For Sale by owner

This is a rare opportunity to own your own piece of the Rocky Mountains. This insulated year 'round cabin has it all:  beautiful river frontage in an area where you can keep the trout you catch, a private natural park for use only by Waltonia residents, and a National Forest behind the cabin with abundant wildlife.

This Cabin features a low-maintenance true stucco exterior, a screened-in wrap-around porch for enjoying the outdoors even during unfavorable weather, (no mosquitos allowed!) and a great moss rock fireplace to warm your winter evenings.  Outdoor patios and fire pits will enhance your enjoyment of the cool summer evenings made complete by roasting marshmallows.  All of this in the midst of a mature, natural landscape, including huge pine trees and abundant lilacs.

This Cabin includes a reliable water well drilled to a depth of 220 feet, producing an abundant 7.5 gallons per minute, far in excess of most wells in the area. The well is court- approved for use in watering the front yard and lilacs, so you can enjoy a cool, green yard all summer. Good, well-maintained roads provide year 'round accessibility to your "home away from home."

There is always something to do at the cabin. Enjoy fishing, hiking, bird and animal viewing, gardening, playing cards and putting together puzzles in the dining area, all the while luxuriating in your great view of the mountains and river, the refreshing clean air, and the comforting sounds of nature. Or enjoy relaxing on one of the outdoor patios, reading books and magazines and watching the chipmunks scurry about. Bring friends and family up to the cabin to play games and go fishing, or enjoy the rejuvinating solitude by yourself.  The screened-in porch is a great place to just sit and watch the deer, elk and bighorn sheep.

This cabin was lovingly built in 1927 using local-obtained materials. We modernized the home in 1994 by adding insulation in the walls, ceilings and attic.  We also added satellite TV and phone, and paid to have the home brought up to code with new electrical wiring throughout, as well as copper plumbing. We hired Hersh and Sons to drill the water well to give us a reliable, clean and good tasting source of water. In 2004 we carpeted the upstairs stairway and bedrooms to give them a warmer and more cozy feeling.

We have enjoyed the company of wonderful neighbors who have become close friends. There are some full-time residents on our road, but the majority either come up only on weekends or during the summer to enjoy the mountains.

This is truly a rare opportunity to purchase a beautiful historic home in such a beautiful area. When we bought this home it was only on the market two days before it went under contract, due to the desirability of this unique home.
