This charming mountain cabin sits on over 3 private acres in beautiful Placer Valley, offering the perfect blend of rustic charm, thoughtful updates, and massive views of the Continental Divide's majestic 14,000-foot peaks. Featuring 2 bedrooms with an additional non-conforming bedroom, 2 bathrooms, an attached 2-car garage, and a spacious living area, this property is ideal as a full-time home, mountain getaway, or investment opportunity. Surrounded by towering pines, the cabin welcomes you with warm wood finishes, two wood-burning stoves, and large picture windows that perfectly frame the incredible mountain scenery. The kitchen opens to the living area, creating a comfortable space to gather. The current owners have completed numerous improvements, including a new roof, natural gas installation with an on-demand water heater, well and septic system upgrades, remodeled tile showers, updated kitchen appliances, three new exterior doors, a new Trex front deck with railing, freshly stained and painted exterior, and a leveled driveway with new gravel—making this home truly move-in ready. Enjoy fly fishing on the Middle Fork South Platte River just across the street, with endless hiking, biking, and outdoor recreation right outside your door. Conveniently located just minutes from Alma, 15 minutes to Fairplay, and only 30 minutes to Breckenridge, this mountain retreat offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and year-round adventure.
