Longs Peak and Meeker Mountain greet you first. The quiet comes second. This is just over an acre in High Drive Heights, one of the oldest and most iconic neighborhoods in Estes Park.The home began as a 1926 cabin and grew the way the best mountain homes do, one thoughtful addition at a time, each built to match the last. Wood floors and vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings run through the living and dining rooms, where a gas stove identical to the wood-burning Vermont Castings model it replaced sits on the brick hearth. The sunroom holds the light all day, with a wet bar, a tile floor, and woodwork matched to the rest of the house, and it tends to become the room people use most. Antique doors saved from the Stanley Hotel open into a fourth bedroom that doubles as a study, its Murphy bed folding away for overnight guests or a quiet day of work.Across four bedrooms and three baths are the kind of details that only show up in homes built by hand: built-in window seats with storage tucked underneath, and heated floors in two of the baths that take the edge off a January morning. Outside, a three-car garage with 12-foot bays gives the trucks and the gear room to spread out.Out back, a private brick patio sits at the corner of the lot, beside rock formations and ponderosa pines that are part of the property, some of those pines older than the cabin itself. It is the kind of spot where you take your coffee and watch the morning come up over the rocks.Deer move through. In spring, the elk calve right here on the hillside. It is private, it is quiet, and it feels a long way from anywhere.Downtown sits 2.1 miles away, and the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park is 2.7, reached without driving through town. Close to everything, a world away from the crowds. This is an older home with real history and real character, on a piece of Estes Park that is gettingharder to find. Come see it in person, and let the place make its own case.
