Rare opportunity to own a fully furnished home near the Gold Medal South Platte River!

For less than a mountain condo, you can own one of the few private properties along the South Platte River near Decker's Co. This completely updated cabin offers you a great get-away from either Denver or Colorado Springs. A short drive puts you in a peaceful retreat with a river on one side and the Pike National Forest on the other. Know as a Gold Medal River, the fish are big and the public access is fantastic.

Condition: Situated on a 1/2 acre parcel, this cabin has been updated from the walls out. Everything on the inside was new in or around 2004 or more recently. The 90% efficient furnace and air conditioner are just a few years old. The roof is recent. Significant investments have been made to add a covered gazebo (can be a carport), a shed and a 1400 gallon cistern, filled from a well. The septic was installed in 2004. It has been recently pumped and inspected. The 500 gallon propane tank is yours to keep. A new generator is also included, and it can run off the big tank. You won't be left in the dark.

Interior: This property is offered fully furnished and stocked. The kitchen has plates, cutlery, cups, pots, pans, stove, oven, coffee machine and more. The cabinets are hickory and have custom handles. There are custom scenic tiles on the back wrap. The dining set, furniture, beds, linens, towels, and decor items are all included. To start living here, just bring your food! The big screen TV, and the Starlink dish are included. The cabin has hickory wood floors and the ceiling in the main area is locally sourced pine. The original logs highlight the living room. The fireplace has an insert that makes for cozy winter nights. Firewood is included. Almost everything is run off WIFI, so you can control everything remotely. HVAC, water heater, 5 security cameras, cistern level, leak detectors and even the sprinkler system can be monitored and controled remotely.

There is a master bedroom with a king bed and built-in shelves. The second bedroom has a bunk bed and a 3rd bedroom is available. (It is currently in use as a storeage area). The couch is a queen bed, so you can sleep 6 people or more. 

Amenities and inclusions: So many! Since this was not a full time residence, we used 5 Ring cameras to monitor the property. In the log shed you will find tools, yard items, and general stuff you need to keep a place going. There are two tarp covered storage units. In one you will find a lawn mower, a brush hog, spare chairs and work bench. You also get a relatively new John Deere tractor mower. I am including a classic Sears trailer so you can haul anything you need back and forth. The septic tank has an RV black water connection so you can park and dump an RV and save a lot of storage fees. You also do not have water and sewer bills. The internet is provided by a new Starlink dish which you can take over for the $85 monthly fee. Idea- Get a YouTube TV subscription which you can use at differentl locations, and you are good to go. The propane grill and charcoal grill are included and so is the propane firepit. The table and chairs are included.  Further up the hill is a table and chairs which make a great scenic viewing area including the star filled skies at night. The Pike National Forest is just a short distance up-hill. Deer and elk are common visitors.

The retail strip know as Decker's is one mile away. It has a restaurant/bar, fly shop, liquor store and general store.

Background info: In the 1980's the Denver Water Board decided to build a dam about 12 miles downstream and flood two forks of the South Platte. This required them to buy out or force out all the property owners up to and including Decker's. They went through the Valley and told owners they needed to sell or face Eminent Domain seizure. About 80% of the Valley took the offer. Due to last minute politics, the dam was never built and the Denver Water Board became the big property owner to this day. They can not legally buy or sell property at this time. So, private property ownership is very limited, which makes this property special. I have invested at least $150,000 over the years improving and upgrading this property. 

I am selling this property 'by owner'. I was a Realtor for almost 50 years. I will pay a selling agent. Due to the complexity of the property, I will do initial showings so I can explain how things work. SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY, PLEASE.
