Public Remarks: Hide-away cabin on 3.34 acres with over 200 feet of frontage on James Creek. Ideal for summer use. Tucked into meadows and stands of aspens. Power source is a generator, and toilet is composting , home needs a septic or vault. Great alternative to summer getaways, 40 minutes to Boulder with no tunnel or I-70, a relaxing drive. Fish in the creek or just enjoy its sounds. One of a kind property!
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
