Property Description

Set above the world on 41 pristine acres, this is where Colorado reveals itself at its most breathtaking. From sunrise over the Front Range to alpenglow on the peaks of Rocky Mountain National Park and the still waters of Gold Lake below, every moment here feels elevated, private, and unforgettable.Located just 40 minutes from Boulder, Estes Park, Nederland, and Eldora Mountain Resort-yet a world away in feel-this property offers a rare balance of accessibility and total seclusion.The 4,188 sq ft log residence is a true work of art, handcrafted by M&H Log Homes of Alberta, Canada, and thoughtfully positioned to capture sweeping 360 views in every direction. Inside, rich wood tones, soaring ceilings, and three fireplaces create an atmosphere that is both grand and welcoming-perfect for gathering with family or unwinding after a day in the mountains.Expansive viewing decks blur the line between indoors and out, offering front-row seats to Colorado's ever-changing landscape. Whether it's morning coffee above the clouds or evenings under a blanket of stars, this home was designed to immerse you in its surroundings.A detached 720 sq ft garage with a private guest apartment above-complete with its own fireplace-offers flexibility for hosting, extended stays, or a dedicated retreat space.Fully off-grid with a solar power system and backup generator, private well, and septic, the property delivers true independence without compromise. Below the home, a peaceful meadow opens up additional possibilities-whether for recreation, relaxation, or simply enjoying the quiet.This is more than a home-it's a legacy mountain retreat for those seeking space, privacy, and a deeper connection to the Colorado landscape.
