Welcome to a rare blend of Colorado character, privacy and freedom, set on 1.29 acres with mountain views and NO HOA. This handcrafted log home offers country living with space to breathe, and a lifestyle that doesn’t come with most properties! Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings, skylights, rich log walls and beetle-kill pine hardwood floors create a warm, elevated mountain aesthetic. A striking stacked limestone fireplace anchors the living space, while the adjoining sunroom offers a peaceful retreat overlooking the property. The updated kitchen and bathrooms bring a refined, luxury feel to the home while preserving the authentic cabin character. Outside, an expansive rebuilt Trex deck captures southern exposure, mountain views and Colorado sunsets while overlooking the private backyard. Gather around the firepit beneath the stars, enjoy a round of horseshoes or simply take in the privacy of your own acreage. Bring the RV, boat, camper and recreational toys. A dedicated RV pad includes water and septic hookups, with 50-amp electrical service available. An attached 2-car garage plus detached 3-car garage provides exceptional space for vehicles, hobbies, storage or a workshop. Thoughtful improvements include updated kitchen, vetrazzo counters, remodeled bathrooms, new carpet, metal roof, 2 mini-splits, keeping energy costs down, recessed lighting with dimmers, rebuilt front porch, covered firewood storage and a newly paved asphalt driveway completed July 2026. With NO HOA, there is room to live differently, whether that means chickens, recreational vehicles, outdoor entertaining or simply more space between neighbors. Carter Lake is approximately 15 minutes away, with convenient access to I-25. Located in Berthoud, ideally positioned between Longmont and Loveland, this property balances country tranquility with Front Range convenience. Private. Distinctive. Unmistakably Colorado. This is elevated country living!
