Rare Opportunity: Permitted Riverside Short-Term Rental & Architectural Gem. Experience the ultimate Colorado retreat at the Colorado River Dome Estate in Bailey. Situated on nearly one acre with 100 feet of private Gold Medal river access, this property is a proven asset—currently operating as a high-performing, permitted Short Term Rental with a Top 5% ranking and over 65 perfect reviews on Air BnB. The Main Residence (The Dome): A recently renovated (2024), 1,830 sq. ft. Mid-Century Modern geodesic dome. This designer-clad space features soaring ceilings and floor-to-ceiling folding sunroom doors that frame the mountain landscape. The chef’s kitchen is fully equipped with induction cooking and a Breville espresso machine. The layout includes a main-floor California King suite with rain shower, an attached bonus twin-bed room, a queen guest room, and a dramatic loft suite with a dedicated office nook. Two bedrooms have en suite 3/4 baths, one has a 3/4 bath just outside the door. The Studio Tiny Home: Overlooking the river, this separate dwelling offers a full kitchen, full bath with soaking tub, Murphy bed, and radiant floor heat—ideal for guest overflow or visitors. Entertainment & Wellness: The 2-car detached garage has been reimagined as the "Wandering Bear Den"—a 480 sq. ft. social hub featuring an 85" TV, arcade classics (NFL Blitz, pinball), and an Xbox. Outside, indulge in a 7-person saltwater hot tub, riverside electric cedar barrel sauna, and a stainless-steel Japanese soaking tub. Prime Location: Skip the I-70 traffic. Located less than an hour from Denver and Breckenridge, and only minutes to local food, drinks, shopping & hiking, as well as to world-class wedding venues like Deer Creek Valley Ranch. Turn-Key Status: Available fully furnished with active permit, established rental history, and 30MB Wi-Fi—perfect for a seamless transition. This property has only been on the market once in the past 35 years!
