Public Remarks: Wonderful cabin built by builder/owner above James Creek with South property line in the middle of James Creek (approx. 260 ft). Nice sunny location with hillside meadow, old growth Ponderosa & river noise to enjoy! A must see location just 35 minutes to Boulder. Upgraded septic just completed,generator in separate out building, gas refrigerator and stove (to save electricity), and all furnishing in the house. Well is a permitted spring well. Due to seasonal cabin a cash offer is required.
