Creekside Living. Elevated. Ready.
Set along the scenic corridor of Highway 103, this exceptional 5-acre creekside estate parcel offers a rare convergence of natural beauty, privacy, and build-ready infrastructure—just minutes from the charm of Idaho Springs and Denver.
A year-round creek flows through the property, creating a serene, immersive setting, while a carefully positioned building envelope above the flood zone ensures both safety and uninterrupted connection to the landscape. The experience is unmistakably Colorado—crisp air, flowing water, and mountain stillness.
What distinguishes this offering is its readiness. Bridge plans and permits have already been issued & approved. Electric service is on site. City water and sewer are available at the road. The time-consuming and costly groundwork has been completed—allowing you to move directly into design and construction.
Strategic Mountain Location
Positioned for both lifestyle and accessibility:

Investment Perspective
