Representing an exceptionally rare opportunity, this estate offers multiple residences on the Big Thompson River—completely outside FEMA-designated floodplains.

The iconic Rim Rock House, perched above the river and named after the towering eastern cliff wall, offers breathtaking views of 70-foot waterfalls from both levels. A wall of windows fills the home with light, and a cozy gas fireplace adds ambiance to the main living space. The Gateway House is a private 1,346-sq-foot residence with a beautifully landscaped yard, privacy fencing, and a detached 600-sq-foot cottage—perfect for guests or creative space. The custom-built “Main Home” offers over 2,000 sq feet of comfortable living space and features a cozy wood stove, blending rustic elegance with functionality.
