640 Macgregor Avenue Unit 8, Estes Park, CO 80517

Out back, the deck looks onto Black Canyon Creek, close enough that you hear the water before you see it. Mornings bring deer to the edge and waterfowl to the pond nearby. As an end unit, it has a little more room to breathe than most.Inside, the open main floor gathers around a moss rock fireplace that earns its keep on cold evenings. The whole space has been freshened up, new paint, new kitchen counters, cabinets given a new coat, and a new mountain mural across the living room wall. The three bedrooms sit together upstairs, with two baths, and a half bath serves the main level below.Step out the door and you are twelve minutes on foot from downtown Estes Park, its restaurants, shops, and the Riverwalk. The Fall River entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park sits under ten minutes away, so trails and scenic drives become part of the everyday, not a planned trip. Mature trees and rock formations wrap the property and keep it private while you are still in town.This is a Rock Acres condo, which means the exterior, the snow, and the grounds are handled for you, along with trash, lawn care, and water and sewer. The community permits no rentals of any kind, which keeps things quiet and residential, a real draw if you are here to live rather than to lease.A creek out back, a national park up the road, and a town you can walk to. Some places you visit. This is one you settle into.
