Public Remarks: This is simply one of the best properties in Boulder County. The spectacular log home sits on just over 35 pastoral acres just outside of downtown Lyons! Although you're only a few minutes from downtown, you feel like you're a world away on this private, beautifully landscaped retreat. The log home interior will make every evening feel like a night at a luxurious mountain lodge with the soaring rock fireplace in the living and serene master suite on the main floor. The kitchen and gathering areas will inspire you to plan holiday dinners and backyard bbq's on the deck overlooking the small pond and cascading water feature. Large walkout basement with TV room, guest rooms, office and huge mud and storage room! Bring your toys! There is a detached 2-car garage with over 2,000 sq.ft. you can use for a workshop, art studio or exercise room. And there is an outbuilding for your tractor and extra toys. Beautiful fenced dog run with access door to garage. Whole house generator.
