Mountain adventure starts right outside your door at this approximately 4 acre retreat bordering National Forest, where panoramic Continental Divide views, incredible privacy, and easy access to some of Colorado's best outdoor recreation come together in one special setting. Ski at Eldora, hike or bike nearby trails, fish local waters, explore the Peak to Peak corridor, or simply step outside and enjoy wildlife, fresh mountain air, and the sounds of nearby South Boulder Creek drifting through the trees. Just one mile from Highway 119, the property feels wonderfully private while keeping Boulder, Nederland, Black Hawk, Eldora Ski Resort, and routes toward Denver and the Eisenhower Tunnel within easy reach. Expansive decks take full advantage of the scenery with no other homes in sight, creating an incredible place for morning coffee, summer dinners, or watching the mountains change with the seasons. The home has been extensively updated for comfortable, easy mountain living. Durable metal siding and composite decking reduce exterior upkeep, while interior improvements include remodeled bathrooms, luxury vinyl plank and tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, oil rubbed bronze fixtures, plus a new washer and dryer. Inside, approximately 2,400 square feet includes four bedrooms, three bathrooms, two spacious family rooms, vaulted wood ceilings, and abundant natural light. The flexible floor plan offers plenty of room for guests, a home office, hobbies, or gear after a day outside. A wood stove adds classic Colorado warmth, while forced air heat and central air conditioning provide year round comfort. A 12x16 storage building adds valuable space for bikes, skis, tools, and mountain toys. Acreage, National Forest access, big views, extensive updates, and an easy connection to Boulder make this a mountain property built for actually enjoying where you live.

Every so often, a place comes with a story worth telling. Originally part of a mountain retreat where four World War II veterans gathered after the war to reconnect and enjoy Colorado's beauty, this exceptional property still offers the same sense of peace, privacy, and escape that drew them here nearly 80 years ago. Today, durable metal siding, composite decking, and thoughtful updates provide a virtually maintenance free lifestyle, while breathtaking panoramic Continental Divide views, abundant wildlife, and approximately 4 private acres bordering National Forest create an extraordinary setting. Located just one mile from Highway 119, you'll enjoy convenient access to Boulder, Eldora Ski Resort, Black Hawk, and the Eisenhower Tunnel while coming home to exceptional privacy with only three neighboring properties and no visible homes from the expansive decks. The peaceful sounds of nearby South Boulder Creek often drift through the trees. Inside, the approximately 2,400 square foot floor plan features soaring vaulted wood ceilings, abundant natural light, four bedrooms, three remodeled bathrooms, and two spacious family rooms that offer flexibility for entertaining, working from home, or hosting guests. The primary suite showcases vaulted ceilings, while the additional bedrooms feature impressive 10 foot ceilings. Recent updates include luxury vinyl plank flooring, tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, oil rubbed bronze fixtures, and a new washer and dryer. A cozy wood stove adds warmth, while central air conditioning and forced air heat provide year round comfort. A 12x16 storage building, generous storage, and endless opportunities for hiking, skiing, biking, fishing, and exploring complete this remarkable property. Whether you're searching for a full time residence or a Colorado mountain retreat, this is a rare opportunity to own a home where history, natural beauty, and low maintenance living come together.
