Tucked among towering pines on a wooded 0.71-acre lot in Village Acres, this thoughtfully updated ranch home offers the kind of mountain living people come to Estes Park for – quiet, comfortable, and surrounded by nature. Elk frequently wander through the neighborhood, and the Rocky Mountains feel like a constant presence just beyond the trees. The main level is warm and inviting, featuring wood floors, radiant heat, and a cozy fireplace, perfect after a day in the mountains. The efficient kitchen blends function and character with a gas range and a striking live-edge island, opening seamlessly to the dining and living spaces. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms on the main floor allow for easy, single-level living. Downstairs, the walkout lower level expands the possibilities with a spacious recreation room, a fourth bedroom, and a 3/4 bath. Step outside to the expansive composite deck, where mature pines, native grasses, and a spring-fed pond create a peaceful, private backdrop for morning coffee or evening gatherings. A detached two-car garage provides plenty of room for vehicles, outdoor gear, and mountain toys, while generous storage throughout keeps everything organized. Quiet, practical, and easy to enjoy, this is a home that fits the Estes Park lifestyle-close to nature, rich in character, and designed for both everyday comfort and weekend escape.
