Wake up to the quiet hum of nature, take your morning coffee out on the balcony, and watch the sun light up the meadow below. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath mountain home sits on a rare double lot in the heart of Big Elk Meadows-offering open views, incredible privacy, and a peaceful, intentional way of living.The main floor welcomes you with an open kitchen, dining, and living space where light pours in and windows frame the surrounding landscape. A cozy indoor atrium just off the living area gives you a place to grow fresh herbs, nurture your lemon tree, or simply enjoy a slice of green space all year long.Two bedrooms and a full bath are located on the main level-one with its own private balcony and double closets. Downstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a separate living area with a bar and its own entrance-ideal for visiting friends, extended stays, or creative work-from-home setups.In the winter, curl up by one of three wood-burning fireplaces while the snow falls quietly outside. When the weather warms, take in the mountain air from one of the balconies, perfect for reading, relaxing, or watching the local wildlife pass through the yard. The fenced backyard offers privacy and a safe space for pets. Owned solar panels help keep energy bills low, and recent updates throughout the home mean you can settle in without a long to-do list.Life in Big Elk Meadows is about slowing down, connecting with nature, and being part of a true mountain community. Residents enjoy access to private lakes, trails, tennis courts, and the kind of solitude that's hard to find-just a short drive from Estes Park or Lyons.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
