Hidden Lake views, private lake access and now a $100,000 price adjustment. This is mountain living worth a second look! Some views stop you in your tracks. This is one of them. Overlooking Hidden Lake with a sweeping mountain backdrop, this may be one of the most spectacular views along the entire Peak to Peak. The elevated setting captures water, forest and mountains from nearly every angle, while residents enjoy access to this private alpine lake for fishing & boating. Inside, soaring windows make the scenery part of the home, filling the main living area with natural light. Warm wood accents and a gas fireplace add classic mountain character, while the kitchen and dining spaces flow easily for everyday living and entertaining. Step outside onto the deck and it becomes clear where you will spend much of your time. Morning coffee, wildlife watching, sunset cocktails or simply sitting still for a minute are all considerably better with this backdrop. The flexible floor plan offers plenty of room for full time living, weekend escapes, guests and working from home. A brand new furnace was just installed, adding to substantial improvements including Andersen doors and windows, newer flooring, updated kitchen appliances and sink, newer water heater, remodeled lower level shower, exterior paint and stain, plus extensive land and wildfire mitigation. The driveway was rebuilt to reduce its grade, another practical improvement mountain buyers will appreciate. Adventure starts right outside the door with Hidden Lake and Brainard Lake, Indian Peaks Wilderness and miles of hiking, biking, snowshoeing and exploring nearby. Boulder is an easy trip down the mountain, yet once you are home, it feels worlds away. The photos set the scene. The view in person steals the show.
