Your Basecamp for Colorado Mountain Living - Escape to the mountains and embrace year-round adventure in this inviting retreat nestled in the trees of the serene St. Mary’s Glacier community. Just steps from miles of hiking, snowshoeing, and ATV trails—including the popular trek to St. Mary’s Glacier itself—you’ll find a perfect balance of outdoor excitement and peaceful mountain living.
Inside, an open-concept layout welcomes you with a cozy living room that flows seamlessly into the dining area and spacious kitchen, outfitted with stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops. The generous primary suite offers a private escape with a full ensuite bath featuring dual vanities and a large walk-in closet.
Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the main level, while a fourth bedroom downstairs adds flexibility as another bedroom, a rec space, or home gym. Step outside to the expansive back patio with a built-in firepit—perfect for stargazing or unwinding after a day on the trails with room to add a hot tub, cold plunge, or sauna.
The oversized two-car garage has plenty of space for all your mountain toys, and heat tape has already been installed on the roof for worry-free winters.
Just under 20 minutes from historic Idaho Springs—with its charming shops, restaurants, and breweries—and close to five nearby 13ers, the area is a true playground for hiking, biking, and snow sports. Eldora, Winter Park, and Keystone ski resorts are all within reach, making this home the ideal basecamp for your mountain lifestyle. With a current short-term rental license (primary residence), the home offers added flexibility and income potential. Other nearby homes have also seen strong rental performance, making this an appealing option for both personal enjoyment and investment.
