Welcome to Wonderview!! Discover the charm of this 120-year-old cabin in picturesque Estes Park, CO, offering breathtaking views of Longs Peak and other surrounding mountains. Here's your chance to own a slice of Estes History! The centerpiece is the lovely historic log home built in 1904 of local logs & native stone. Its spacious living room is anchored by the fireplace and there are wood floors throughout. And the best part is the covered porch on 3 sides with those views and a collection of rocking chairs for rocking away your evenings. You'll find massive Rock outcroppings to climb on. There's also a separate guest cabin with bathroom. All of it is steeped in rustic mountain charm. The 2.5 acre property stretches down the hill and across the street and is a refuge, with wildlife passing through. And it's easy walking distance to the great restaurants & shopping that Downtown Estes offers, with wineries, breweries & events. It's just a short drive to Rocky Mountain National Park. This historic gem presents a unique opportunity to revitalize a classic retreat. While it requires updating to match modern standards, its timeless character and serene location promise the ultimate escape into nature's mountain beauty. Ideal for those looking to delve into a rewarding renovation project with endless potential. This well-loved home with flowing deck and wavy old glass was a TB Sanatorium back in the days of FO Stanley. And was owned by the James (of the the Elkhorn Lodge) and Hondius families and was sold to the current family in 1943! Here's your chance to carry on the tradition! Home is being sold As Is!
