Escape to your own private mountain retreat at 812 Soda Creek Rd-just 45 minutes from Denver and minutes from Indian Hot Springs, Virginia Canyon's custom-built bike trails, and a $71 million gondola project already breaking ground in Idaho Springs. This turnkey property is more than just a getaway-it's a proven income producer, generating over $85,000 annually as a short-term rental. The current income doesn't even include the walk-out basement and additional bathroom, offering a major opportunity to increase revenue. Converting this space into a game room, bunk area, or guest suite could significantly boost rental potential.
Enjoy the $100K kitchen remodel as well as a thoughtful series of major upgrades, including a new fridge (2019), fresh interior paint (2020), new septic system with permit (2020), new water treatment system (2022) with manuals, new washer/dryer (2022), new well pump and pressure tank (Oct 2023) with documentation, a custom barrel sauna built in Dec 2024, and most recently a new permitted water heater (June 2025) and new dishwasher (June 2025). The home sits on nearly 5 acres of wooded, private land with expansive mountain views, an open living area with wood-burning stove, and a spacious deck perfect for soaking in the scenery.
An active short-term rental permit for the primary dwelling is in place through the end of 2025, with documentation ready for easy renewal in 2026. The seller also has a strong calendar of future Airbnb bookings that can be transferred to the new owner, allowing you to hit the ground running from day one. The property includes architectural plans for a future addition with a garage and expanded living space-offering even more potential for equity and income growth.
Whether you're looking to invest, escape, or both-this is your chance to secure a well-performing Airbnb in a market poised for rapid growth. Idaho Springs is quickly emerging as Colorado's next destination mountain town.
