A jewel in the mountains! This beautifully remodeled log-sided cabin combines rustic mountain character with the comforts and finishes of a much newer home. Tucked into peaceful Chalk Creek Canyon on a quiet dead-end road near the end of the cul-de-sac, and surrounded by mountains, wildlife and endless opportunities for recreation, this is the Colorado cabin people dream about. Relax on the covered front porch and take in the view up Chalk Creek Canyon while listening to nearby Chalk Creek. Mt. Princeton Hot Springs Resort is within walking distance, with HOMEOWNER AND GUEST PASSES TO THE RESORT INCLUDED in the association dues! Nearby pond and horse-trail paths add even more ways to enjoy this special mountain setting. Inside, the open floor plan and vaulted ceilings make the home feel surprisingly spacious. Skylights that open, luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, and a river-rock wood-burning fireplace create a warm, inviting mountain atmosphere. The completely remodeled kitchen features granite slab countertops and soft-close cabinetry and drawers. After a day in the mountains, unwind in the jetted tub—another touch that makes this cabin feel like a true mountain retreat. Recent improvements continue outside with brand-new Trex decking in the backyard, a custom sliding glass laundry room door, a flagstone patio and outdoor fire pit. A new roof with 50-year Owens Corning Storm Series architectural shingles was installed in 2021. Peaceful, beautifully updated and surrounded by some of Colorado's most spectacular scenery, this is more than a cabin—it's the quintessential cabin in the woods.
Set on 35.34 private acres in Mesa Antero Estates, this extraordinary custom mountain residence was designed by Barrett Studio Architects to embrace its remarkable setting, with unobstructed views spanning the Collegiate Peaks, Sawatch Range, Arkansas Hills, Mosquito Range, Buffalo Peaks, and Arkansas River Valley. Thoughtful passive solar design and energy efficient Structural Insulated Panel construction complement a home where expansive windows bring mountain scenery and abundant natural light into nearly every room. The dramatic living room features vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, several wood stoves, and walls of glass. Designed for gathering and entertaining, the spacious kitchen offers custom hickory cabinetry, quartz countertops, abundant storage and workspace, double ovens, gas cooktop, stainless appliances, and generous custom window seating overlooking the surrounding landscape. The private upper level primary suite captures 360 degree views and features vaulted tongue and groove ceiling detail, dual walk-in closets, built in window seating, and an ensuite bath with radiant floor heat. Outdoor living is equally exceptional with multiple patios, a private fenced courtyard, custom stonework, and extensive forest health and fire mitigation work throughout the property.

The property also offers outstanding future potential with a newer three-bedroom septic system already installed, an in-house use well, and ample room to expand or create your dream mountain getaway while preserving the charm of the original cabin. Whether you're seeking a peaceful seasonal retreat, a basecamp for year-round outdoor recreation, or a legacy property to enjoy for generations, this rare Chalk Creek frontage cabin delivers an unforgettable Colorado mountain experience in one of Chaffee County's most treasured alpine settings.

Imagine owning the historic Rob Roy lode and millsite claim, with a patented grant signed into record by Theodore Roosevelt in 1904. These secluded yet accessible historical patented copper & silver mining claim and mill-site parcels are surrounded by the San Isabel National Forest. The millsite parcel borders Chalk Creek! Decreed water rights for 1 CFS of water from ANOTHER creek that runs right through this property, creating a lush and green mountain oasis, and an abundance of wildflowers in the summer. There is a sturdy dry cabin built with beautiful historical bricks, and it has a solid metal roof. This cozy cabin with a vaulted ceiling offers two beautiful wood stoves and has designated areas for bathing, dining, sleeping, and cooking. You can hear and see Chalk Creek through the windows. This project was well-planned with a stone patio, stone walkways, multiple stone terraces, and retaining walls surrounding this charming abode. An adjacent structure houses a one-car garage, 2 firewood storage areas, a utility shed, and a separate storage area. The millsite parcel offers 4 pristine acres of treed creekside paradise with a private pathway that leads directly into the National Forest along Chalk Creek. The mining parcel is on the other side of the road, very close to the millsite parcel, but not quite touching it. You can easily walk from one to the other. The separate creek has a great flow and starts near a beautiful waterfall northwest of these properties. This creek can still flow through September. All showings must be by appointment only and shown with a licensed real estate agent. There is surveillance at these properties. No trespassing, please.
