Blue River Run real estate is located just a few miles to the north in Silverthorne, Colorado. Take the first exit on I-70 westbound from Denver after exiting the Eisenhower Tunnel, which passes under the Continental Divide. It’s before you reach resort Breckenridge real estate high in the Colorado Rocky Mountains.
The Blue River Run subdivision is home to some impressive new townhouses, condos, and single-family homes near the sparkling Blue River—just a free Summit Stage shuttle ride from several world-class ski resorts: Keystone real estate, Breckenridge real estate, Arapahoe Basin and Copper Mountain. A big plus about the area is that Silverthorne investment properties may be less expensive than those at the big ski resorts. Sometimes they even have more amenities. For example, these Silverthorne CO homes in Blue River Run feature large outdoor decks, private patios with hot tubs, and panoramic views of the Gore Range and Eagles Nest Wilderness right along the Blue River, Willow Creek, or Legend Lake.
The Silverthorne condos range from two bedrooms to three bedrooms plus a loft featuring spacious living and cozy fireplaces—perfectly positioned for an active lifestyle. A dream come true for hikers, bikers, and X-country skiers, the Blue River Run subdivision is close to Gold Hill, Masontown, Mount Royal, Peaks Trail (the Breckenridge-to-Frisco cross-country and showshoe freeway), Rainbow Lake cross-country skiing and snowshoeing, and Ski Town Triad road biking.
Other times, residents and visitors launch canoes or paddle boats, stroll along the River, or peddle around the surrounding neighborhoods of Angler Mountain Ranch, Homestead at Tree Peaks, Eagles Nest, Three Peaks, and Osprey.
The town was incorporated in the 1960s and has grown up with the local tourist industry. At an elevation of 8,790 feet, the population of 3,600 calls itself the “Gateway to Summit County skiing.” Once the snow does melt, anglers cast their flies along the banks of the Blue River. A 62,000-sq.-ft. recreation center offers swimming and hot tubs. A skate park, Nordic center, ice rink, golf course, whitewater park, the Dillon Ranger District of the White River National Forest, Jeep and ATV tours, hot-air balloon rides, lift rides, snowmobile rides and scenic sleigh rides and many more inviting activities are sure to rekindle a healthy love of life.
Children and youth attend the Summit County Schools and Colorado Mountain College located in the area. The elementary schools are here in town. Shoppers come from all over to the Outlets stores in town.
Not so fifty years ago, but residents can now easily go anywhere in the world from these mountains. The Denver International Airport (DIA) is a 2-hour drive, Colorado Springs is 3 hours and Eagle County Airport is only 1½ hours. The central location and easy access to Interstate 70, ski and wilderness areas, make this a popular destination.
