Creekside Living. Elevated. Ready.

Set along the scenic corridor of Highway 103, this exceptional 5-acre creekside estate parcel offers a rare convergence of natural beauty, privacy, and build-ready infrastructure—just minutes from the charm of Idaho Springs and Denver.

A year-round creek flows through the property, creating a serene, immersive setting, while a carefully positioned building envelope above the flood zone ensures both safety and uninterrupted connection to the landscape. The experience is unmistakably Colorado—crisp air, flowing water, and mountain stillness.

What distinguishes this offering is its readiness. Bridge plans and permits have already been issued & approved. Electric service is on site. City water and sewer are available at the road. The time-consuming and costly groundwork has been completed—allowing you to move directly into design and construction.

Strategic Mountain Location

Positioned for both lifestyle and accessibility:

~35 minutes to Denver

Minutes to Mountain Ski Area

Under an hour to world-class resorts including Breckenridge Ski Resort and Keystone Resort

Close to Echo Lake and the iconic Mount Blue Sky

Investment Perspective

Creekside parcels of this scale and readiness are increasingly scarce. In this corridor, completed homes with similar characteristics routinely exceed $1M+, positioning this property as a compelling entry point for custom home builders, second-home buyers, or long-term investors.

A Rare Opportunity

Land like this is not just purchased—it’s positioned.
