Mountain adventure awaits you just outside of Idaho Springs on this 6.17 acre lot located only 4 ½ miles up Fall River Road. The owner intended to build a home many years ago, but never did. The driveway is in place, but in need of re-clearing. The well and septic are in as well, but never used. This lot features several excellent building sites situated between aspen, pine and rock outcroppings. One of the best features is the sound of Fall River, which is a stones throw over the property line.
Located just minutes from historic downtown Idaho Springs, you’ll have easy access to local restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, and year-round community events. Idaho Springs, known as the Gateway to the Rockies, continues to attract both full-time residents and weekend visitors seeking mountain recreation with convenient access to Denver. Outdoor enthusiasts will feel right at home, with nearby hiking trails, snowshoeing routes, ATV roads, and fishing spots offering endless opportunities to explore the mountains year-round. The area also provides exceptional opportunities for rafting, paddleboarding, camping, wildlife viewing, and world-class mountain biking throughout Clear Creek County. In winter, Echo Mountain and Loveland Ski Area are within easy reach for skiing and snowboarding. Popular attractions such as St. Mary’s Glacier, Indian Hot Springs, and the historic Argo Mill and Gondola are also just a short drive away. With convenient access to I-70, Denver, Summit County, ski resorts, and surrounding mountain communities are all within easy reach, while Idaho Springs maintains the peaceful atmosphere of authentic mountain living. It’s a community where natural beauty, outdoor adventure, and small-town charm come together to create one of Colorado’s most desirable mountain destinations.
