Property Description
Absolutely magical property in Gilpin County's coveted Meadowlake Mountain Acres. 172 Thorn Circle blends warm natural finishes, floor-to ceiling windows, and an extraordinary natural setting. This charming home is a short walk to the idyllic Thorn Lake. Residents enjoy fishing, swimming, floating, and skating. The trail system of Golden Gate State Park is an easy walk from the property. An enclosed entry provides an easy landing spot as you enter. To your right is a comfortable office space. Fiber-optic high-speed internet available. The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area create an inviting gathering space with hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, a cozy wood-burning stove, and a striking wall of glass that dissolves the boundary between indoors and out. The chef's kitchen features custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a high-efficiency induction cooktop, and stainless-steel appliances. From the dining area, French doors lead to a spacious deck, ideal for al fresco meals. The primary bedroom offers floor-to-ceiling windows and direct access to a private deck, complete with hot tub for peaceful relaxation under the trees. Recent improvements include a fully fenced half-acre perfect for pets, fresh interior paint, two large wood sheds, and a newly upgraded garage that provides flexible space. Upgraded hot water system and updated bathrooms with new fixtures. This home sits on a flat, usable lot seeded with over 10,000 wildflowers weaving through the aspen grove. Located just 10 miles from Nederland, 14 miles from Eldora, and 6 miles from the lively town of Rollinsville. Access to Golden, Boulder, and Denver in less than an hour. Adjacent lot at 119 Damascus Rd. completes the picture adding 1+ acre with seating areas in the old growth forest, a kids play structure, and a picnic area with views of Mt. Thorodin. This is a very special property and seller's would prefer to sell both the house and the adjacent lot together. Asking price for lot is $149,900.
