About the property

front of house twilight close

Nestled among aspens just 3 miles north of Idaho Springs, this 3-bedroom, 4-bath retreat offers quiet seclusion, year-round comfort, and complete energy independence — all within an hour of Denver.

Expansive windows frame panoramic views of Colorado’s 14ers, while a state-of-the-art solar array and advanced lithium battery system (30-year lifespan) power the home efficiently. A propane-powered backup generator ensures seamless off-grid living. Grid power is available at the end of the driveway for buyers who prefer connection flexibility.

Inside, radiant heat, high-end finishes, and thoughtful design create a space that feels calm, intentional, and connected to its surroundings. The home is framed for a future addition or back porch and has gas lines plumbed in front and back for an outdoor grill or pizza oven.

Pure, high-quality well water is treated with UV, heavy-metal, and reverse osmosis filtration, serviced by AquaServe. A radon mitigation system adds peace of mind.

Outside, enjoy a ½-acre fenced area perfect for pets, along with reliable 50 Mbps high-speed internet, making remote work or streaming effortless.

Step outside to explore National Forest access and scenic trails leading toward St. Mary’s Glacier, Winter Park, and beyond.

With year-round recreation and strong demand for high-end vacation homes, this property appeals to buyers seeking a versatile mountain retreat — one that can serve as a personal sanctuary, a part-time getaway, or an income-producing investment.

The sellers are open to negotiating the sale fully furnished, making it possible to step right into your modern mountain lifestyle.

Location Highlights:
• 2 miles from Black Hawk’s Artisan Point — distillery, scenic overlooks, and fresh air views
• Minutes to Virginia Canyon Mountain Bike Park + surrounded by National Forest
• Avoid the I-70 crunch — easy access to Loveland and Eldora without the bottleneck
• Less than an hour to downtown Denver for work or play
