About this home
Tucked away on almost 5 acres in the peaceful Colorado landscape, this one-of-a-kind handcrafted cabin is more than a cabin — it’s a living piece of American history. Thoughtfully curated with reclaimed materials rich in heritage and character, every corner tells a story spanning several regions of the country.
Step inside to an open floor plan accented by massive oak logs dating back to the 1820s, originally sourced from Ohio. An unfinished loft provides additional storage, sleeping area or whatever your imagination dreams up. The craftsmanship throughout blends rustic charm with meaningful history, including bedroom beams reclaimed from an old sod cabin in La Veta and maple flooring and vintage tin salvaged from the Colorado History Museum in Denver. The bedroom window carries its own Colorado legacy, rescued from a historic Cripple Creek jailhouse.
Adding to the cabin’s extraordinary provenance, parts of the ceiling and kitchen panels were repurposed from a 1934 grain truck built by prisoners in Canon City. The back addition features logs from the original Taylor Ranch off Tallahassee Road, while smaller details continue the storytelling — including a potholder crafted from a horse-drawn hay sleigh, a clawfoot tub from a historic establishment in Alma, and a vintage corner sink from an old sporting goods store in Canon City.
Beyond the cabin itself, the property is set up for self-sufficient country living with modern comforts already in place. Features include solar panels with nearby access to grid power if desired, a 1,700-gallon cistern, Anderson windows, a greenhouse, chicken coop, storage shed, and partial fencing.
This is a rare opportunity to own a handcrafted Colorado retreat where history, craftsmanship, and rustic living come together in truly unforgettable fashion....
