Idaho Springs, CO 80452 310 Virginia St

Nestled on more than a third of an acre in historic Idaho Springs, this enchanting three-bedroom residence perfectly balances mountain serenity with small-town charm. The expansive lot backs directly onto city open space, offering breathtaking panoramas of the peaks, valley floor, and town below from its coveted southern exposure. While the yard already features striking rockwork, it serves as a canvas for future terraced gardens, a gazebo, or a deck designed for quintessential outdoor living, complemented by a front yard prepped for a secluded xeriscape courtyard. Inside, natural light bathes every room, highlighting gleaming wood floors and a thoughtfully updated kitchen complete with modern appliances, granite countertops, and space for a cozy bistro table that flows into a bright dining area. Practicality meets style with a dedicated rear mudroom and laundry, while the small unfinished basement and carport provide ample storage and off-street parking. Adventure is literally at your doorstep with hiking trails and bike paths within a couple of blocks of the home. You are just minutes from the Virginia Canyon Mountain Bike Park, rafting, zip-lining, and the new Idaho Springs gondola. Motorized enthusiasts can explore hundreds of miles of nearby forest service trails, while the historic Georgetown Loop Railroad and Indian Hot Springs offer a slower pace for relaxation. Perfectly situated for commuters and skiers alike, you are just 35 minutes from Denver, 25 minutes from Loveland Ski Area, and within 90 minutes of seven world-class resorts. After a day on the slopes or exploring local brewpubs and Central City casinos, return to this quiet, private retreat that serves as the definitive gateway to the Rockies.
