Escape to your own slice of Colorado charm with this rustic A-Frame retreat overlooking Hayden Creek, just 60 feet from your back deck. Nestled on a small, private lot adjacent to 2100 acres of BLM land and next to Cutty’s rustic resort, this home radiates vintage character and artistic inspiration. Once the personal studio and haven of a local artist, the property carries a creative energy that’s both peaceful and inspiring. It’s being offered as-is, with a curated collection of personal property negotiable with the sale. Inside, the classic A-Frame design features soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and open living spaces brimming with potential. This inviting mountain cabin is ready for a new owner’s vision and a handyman’s touch to bring it to life. Those seeking an off-grid lifestyle will appreciate the vintage WWII space heater and enameled pellet stove, offering nostalgic yet practical warmth. A true highlight is the three-car detached garage and workshop—perfect for artists, craftsmen, or adventurers needing space for projects, tools, or gear. This versatile structure complements the property’s creative spirit and mountain lifestyle. Adventure begins right outside your door. The nearby Arkansas River—renowned for over 100 miles of Gold Medal Waters—is a paradise for anglers chasing trophy brown & rainbow trout. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the endless nearby recreation: the Arkansas Headwaters Recreation Area offers scenic hiking and biking along the river; the Four Mile Recreation Area boasts over 200 miles of OHV and dirt bike trails through rugged canyons and pine forests; and the Arkansas Hills Trail System near Salida provides year-round mountain biking and hiking on well-maintained singletrack routes. Whether you envision it as an artist’s retreat, a sportsman’s weekend getaway, or your private mountain sanctuary, this A-Frame gem captures the essence of Colorado’s creative, adventurous spirit. Simple living, endless inspiration—welcome home.
