Property Description
Welcome to 254 N Main Street, a charming mountain cottage in the heart of Empire, where historic character, thoughtful updates, and an easygoing lifestyle come together. Originally constructed in 1900, this well-maintained home offers the rare opportunity to slow down, recharge, and enjoy Colorado mountain living while remaining close to everyday conveniences. The updated kitchen features appliances less than one year old, complemented by brand-new plumbing and a brand-new hot-water heater. The cellar has also been improved with new mortar. Inside, cozy up beside the new gas fireplace or enjoy the warmth and ambience of the original, fully functional wood-burning fireplace—with firewood included. The bedroom offers a closet, additional storage, and views toward Guanella and Union passes. Outside, the generous, usable yard provides beautiful mountain views and room to relax, entertain, or enjoy the fresh alpine air. Ample parking accommodates multiple vehicles, an RV, or a camper, while the oversized garage—formerly a carriage house—adds valuable storage and flexibility. Set in a quiet location yet convenient to town, this cottage is an ideal base for year-round adventure. Enjoy easy access to Winter Park and six major ski areas, along with nearby fishing, hiking, and countless opportunities to explore the mountains. Whether you are looking for a full-time home or a peaceful Colorado retreat, the greatest luxury here may simply be the chance to relax.
