7869 s turkey creek road

Welcome to the Creek Chalet—a one of a kind mountain sanctuary where history, nature, and opportunity meet. Tucked along the flowing waters of Turkey Creek, this 1.71-acre estate in Morrison is more than a home—it’s a story waiting to be continued. Rumor has it President Eisenhower himself was once a guest at this historic 1929 cabin, built by a prominent Denver family as a summer retreat. Nearly a century later, this legacy property has been fully reimagined with modern luxury, yet retains the charm that makes it unforgettable. The land is a rare find—your lot spans both sides of Turkey Creek, offering unmatched privacy, serene views, and the soothing sounds of water weaving through your own backyard. Picture morning coffee with the creek as your backdrop, or evenings around the outdoor fireplace while elk, foxes, and deer roam past. The main residence is filled with character: vaulted ceilings, wide-plank wood floors, and massive picture windows that frame evergreen-draped peaks. The heart of the home—a stunning open-concept kitchen—features custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless appliances built for gatherings. The primary suite feels like a spa escape, complete with a granite-finished soaking tub and treetop views. What truly sets this property apart? A fully permitted, detached 400 sq ft ADU—professionally designed w/ vaulted ceilings, a sleeping loft, sink, and washer/dryer hookups. Whether you use it as a short-term rental, guest house, private studio, or remote office, it’s income-ready and in high demand. Outdoors, a spacious deck, swing, and level grassy area make this a dream for entertaining or unplugged living. There’s room to park an RV, build out more living space, or simply enjoy the natural beauty of mature pines and wildflower meadows. With its rich rental history, timeless architecture, and prime location just off Hwy 285, this is your chance to own a slice of Colorado history and a versatile mountain investment property in one.
