Property Description

Set at the end of a quiet road on 1.65 private acres, this unforgettable A-frame is the kind of property buyers dream about but rarely find. Surrounded by towering pines, a seasonal stream, and peaceful forest views, this absolute gem delivers the perfect blend of architectural character, privacy, and year-round accessibility. Whether you are searching for a weekend escape, a creative retreat, a remote-work hideaway, or a place to unplug and reconnect with nature, this cabin offers a lifestyle that feels worlds away while still being within easy reach of Loveland and Estes Park. Inside, the home lives far larger than its 834 square feet, with soaring vaulted ceilings, warm wood accents, an open-concept layout, and a lofted upper level that gives the home its iconic cabin feel. The updated kitchen, remodeled bath, natural stone hearth, and high-efficiency Quadra-Fire wood stove create the perfect balance of rustic charm and modern comfort. Large windows and expansive decks blur the line between indoors and out, making the surrounding landscape part of everyday life. Spend your mornings with coffee overlooking the trees, your afternoons working remotely with mountain views outside your window, and your evenings listening to the sounds of the seasonal stream under a sky full of stars. A private half-mile trail leads to a secluded lake and seasonal cascades, while National Forest access sits less than half a mile away. Additional features including supplemental solar, a workshop/shed, forced-air heating, and year-round road access make this a true all-season retreat. This is more than a cabin. It is a storybook mountain escape with timeless A-frame architecture and the kind of setting that makes buyers fall in love the moment they arrive. Touring this beautiful home? You are invited to sit on the deck for a moment and take in the scenery while you are there. Breathe in the fresh mountain air and experience the rare opportunity that could be yours!
