429 W Carr Ave Cripple Creek, CO 80813

This historic home, built by Alexander Corder who was killed in a hunting accident on July 25, 1899, and laid to rest in Mt. Pisgah Cemetery, is a treat to experience. Although updated in most all respects, the period charm of the home is intact. Entering the kitchen from the mud room on the rear of the home, you are instantly impressed with the high ceilings, tall windows, modern stainless appliances and engineered-wood floors. The home's extra-large full bath (plumbing for a stackable washer/dryer available), pantry and two of the three generous bedrooms are accessed from the hallway leading to the exquisite dining room with stunning chandelier, wood-burning stove, and built-in buffet space characteristic of the times. Continuing through the double-wide doorway is the expansive living room with a turret space to sit and enjoy the views of town and the Sangre De Cristos! Glass-paned French doors off the living room lead to the large master bedroom with a second turret and more of the views of the valley and mountains. The property can be mixed use with commercial and residential with the City of Cripple Creek zoning/approval. Everything is within walking distance: restaurants, casinos, fair grounds, stores, schools, you name it! The front of the home offers a peaceful covered porch where you can enjoy coffee while looking out over the entire Cripple Creek valley and the sourthern mountains. The front of the property is fenced with split rail fencing, and the rear space fenced for your pets and a substantial shed for storing everything! Do yourself a favor and see this unique and historic home in Cripple Creek today...you may luck out and the town's free-range donkeys may pay you a visit!
