Iconic Colorado log home in a peaceful creek-side setting, offered fully furnished, professionally decorated, and currently operating as a successful short-term rental. Thoughtfully built with quality custom construction, this private mountain retreat delivers the best of both worlds: a quiet, tucked-away feel with easy paved-road access just 7 minutes to I-70 and downtown Idaho Springs. Inside, the open floor plan is warm, inviting, and beautifully designed for both everyday living and mountain getaways. The vaulted living room features skylights, rich log details, and a stunning stone fireplace with a wood-burning insert and log mantle. The spacious dining area flows into a large kitchen complete with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, generous cabinetry, and a butler's pantry. The main-floor primary suite offers a true retreat with a large bedroom, walk-in closet, and 5-piece bath. Also on the main level is an office/studio, currently used as a bunk room, plus a convenient half bath. The lower level includes two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, beautiful slate flooring, and a home theater/bonus room perfect for movie nights, guests, games, or additional lounge space. Step outside to enjoy the expansive deck overlooking the creek and garden area below. Soak in the hot tub, listen to the water, and take in the private mountain setting year-round. The oversized heated two-car garage features 8-foot vehicle doors and offers plenty of room for vehicles, gear, and mountain toys. With owned solar transferring to the buyer, a strong short-term rental history, furnishings included, and an unbeatable Colorado setting, this is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey mountain retreat just minutes from Idaho Springs.
