51 Nelson Street

Step into this artistic mountain cabin and fall in love! This oasis with a view is just a half hour from Boulder perched on the hillside in the unique town of Ward, along the spectacular Peak to Peak Hwy. With too many artistic features to list, you can feel the years of love invested in this cabin, full of useful shelves and other creative use of spaces. The bathroom is magical with a 6ft tub and a one of a kind tile surround. With an amazing wood stove you'll enjoy cozy winter nights, and at 9,200' the summers are cool and spectacular. Supplemental propane & electric heat also. The golden aspens will have you spellbound from the picture window while gazing across 30 miles of mountains. Despite the cozy setting amongst the neighbors, this is a private and quiet place, ideal as a weekend getaway, rental, or cozy home. On Town of Ward water that sources from an artisan spring above town, you'll never drink bottled water at home again. This is one of the last community water systems in the country pure enough to remain untreated. Just 10 minutes from beautiful Brainard Lake and Indian Peaks Wilderness this is truly a gateway to these spectacular Rocky Mountains. Nederland is just 20 min away and Eldora Ski area just beyond that. All pics within 10 minutes of the cabin. Call for an explanation of the alternative, indoor, toilet system. This will be a cash sale. A special home on the market for the first time in nearly 40 years.
