Nothing else like it! Loaded with character this spiral shaped retreat cabin on 2.5 acres with separate 900 sq ft studio is located near Gold Lake Ranch 20 miles from Boulder. Completely private and surrounded by National Forest, and miles of hiking trails, bordering vast meadows with ponds and abundant wildlife yet close to a county maintained road. An observation deck with giant views is on the property too. Bring your telescope. It's rare to find this kind of "must see" property.

Public Remarks
RARE FIND. Nothing else like it...Off the grid, artistic cabin, with separate 900 sq ft studio surrounded by National forest 30ish minutes to Boulder. Beautiful wildflower meadows, abundant wildlife, 100 mile views, and untraveled trails, one mile from Gold Lake Ranch. Off the beaten path yet close to a county maintained road. Significant infrastructure upgrades throughout. If you want privacy don't miss this one. Step up to the High Country.
