5486 Mesa Top Drive

This home carries a quiet confidence one that reveals itself gradually and stays with you. Located WEST of I-25 in the heart of Forest Lakes, it offers a setting and level of finish that feel both intentional and enduring. Hardwood floors extend throughout the main level, drawing you into a great room anchored by a floor-to-ceiling stone widescreen linear fireplace. Wide hardwood stairs upgrade connects the home seamlessly to the lower level, reinforcing the thoughtful continuity of design. The kitchen is refined and purposeful, designed for those who appreciate quality without excess. Premium appliances, including an induction range and professional-grade dishwasher, support both daily living and effortless entertaining. The main-level primary suite is a true retreat. Even the laundry room reflects this home’s attention to detail, with cabinetry, a dedicated sink, and a floor drain. The lower level continues the same standard of finish, featuring a second fireplace with stone rising to the ceiling, pre-plumbed for future wet bar, and plumbing already in place for a future bathroom suite. Outdoors, an oversized paver patio opens to mountain views and evening skies, framed by landscaping that blooms beautifully in spring. A Class 4 roof, whole-house humidifier, air conditioning, EV-ready garage, and various motorized window treatments reflect a home built for long-term comfort and durability. Forest Lakes is known for its protected open space, private lakes, miles of trails, and proximity to the mountains, the Air Force Academy, hospitals, Briargate shopping, and quick access to I-25 making both Colorado Springs Airport and DIA easily accessible while preserving a peaceful, mountain-oriented lifestyle. This is not a home designed to follow trends. It is a rare opportunity to own a home that is established yet still new thoughtfully built, extensively upgraded, and cared for with longevity in mind.
