Waterfront living with postcard-worthy views along the shores of Barker Reservoir, where sparkling water meets the snowcapped Indian Peaks beyond. Set in the heart of Nederland, this property offers the best of mountain living with easy access to town amenities. A sunny wraparound deck invites you to slow down and soak in the scenery, while inside, a light-filled open floor plan with vaulted ceilings and expansive windows keeps the views front and center. The kitchen boasts alder cabinetry, including a spacious pantry for ample storage, and updated stainless steel appliances that flow seamlessly into the expansive dining area and living room.Tile floors anchor the kitchen, while warm wood flows through the dining and living areas; radiant-heated floors extend throughout the entire main level. A stone accent wall frames an efficient wood stove, creating a warm gathering space surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows. The main level also includes 2 spacious bedrooms plus a 3/4 guest bath. Upstairs, a private suite offers a walk-in closet, full bath and balcony with seemingly endless views. The walkout lower level offers approximately 600 square feet of finished space-perfect for a recreation room, family room, or additional bedroom-along with a 3/4 guest bath and a private sauna, ideal for unwinding after an active day in the mountains. An additional 600 square feet of unfinished space is currently used as a workshop and laundry area, offering excellent potential for expansion. The oversized lot boasts generous shoreline frontage, striking rock outcroppings and a harmonious mix of level and gently sloping terrain, all complemented by a sun-drenched composite deck in an ideal setting to take in the beauty of the surrounding landscape. While the home could benefit from some updating and personal touches, it presents a rare opportunity to create your own mountain retreat in an exceptional waterfront setting.
