Property Description
Rare opportunity to own a piece of Colorado heritage! Step into history with this enchanting 1930 rustic retreat, perfectly positioned in the prestigious High Drive neighborhood - just minutes from Beaver Meadows entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. With sweeping views of Longs Peak, this 2-building property sits on .44 acres north of the Fall River corridor near the eastern border of RMNP. Remodeled 2006. With a total of ~1413 sf, the Main Cabin (~714 SF) is anchored by the original 1930 moss rock fireplace - a striking architectural centerpiece that seamlessly bridges the cozy fireside living space with the bright, sun-drenched dining room, blending historic hearth craftsmanship with an abundance of natural light. The galley kitchen blends vintage charm with modern convenience, while the primary bedroom features white-paneled walls and classic checkerboard flooring. Next, step outside to a beautiful deck with direct, spectacular views of Longs Peak.The adjacent 2-story Bunkhouse (~699 SF) offers 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, ideal for guests or multi-generational living. Situated along national park boundaries, this property serves as a natural wildlife corridor - daily elk and deer sightings are the norm, not the exception. Ample parking and easy road access complete this one-of-a-kind Colorado mountain offering. This home has been a secondary home for decades but it is fully equipped for full-time living. Although it can be leased, the property is restricted to long term rentals (30 days or more) and as a single unit.
