Imagine an expansive riverside 22-acre retreat with back yard access to a network of literally hundreds of miles of trails for avid hikers, mountain bikers and equestrian enthusiasts. Located in Buffalo Creek just south of Pine and about 40 miles from the western Denver metro area, this property is set along the river corridor with lush grass pastures and backed by majestic mountain landscapes in every direction and offers vast recreational opportunities for its residents and guests. The N. Fork of the S. Platte River is a hidden gem of a destination for excellent fly fishing for rainbows & browns and the property's approximately 150 feet of river frontage provides an outstanding opportunity to practice your fly casting or have a warm-up interlude before heading out for broader fishing outings available on nearby public access points both up and down stream. A partially updated modest cabin set amongst the pines and aspens is a quaint rustic get away for immediate use or perhaps provide intermediate lodging while a new primary home is built! Cabin has power, community water source and septic, remodeled main level bath, living room with updated flooring, paint/trim and railings. Kitchen with rustic pine cabinets with new range, frig and countertops. Original cast iron & enamel wood stove/cooktop still functional for rustic style cooking! Bedrooms with newer paint and trim. Create your own game/play room on the lower level extra room with its own entry into a large extra room with its own wood burning stove, finish the bathroom; and ready to go! View your horses grazing on the open meadow along the river from the front deck along with the sun glimmering on the granite outcroppings in the background. Nestled at the end of the road but right off paved, year-round access this site boasts peaceful seclusion for an idyllic escape or primary residence.
