Golden Homes with Gilpin RE-1 School District

2 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ 3420228 MLS

This charming mountain A-frame was thoughtfully expanded in the 1980s to give more generous main-level space for a warm, lodge-like feeling. A circular driveway welcomes you home. The large kitchen offers extra cabinetry for storage and a window over the sink, perfect for bird watching. Metal-clad wood casement windows frame the views throughout. Upstairs you'll find two bedrooms: the primary suite boasts a French door opening onto a private west-facing viewing deck, while the second bedroom features great window placement and dual closets for ample storage. Tongue-and-groove ceilings throughout the upper level add to the home's lodge character. Though the current owner heats almost exclusively with a cozy wood-burning stove, a forced-air propane furnace offers effortless backup heat. The water heater and furnace were replaced in 2019, and the durable metal roof can qualify you for discounted insurance rates. Property line is the boundary between Gilpin and Jefferson County. Enjoy views to the east and true privacy in every direction. Nearly 6 acres gives you the peace and quiet everyone searches for, often 15 degrees cooler than the city below. High-speed Wifi is available through Starlink, and the electric service was upgraded with new "hardened" lines in 2026. Gilpin County offers remarkably low taxes, under $1,000 per year, even with all this land. A domestic well supports both horses and outdoor watering. Abundant wildlife roams the property, including deer, turkey, and even moose, adding to the wild beauty of this highly coveted mountain community, where new construction is fetching millions. The property sits near Golden Gate Canyon State Park, with miles of hiking, biking, and horseback trails just beyond your door, plus plenty of your own backyard terrain to explore. And despite the seclusion, you're just 20 minutes from everywhere — Black Hawk, Idaho Springs, Golden, and Evergreen offer dining, shopping, and casinos. Welcome to the Colorado wilderness.

Don't miss this incredible investment opportunity in the Denver foothills. This stunning 2+ acre property, within walking distance of the trails in the Golden Gate Canyon State Park, features two structures, both with significant income potential. The first, a modern, Instagram-able, 2-bed, 2-bath A-Frame, built in 2023, has been an extraordinarily successful Airbnb - with 275 nights booked in the last 12 months at an average of over $500 per night - netting nearly $120,000 over that time. The second, a newly-built 1-bed, 1.5-bath ADU has city lights views and space to spread out. Either could be owner-occupied or rented on a 30-day+ basis, and one of them can be rented on a short term basis with a Gilpin County STR permit (and without a wait if owner-occupied). Assuming steady performance from the A-Frame as an STR and using very conservative assumptions for the rental of the ADU, you could easily achieve an 8%+ cap rate at this asking price. With a sought-after style you simply won't find anywhere else, privacy, views for miles, and a location practically in the State Park that's only 30 minutes from Golden, less than an hour from central Denver, and just over an hour from DIA, this investment promises enjoyment and performance for years to come whether you're looking for a primary residence with house-hacking potential, a weekend getaway, or an income-producing asset with upside for your portfolio.
