    What's special

    Contemporary styleAbundant wildlifeModern luxuryScenic viewsPrivate river frontageRiver front cottageMitsubishi mini split
    This beautifully updated river front cottage offers a perfect blend of modern luxury, natural beauty, and peaceful seclusion. Nestled along the crystal-clear Mid St. Vrain river (the cabin is not visible from Riverside Drive & sits out of flood plain according to the flood certificate depending on which zone mapping), it provides a private retreat surrounded by wildlife and scenic views. Though it feels like a remote haven, it's only a quick drive to Lyons & short trip to Boulder, Eldora ski resort, or Estes Park. The cottage is conveniently located near some of Colorado's most sought-after destinations and the short term rental history (memorialized by Boulder County- it's grandfathered as an STR and does NOT need a rental license) is strong. The recently renovated cottage, combines contemporary style with the cozy warmth of natural wood. The open floor plan is filled with natural light from large windows, offering direct views of the private river frontage and abundant wildlife. Whether you want to relax by the river, explore nature, or enjoy the energy of nearby towns, this cottage offers the best of both worlds-peaceful seclusion with easy access to adventure and modern conveniences. The cabin has a new high producing well, is now insulated, has a Mitsubishi Mini split (provides A/C and heat), a wood burning fireplace and new flooring. Perfect for year-round living or a seasonal escape, it's a place to enjoy Colorado in style. Must be sold with adjacent cabins-MLS #'s 1028813 & 1027173 or seller would entertain a Tenancy in Common scenario w/ a cash purchase.
