This quaint seasonal studio cottage is a great mountain getaway in the foothills outside of Denver; just up Turkey Creek Canyon in the Indian Hills Community. Current owners did many improvements including beautiful knotty alder cabinets in kitchen, granite counter tops, wood floors in living room, total bathroom update with extra-long jacuzzi bathtub, walls were taken down to studs and built back out with new plumbing, electrical wiring, heavy insulation under floor and in crawl space, walls and attic. Gas fireplace makes for cozy cool summer evenings. No formal heating system. One of the nicest lots on the circle with full chain link fencing around the perimeter. Large crawl space for storage. Extensive fire mitigation around yard with removal of 100 trees and an additional stone layer around home. New roof, gutters and down spouts in 2021 with transferrable warranty for another 21 years plus fire hydrant in front. Outdoor storage items include Tuff Shed, Rubbermaid closet, outhouse used for storage and wood shed. Home has newer water tap for city water. Unique Wall hangings from prior owners go back to early 1970’s with local deaf artist named Ed Plummer. History of artist displayed on wall. Historic 'Indian Hills' filing in 1923 was named to recall the association with original inhabitants. Geneva Glen Camp down the road has flourished since its inception in 1922 catering to children aged 6-16. See supplements for brief history of Indian Hills. The entire cottage is sold “as is” (except for personal items and electronics) with all furnishings including washer/dryer, outdoor furniture, gas lawn mower, kitchen dinnerware, pots & pans, microwave, cook books, even spices and more!
