About Property

Welcome to a retreat in nature where you are surrounded by mountain majesty: the House at Braeside. This historic home is a refined gem nestled into the hills surrounding Rocky Mountain National Park in Estes Park, Colorado, offering a serene escape for families and friends.

Built in 1920 by pianist and composer Arne Oldberg, the house is steeped in cultural history. Oldberg, a professor at Northwestern University, established the Rocky Mountain Music Festival on this land, and the residence later welcomed luminaries such as composer Sergei Rachmaninoff and contralto Marian Anderson. Today, guests can experience that same legacy while enjoying modern comforts. The living room, with its dark wood walls, envelops you in the history of the home, providing a peaceful space to rest after a day of exploration.

The home is designed for group comfort with 4 bedrooms, 4 beds, and 3 bathrooms, accommodating up to 10 guests. Sleeping arrangements include a king bed on the first floor, two bedrooms with queen beds on the second floor, and an additional bedroom with twin beds. Two additional guests can be accommodated in the living room area.

Key Features:

• Spacious deck with views of Longs Peak
• Inviting front porch
• Level 1 EV charging available via 110v outlet (bring your own charger; small fee applies)
• Proximity to YMCA facilities

Located for ultimate convenience, the property is just two minutes up the road from the entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park, allowing you to bypass the busy downtown Estes Park traffic. Whether you are visiting in the summer or spending winter days sledding, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing, the location is ideal for nature lovers.
