Description
The perfect Colorado mountain getaway awaits in the charming historic town of Pitkin! Perched above the banks of beautiful Quartz Creek on the edge of town, this inviting mountain cabin offers the ideal blend of privacy, comfort, and year-round recreation. Wake each morning to the soothing sounds of the creek, enjoy your coffee from one of the expansive decks, and take advantage of easy creek access for world-class fishing just steps from your door. The thoughtfully designed main level features a warm and welcoming open-concept living and dining area highlighted by beautiful hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and a charming freestanding gas log fireplace that creates the perfect atmosphere after a day of exploring the mountains. The adjacent kitchen offers solid wood cabinetry, tile countertops, and traditional Mexican tile flooring, combining rustic character with lasting durability. The spacious primary bedroom and full bathroom are conveniently located on the main level, making single-level living a breeze. An enclosed entry serves as an effective airlock, helping keep cold winter air out of the home while providing a bright and inviting transition space. Featuring large windows, matching Mexican tile flooring, and its own private access to the expansive back deck, this versatile entry allows you to step outside and enjoy the mountain setting without passing through the main living area. Just beyond, the full-length deck offers the perfect place to dine, entertain, or simply relax while taking in the breathtaking mountain scenery and the soothing sounds of Quartz Creek. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms, each with its own private balcony overlooking the surrounding mountain landscape and Quartz Creek. A shared bathroom features picturesque creek views, making even everyday routines feel relaxing and serene. The walk-out basement provides exceptional flexibility. Currently used as a well-appointed workshop and storage area, the space could easily be transformed into a bunk room, recreation space, hobby room, or additional guest accommodations. From the basement, step onto the expansive covered lower deck that extends the full length of the home, creating a shaded outdoor retreat ideal for relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying the peaceful creekside setting in any season. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence, a weekend escape, or a mountain vacation home, this exceptional cabin delivers the authentic Colorado lifestyle. With direct access to Quartz Creek, endless outdoor recreation, and the welcoming community of Pitkin just moments away, this is a rare opportunity to own a true mountain retreat.
