About This Home

As of February 2024

Welcome to The Colony at Lake San Marcos! Location, location, location makes this one of the premiere single level townhomes in the area with sweeping views from the private wrap around patio at the end of a cul-de-sac, and privacy galore. This is the largest single level in The Colony with two bedrooms and a den (which could be used as a bedroom). The living room boasts vaulted ceilings, a fireplace and floor to ceiling windows which encompass the beautiful mountain views. The eat-in kitchen is light and bright and is loaded with freshly painted cabinets. An abundance of pull-out shelving and counterspace make the kitchen an absolute delight. Custom storage cabinets and pulldown stairs for upper garage storage make the attached two car garage very user friendly! The HOA is represented by a homeowner’s board that has managed to keep the monthly HOA dues low while covering maintenance items like irrigation, landscaping, exterior stucco, exterior painting, roofs, and termite inspections/repairs etc. A community well offers sustainability to landscape irrigation and future water costs. Residents of The Colony enjoy a Lake and Lodge Membership. This membership provides use of the beautiful clubhouse, 4 pickleball courts, 3 tennis courts, two heated swimming pools, fitness center, billiards room, and access to the lake for fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, boating etc. Also located within this wonderful community are The Lakehouse Hotel and Resort, The Grill Restaurant, The Canteen coffee shop, and two golf courses named The Links at Lakehouse and The Executive Course.
