About This Home

Tucked among the pines of Cedar Park, this charming mountain log home retreat offers both year-round comfort and an ideal holiday getaway. Blending rustic Colorado character with modern conveniences, it captures the lifestyle so many dream of. Step inside to a welcoming living area with a wood stove that adds warmth and mountain charm. A spacious dining room leads into the rustic kitchen, designed for gathering and connection. Enjoy the fresh mountain air from either of the two expansive 24' x 11' decks-one on the main level and the other directly off the primary bedroom-perfect for morning coffee, evening stargazing, or soaking up serene forest views. Wake up in the main bedroom to brilliant natural light and inspiring scenery, complete with a walk-in closet. The walk-out basement provides flexible space for an additional bedroom, family room, or home office. Recent updates include a freshly restained exterior for lasting protection and a serviced furnace for peace of mind. Outside, gather around the fire pit for s'mores and stories under the stars. Practical features such as main floor rough-in bathroom, laundry hookup, in the basement two cisterns (250 & 750 gallons), and a full septic system make mountain living easy. With National Forest access just steps away, you'll find endless opportunities for hiking, wildlife viewing, and seasonal adventures. Just a short drive away, Estes Park welcomes you with its quaint mountain shops, local dining, and breathtaking views that stretch toward the towering face of Longs Peak. From there, step into the splendor of Rocky Mountain National Park, a sanctuary of trails, wildlife, and endless adventure. You've found the ideal blend of seclusion and accessibility. Whether you envision a full-time residence or a peaceful mountain retreat, this property is ready to be the beginning of your next journey.
