The home is built on a hillside, with the living room & kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom located on the entry level and another two bedrooms, family room, laundry room and another full bathroom located downstairs. Forest Lake is known for its community lake (including lifeguard) that is open from June through August and its community park that has summer and holiday events like movie nights etc. You immediately feel very welcomed walking into the house with the warm wood finishes, open floor plan in the kitchen & living room, and vaulted ceilings.
