy and elevation for a buyer who wants to design something that fits the land. Power is reported nearby, giving buyers a helpful head start as they plan utilities, driveway, excavation, and future improvements.
The lake area is one of the big lifestyle draws when water is present. Current water levels are dry and depend on winter snowmelt, so buyers should verify current and seasonal conditions, but the setting still gives this parcel a unique feel inside Forbes Park. Access is through the gated community by Forbes Park roads, with gate/key access and HOA documents available for review.
No water, or septic is currently on-site, so buyers can plan their own mountain setup around their goals. Buyer to verify HOA rules, building requirements, utilities, excavation costs, lake conditions, access, internet options, and intended use. Approximate driving distances from the GPS point: 6 miles to the Forbes Park gate, 23 miles to Fort Garland, 25 miles to Mountain Home Reservoir, 52 miles to Great Sand Dunes National Park, 53 miles to Alamosa, and 66 miles to Sand Dunes Recreation.

With more than 20 years in Douglas County, I bring both local knowledge and a personal understanding of how our housing needs change through different seasons of life. As an empty nester who has also experienced multi-generational living firsthand, I especially enjoy helping clients think through what they need from a home today—and what will serve them well in the years ahead.
My approach to real estate is shaped by a diverse professional background. I earned a law degree and spent years in senior corporate leadership, including leading a business division responsible for product acquisition and development, sales, marketing, and overall performance. Today, alongside our real estate business, we own a residential remodeling and handyman company. That combination brings business leadership, strategic negotiation, marketing expertise, legal education, and hands-on knowledge of homes to every transaction.
For sellers, I help determine what’s worth doing—and what isn’t—to prepare and position a home for the best possible result. When updates make sense, our pay-at-close renovation option can help coordinate practical improvements without requiring upfront payment. For buyers, I bring the same thoughtful approach to evaluating a home’s condition, potential, functionality, and long-term value.
Above all, I’m a calm, strategic, and hands-on partner who believes great representation is personal. Whether I’m developing a pricing strategy, negotiating on your behalf, coordinating contractors and staging, or hanging curtains before photos, I treat your move with the same care I would my own.
