Step back in time with this historic property, featuring an original adobe home built in 1869 that may have once served as a stagecoach stop in 1857 and a dance hall in the late 1800s. Recently remodeled in 1984, this home beautifully merges historic charm with modern luxury. Many original features, such as hardwood floors, clawfoot tubs, original cabinets, hand-carved wooden doors, adobe walls, and ceilings, have been preserved and restored. The property also includes a separate yet connected unfinished room where Catholic Padres stayed in the late 1800s. Modern upgrades abound, including high-end appliances, high-speed fiber optic internet, cellular service, additional heating systems, new hardware on restored tubs, large double-paned windows, granite countertops, a wine cooler, smoke/CO alarms, additional insulation, and high-end Jodel wood stoves/inserts. In addition to the main home, there is a second charming cabin currently used as a VRBO and a third living space, a converted potato cellar, complete with a kitchen, sleeping area, bathroom, and a wood stove for supplemental heat. The property also boasts numerous outbuildings, including a large woodshop that could be finished for additional living space, two train cars for storage, an old wooden train car suitable for a studio or more storage, an old chicken coop, and an old horse barn. Nestled along Pinos Creek and bordered by two large ranches, the property offers expansive and private mountain and valley views. Despite its seclusion, it is just five minutes from a state-of-the-art hospital and town amenities such as shopping, groceries, and banking. The Wolf Creek Ski Area, known for the most snow in Colorado, is about 30 miles to the west, and the Rio Grande River, with its Gold Medal trout fishing waters, is a short drive away. Embrace a lifestyle rich in history and adventure, with opportunities for hunting, hiking, four-wheeling, fishing, and skiing right at your doorstep.
