Property Description
Listed on the Colorado State Register of Historic Properties, the 1883 CF&I Superintendents House is one of Crested Buttes most historically significant private residences. Originally located on Big Mine Hill, it served as the residence of the superintendent overseeing Colorado Fuel & Irons Crested Butte mining and coke operations from 1883 to 1952. Relocated to its present setting in 1971, the home remains an exceptional example of the substantial and architecturally refined residences CF&I constructed for its superintendents throughout Colorado. Today, this four-bedroom, three-and-one-half-bath home offers 2,274 square feet of thoughtfully updated living space, beautifully balancing authentic Victorian character with modern comfort and functionality. Original and reclaimed wood flooring, a handsome staircase, crown molding, wainscoting and period-inspired interior doors preserve the homes distinctive heritage, while thoroughly modernized plumbing, electrical, heating and low-voltage monitoring systems provide contemporary performance and reliability. The spacious main level features an inviting open floor plana rare quality among Crested Buttes historic homes. The well-appointed kitchen includes a charming breakfast nook, six-burner Viking range and hood, a stainless steel refrigerator, granite countertops and generous cabinetry. A gas fireplace anchors the comfortable living area. Upstairs, vaulted ceilings, skylights and reclaimed timber beams create warm, light-filled accommodations, including a beautifully detailed primary suite. Mature spruce trees and the propertys southern orientation provide privacy, abundant natural light and a wonderfully secluded atmosphere. A covered wraparound porch and detached garage complete the offering. Located on the quieter east side of town near Rainbow Park, the Slate River, the recreation path and the shops and restaurants of Elk Avenue, the Superintendents House offers a rare combination of historic provenance, thoroughly modernized systems and the walkable Crested Butte lifestyle.
