Welcome to Hidden Lake, a private mountain community just north of Ward where residents enjoy fishing, boating, and swimming on their own shared alpine lake. A rare property, one of only ten homes with direct lake frontage, offering a setting that feels both intimate and extraordinary.

The home itself carries all the charm of a mountain retreat with striking rooflines, soaring windows that frame endless views, and a wraparound deck designed for outdoor living. From this elevated vantage you can take in the expanse of lake and mountains, while a more secluded sitting area among the pines offers a quiet spot for Adirondack chairs and evenings around the fire. Inside, the main level living space is warm and inviting, anchored by a stone fireplace and wood beam accents. A wall of glass opens to the lake and surrounding forest, bringing the outdoors in and filling the room with natural light. The kitchen and dining area flow easily for meals together or hosting friends, while the lower level guest room provides privacy and comfort. The lofted primary bedroom overlooks the living space below and captures sweeping vistas that stretch across the mountains, giving you a sunrise-to-sunset experience each day.

For nearly two decades, this home has been a shared retreat for families who treasured its serenity and convenience, and it is now ready to welcome its next chapter. Recent updates include a full exterior repaint, while practical features like a whole-home water filter, well & septic, and electric baseboard heat ensure comfort. The grounds are thoughtfully mitigated and hold the respected Wildfire Partners Certification.

Whether launching a kayak, watching wildlife from the porch, or setting off for adventures in the nearby Indian Peaks Wilderness and Brainard Lake Recreation Area, this is a true basecamp for mountain living. Boulder is just 30 minutes away, with DIA under ninety minutes, keeping the world within reach while you enjoy the peace of your own lakeside escape.
