Want the best of both worlds...how about 5 minutes to magical Estes Park while fishing the river from your very own deck surrounded by national forest and wildlife. This 1910 cabin has been renovated 3 times over its long life while keeping all of its charm. Original sections of the cabin have been preserved including cabinets, nooks, walls and windows for those that have a fondness for history. This cabin was one of only a handful located on the primitive road into Estes and the brand new Stanley Hotel built in 1909. Markings in the cabin celebrated the victory of Japan WWII. With all that said this cabin is not lacking for updates. Newer roof, gutters, paint and granite countertops also a new well pump within the last few years. There are 2 trex decks to sit and enjoy the river and tons of wildlife. The crawl space has been insulated with class A fire rated spray foam sealant insulation. There is a large and very private upper level primary bedroom with tons of windows and private balcony overlooking the river. Large picture windows align the spacious open living and dining room with unbeatable views of the river. How about an additional separate sitting room that can be used as a cozy book den, game of chess or converted to an office. 11x8 entry foyer is also ready for relaxing and opens to the deck on the river. There is a one car detached garage, rare for canyon riverfront properties. Easy direct access, no 4 wheel drive needed here. Fully furnished and ready to move in! If you are looking for rustic, cozy canyon living with a dash of history this is your home.
