Property Description
Discover the timeless allure of Colorado's rich mining history at this historic site, with a Cabin, built in 1999, and Mill, built in 1912, on 30.99 acres above Silverton, situated just beyond the famed ghost town of Animas Forks on the Alpine Loop. This property is eligible for grants and tax incentives related to historic properties, mining reclamation, and economic development. The 1912 Mill is listed on the National Historic Register, making this property a rare opportunity to own a piece of American Heritage. This 30.99 acre parcel offers a livable cabin and a prototype historic mill, representing a significant era in mining history. Nestled amidst breathtaking alpine scenery, this site has panoramic views of rugged mountains and pristine wilderness - and it is right on the Alpine Loop! The cabin comes equipped with plumbing to a sink that is fed by a spring, and a stove, refrigerator and LED lights run by solar. The cabin is heated with a propane catalytic heater and kerosene space heater.
