Exceptional location just around the corner from the swimming lake dock. Gutted 816 sq ft A-frame with a nice roof, windows and pretty open beam ceilings, ready for your vision. Featuring 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, the home sits on a large, flat lot with direct access to the Royal Gorge trail system—perfect for year-round outdoor adventure. Just a short walk from the swimming lake, on the sunny east side of the lake, this property offers a rare combination of location, charm, and potential. The dock off Sierra is just around the block, perfect for an evening cocktail or a ball toss into the lake with the dog. The interior has been largely gutted, providing a blank canvas for your custom mountain retreat or investment project. Whether you’re looking to create a cozy getaway or a modern alpine cabin, this home is the ideal starting point in the most desirable and peaceful neighborhood on Donner Summit.
