Total fixer-upper with "Million Dollar Views". This unique property backs up to hundreds of acres of designated open space with beautiful hiking and biking trails right outside your door. There are gorgeous mountain views that will be unobstructed forever. The house is not livable as is, but is a relatively easy fixer-upper for someone with some building experience and/or the ability to act as a general contractor. The structure has been used as the Leyden Water District meeting room for many years, although the zoning is residential. The inside is wide open which makes it the perfect blank canvas to design your dream home. The Sellers have a preliminary sample design for a 1,750 square foot, 3 bedroom, 2 bath, ranch style home that they would be happy to share with a buyer. The foundation, exterior walls and roof structure are in very good condition. The interior will need a total remodel, and the exterior could use some new siding and windows. The property is on public water and there is currently a credit of approximately $5,000.00 towards your future water bills. That's right, $5,000.00! You may not need to pay a water bill for almost 10 years. The septic system will need to be replaced, or you could annex into the City of Arvada and connect to public sewer. This property is truly a diamond in the rough. A smaller house in the neighborhood just recently sold for $475,000, and it was approximately 400 square feet smaller and didn't have the amazing views that this property has. You won't find a nicer property with so much potential. It should be noted that building permits and a certificate of occupancy will need to be obtained prior to living in the house. Please contact listing agent for more detailed information.
