A rare historic mountain home just minutes from Vail. Tucked into the heart of historic Red Cliff, this one-of-a-kind Victorian offers authentic Colorado mountain living, rich history, outdoor space, and the opportunity to make it your own. Originally built in the early 1900s, the property later became a charming bed and breakfast. Today, it offers a unique combination of historic character and modern flexibility. Set on more than a quarter acre with Turkey Creek flowing through the property, the setting includes manicured lawns, multiple fire-pit areas, expansive parking, a separate storage yard, and beautiful alpine views. Inside, original Victorian details blend with thoughtful updates, including cherry hardwood floors, turn-of-the-century woodworking, vaulted ceilings, and spacious living areas. The main-level primary suite has an attached bath, while two upstairs bedrooms each feature ensuite bathrooms and vaulted ceilings. The lower level is especially versatile, featuring a newer kitchen and private exterior entrance with the potential to create a separate lock-off living space, ideal for guests, extended family, or potential long-term rental use, subject to applicable regulations. For buyers looking for income potential, this creates an exciting opportunity to explore a more private rental or guest configuration. There is also room to renovate, update, and expand, allowing the next owner to preserve the home's historic character while creating a layout and finishes that fit today's mountain lifestyle. Outdoor enthusiasts have direct access to Shrine Pass Road for hiking, biking, off-roading, and snowmobiling through thousands of acres of National Forest. Just minutes from Minturn, Vail, and Beaver Creek. Additional features include a 10kW rooftop solar array designed to offset most or all electricity usage, newer gas boiler, new sump pump, storage shed, and extensive parking.
