Property Description
Live the Lake Life in the Colorado Mountains
Welcome to 159 Lake Road - a cozy and well-appointed 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom cabin tucked in the sought-after St. Mary's Glacier community near Idaho Springs. Designed with comfort and potential in mind, this home features an open-concept layout, built-in sauna, and French doors that open to a spacious patio with scenic mountain views. The walkout basement offers excellent flexibility - ideal for future rental conversion, guest space, or a private work-from-home setup - and includes a sitting area with a wood-burning fireplace for added warmth and charm.
What truly sets this property apart is its exclusive private access to Lake Quivera, located just behind the home. As a member of the St. Mary's POA, you'll enjoy access to two stocked trout lakes, community-maintained trails for hiking, snowshoeing, and ATV riding, and private roads with year-round maintenance. Whether you're fishing, paddleboarding, or soaking in the alpine scenery, this location is a true recreational haven.
Adventure and charm go hand in hand here. Just 20 minutes down the mountain, historic downtown Idaho Springs offers a vibrant mix of local breweries, artisan shops, and award-winning restaurants, along with attractions like hot springs, gold mine tours, and live music events. It's the perfect spot to spend an afternoon or entertain visiting guests.
For winter fun, Loveland Ski Area is only 30 minutes away, offering affordable lift tickets and terrain for all levels-ideal for families, second-homeowners, or weekend warriors. You're also under an hour to Denver via I-70, making this cabin one of the most accessible getaways on the Front Range.
Whether you're searching for a mountain home with investment potential, a Colorado weekend escape, or a peaceful retreat with private lake access, this home offers a rare blend of rustic charm, recreational access, and modern convenience-surrounded by the unmatched beauty of the Colorado Rockies.
