36 Chateau Lane, Bayfield, CO 81122

The property backs up to 12 acres of community recreation area with a big field to exercise your dog and cross country ski in the winter, old pine grove forest and beautiful views of the opposing ridges across the Pine River Valley. Not to mention the unobstructed views of the beautiful Colorado sunsets from the backyard! It's also at the base of the Forest Lakes subdivision, so you don't have to drive an extra 10-20 minutes uphill to get to it. Which makes your commute that much shorter and the need for 4-wheel drive unnecessary. The fire danger is also 0, because the house isn't in the pine forest that the rest of the subdivision exists in. Chateau Lane is a spur at the base of Forest Lakes that dead ends after an 1/8th of a mile so there isn't much traffic at all. In addition to all these great features of the location, there is a small lake, Lake Simpatico, only 3/4 of a mile up the road to go fishing and recreate in the warmer months. Lake Vallecito at the foothills of the Weminuche Wilderness, (the largest wilderness in Colorado) is only 8 miles to the north where many come to spend the summer boating, fishing, backpacking, climbing and hunting.
