Listing details for 34028 Lyttle Dowdle Dr, Golden, CO 80403 : Some properties are simply houses. Dar-Laine is a legacy — a beloved mountain retreat named and cherished for decades. Perched on a true mountain acre, natural rock outcroppings punctuate the landscape, and with pure mountain spirit — find a custom mini golf course that winds through the grounds. It's quirky. It's wonderful. It's exactly the kind of thing you do when a piece of land makes you fall in love with it. The massive composite deck is excellent for taking in the views. Snow-capped peaks. Rolling foothills. An unobstructed mountain skyline that stretches as far as the eye can travel. And when even the deck isn't enough, climb the staircase to the rooftop viewing zone — because at Dar-Laine, the sky is very much part of the home. The cabin is a blank canvas with great bones, ready for the right hands. The kitchen is original and charming in its simplicity — stove, refrigerator, and real potential. The bathroom has a toilet, sink, and an existing tub (tub is not plumbed with water but this finishing touch is well within reach). This is not a turnkey home. It's a rugged mountain project for someone who wants to put their own mark on something special. The great room features a stacked stone fireplace crafted from rocks hand-collected off this very property. The infrastructure is solid — newer septic, a traditional well, electric service, and propane heat. The land, the lot, the bones — they're all here. Dar-Laine sits in a mountain community loaded with outdoor adventure and genuine local character. Coal Creek Coffee is just down the street. And access to so many trails through the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Neighbors affectionately refer to her as "The Key House" and she is ready for the Next Generation of Rugged Mountain Folks. If you're the type to grab a hammer, plan a weekend project, and watch the sunset from a rooftop while the fire crackles below, this place has been waiting for you. Visitors, please bring a key for the collection.
