The Carter Lake Crown. Perched above the shimmering waters of Carter Lake, Carter Lake Crown is a rare Colorado retreat where serenity meets spectacle. From the east-facing deck, sailboats drift across the marina in summer, the lake glistens below, and evenings unfold into a tapestry of city lights stretching from Loveland to Longmont. To the west, sunsets spill across open valley skies in a daily display of color and calm. Set on 1.39 private acres within a gated enclave-no mandatory HOA, just shared pride of ownership-this 5,400+ SF modern Craftsman residence offers quiet, security, and unobstructed panoramic views. Carter Lake-owned land preserves sightlines to the east, while expansive parcels across the ridge ensure lasting privacy. Wildlife wanders freely among ponderosa pines, yet the boat ramp and marina are just five minutes away, bringing the joy and energy of lake life within effortless reach. Inside, soaring ceilings, bold hand-troweled walls, waterproof LVP flooring, and walls of Low-E windows frame unforgettable lake and city-light vistas. The great room stuns with a 16' vaulted ceiling, linear fireplace, and surround sound. A showpiece kitchen features Viking refrigeration, Thor induction cooktop, double ovens, quartz countertops, and a 9' island designed for gathering. The walkout lower level with wet bar and fireplace invites entertaining on any scale. Outdoor living is elevated with a 595 SF Timber Tech deck, propane grill line, hot tub, heated driveway, and WiFi-enabled lighting. Infrastructure matches beauty: 12.5 kW generator, EV circuit, tankless water heater, high-efficiency systems, and an oversized heated 4-car garage. An irrigated greenhouse and Craftsman outbuilding complete this exceptional offering. Peaceful. Private. Unforgettable.
