Only 27 minutes to Golden, 30 minutes to Eldora, 45 minutes to Denver, this private home is easily accessible year-round via paved / maintained roads, in between campgrounds and ranger stations. Expansive decks let you relate to nature, while the home's double apartments allow for guests, rental income and more! Enter through the garage or up the side to the main entrance off the patio, and you'll be greeted by a south-facing living room with vaulted ceilings, wood burning stone fireplace and hardwood floors (custom ash wood, refinished summer 2025). On your right is a quaint bedroom with bathroom, next to main-level laundry. To the left, the kitchen opens up with an island, extensive cabinetry and south-facing views to the park. An extra bedroom is off the back of the home, used as a dining room or office. Off the main kitchen, is a Gilpin County-permitted artists' studio / rec room with its own kitchen, wood burning fireplace, private patio and more! A full bathroom is shared between this unit and the main home. Behind the kitchen, doors lead to the backyard, opening to a private, wooded retreat with wood storage (for fireplaces), partially fenced dog run and walking paths / hiking trails! Outside there's a 150 square foot (approximate) shed, which is insulted, with heat and has 240v electrical used for "growing vegetables". In the basement, two bays for cars are present, along with a third bay used as a workshop / home gym, in addition to an exterior carport. On the south side next to the garage, a second apartment has its own kitchen, bathroom and separate entrance! This home was custom built and has a lot of exquisite features, ready to be your secluded but accessible retreat for living, welcoming guests or income. Priced to sell, so see it today!
