About This Home
The luxury, sanctuary retreat you've been looking for is now on the market. You'll discover an extremely rare, one of a kind Rocky Mountain property complete with a gorgeous, full 12" log home built by Legacy Log Homes. Perfectly situated on 22+ very private acres of lush meadow, aspen grove, and evergreens with a seasonal creek running through, creating natural habitat for prolific wildflowers and ample opportunity to view the native wildlife. The main level of the home has vaulted beamed ceilings, wood floors, plentiful windows throughout, a gourmet kitchen with generous granite counters and breakfast bar, tile flooring, stainless appliances, custom lighting and so much more. The lower level opens to a patio where you can step outside and luxuriate in a private meadow full of wildflowers lined with aspen. In addition to the log home, the property includes an A-frame that's been decommissioned and is used as a work shop, together with an additional out-building for storage. Only minutes away from the Wild Basin entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park, Indian Peaks Wilderness, and Roosevelt National Forest, you're invited to experience all the outdoor activities the Rockies offer, as well as festivals, shopping and dining in the surrounding areas that include downtown Lyons, Estes Park, Allenspark, Jamestown and within an hour of Lake Eldora (Eldora Mountain) ski area. This sanctuary property is easily accessed by a well maintained private road. Don't miss this one!
