Rare A1-zoned condo approved for short-term rentals-with the unique ability to self-manage. While it's not currently being used as a rental, a reputable manager handling the neighboring unit reports $75,000/year in gross income. This dreamy 2 bed, 2 bath end-unit condo is tucked away in the heart of Bear Creek and offers a perfect mix of charm, comfort, and prime location. Part of an exclusive six-unit riverfront enclave, it's surrounded by soaring pines and the tranquil sound of flowing water-a true hidden gem in Estes Park. Step outside to enjoy a spacious yard, oversized deck, and a cozy shared picnic area, ideal for morning coffee or a sunset glass of wine. Inside, it's ready to serve as your peaceful mountain escape or a strong income-producing property. Just a short walk to Wapiti Restaurant and downtown, and only minutes from the Fall River Entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park-this is Estes Park living at its most relaxed, scenic, and convenient.
