This is more than a home; it's about joining a vibrant community with a private lake and many popular amenities, located in one of the most highly-desired private neighborhoods in Arvada. This end-unit cluster home is situated on the HOA-managed greenbelt and just 100 steps to the pool, lake, playground, and clubhouse. The home has been updated and is move-in ready. The two-car detached oversize garage encloses a lovely courtyard with three low-maintenance entertaining areas for grilling and gathering around the fire pit. The interior of the home features an updated kitchen with a fantastic butler's pantry/laundry combination, a large dining area, a formal living room, and a flexible family room. The upstairs boasts three bedrooms including a primary bedroom with an updated bath ensuite. The basement is finished with two additional bedrooms with egress windows, and a bathroom. You can walk your paddleboard or kayak over to your 35-acre private lake which is stocked with largemouth bass and panfish, or swim in the seasonal community Olympic-size pool. The Pond neighborhood is a friendly, community-oriented neighborhood with acres of green space, shaded walking trails, pools, tennis courts, two playgrounds, flex courts for pickleball, basketball, hockey, and tennis, and a community clubhouse. Paddle, sail, or walk to the south shore of the one-mile circumference lake where you might encounter a bald eagle, red fox, blue heron, or white pelican. Continue through the walking paths to join the Rocky Mountain Bikeway, Standley Lake, and the Standley Lake Public Library. Make this lakeside cottage your home and you will soon find yourself sitting by the lake taking in the sunset views over the mountains.
