Mere minutes from the historic mining town of St Elmo and accessed via year-round maintained county road, this light-filled log cabin is your quintessential mountain retreat. Located on ten acres completely surrounded by National Forest. Year round Chalk Creek flows across the corner of the property, offering immediate access to miles of small stream fishing. Other recreational activities such as ATVing, snowmobiling, hiking, biking, skiing, and snowshoeing, are accessible right out your door. Nestled among the aspens, the cabin's main level features welcoming entry foyer with generous mud room, primary suite, great room with wood burning fireplace and floor-to-ceiling stone chimney, kitchen and laundry. The great room and primary bedroom open onto a generous deck to take in the mountain views and listen to the sound of Chalk Creek rising up from below. Upstairs is a second bedroom, full bathroom, loft and private nook for office or additional sleeping quarters.
