Nicknamed "The Treehouse", this mountain modern cabin has stunning views of Montgomery Reservoir and the mountains.
Upper Placer Valley may be the hottest residential area around Breckenridge: large, quiet, well forested lots with amazing views and a laid back atmosphere. Convenient to Route 9 for access to Breckenridge, Colorado Springs, and Denver but without the crowds. . . "Close to town, but a world away." New builds in this area are multi-million dollar homes and short term renting is still allowed here.
This cabin has been renovated 2022-2025 with new appliances including new water heater, gas oven, washer/dryer, microwave, fridge, electric heaters, plus new septic, carpet and furniture. The well, crawlspace, foundation, electric, and roof have been inspected and/or improved. The driveway was rebuilt for added parking. Well water passed quality tests with no filters needed.
Starlink high speed internet is connected to smart thermostats, Ring cameras, the water heater, and leak detectors for peace of mind. Beautiful woodburning stove with years of split wood at the ready.
Incredible wild flowers, birds, and wildlife on the property with easy access to hiking, biking, fishing, snowshoeing and skiing out the front door. 500 square foot deck with epic views. 165 square foot shed.
Additional acreage available with adjacent lots for sale.
