Property Description


0.18 Acres Lot
Built in 1955
Under Contract
1 Units

Double the Charm, Double the Opportunity Why settle for one when you can have two? This Duplex on Shady Lane offers flexibility and income potential in one smart package. Live in one unit full-time or make it your personal mountain getaway, then let the second unit help pay the mortgage. Or keep both as long-term rentals and grow your investment portfolio right here in Estes Park. Inside, warm wood tones and a wood stove insert create cozy comfort throughout the seasons. Storage is plentiful, with built-ins, generous closets, an unfinished storage room on the lower level, and an oversized one-car garage ready for your workshop or gear. Step outside and take in the views from the deck overlooking an open meadow, where elk and deer frequently wander by. Come summer, it's also the perfect perch for Estes Park's 4th of July fireworks show. The location couldn't be better! Stroll or bike to the 18-hole golf course, Stanley Park, Lake Estes, the Community Center, and downtown's vibrant shops, galleries, restaurants and watering holes. You're close to everything yet tucked in a peaceful setting. And beyond the appeal of everyday mountain living, this duplex delivers serious investment potential: dual income streams, long-term rental stability, and the chance to support the wonderful people who call Estes Park home year-round. Built in 1955 by the owner's family (one of the original homes on Shady Lane), the one bedroom, one bathroom lower level holds its classic roots. As the family grew, so did the home, with an upper-level addition featuring a full kitchen, two bedrooms, a full bath, and laundry. Two-for-one never looked so good.
