480 Bear Creek Place

Description

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a piece of local history. This 1899 original miner's log cabin has been lovingly restored. Built by a local miner at the turn of the century for his family, it is one of the few remaining log cabins from that era. It sits in Bear Creek canyon, near miles of hiking trails, open spaces and section 16 preserved lands. This unique log home offers the dream of living in the wonder of the woods, with a Creek and trails just steps away, yet it is just minutes from the conveniences of historic Old Colorado City and downtown Colorado Springs. The cabin sits on a small lot requiring minimal maintenance with the wilderness as your playground. Enjoy sitting by the original stone fire place in the pine and log living room. There is a new roof and there are Anderson windows throughout the cabin. Heated floor in bathroom. Cook your meals in the modern kitchen. Separate large studio above one car garage with nothing but canyon out your window. Private, peaceful fenced-in yard. Wildlife and the peace of the front range of the Rockies surrounds you here. You will love it.
