Positioned on 0.3 acres on the west side of the peaceful ghost town of Turret, a historic mining town a half hour outside of Salida (offering shops, restaurants, and medical facilities). Turret sits at the back door to Browns Canyon National Monument, giving you endless opportunities to explore thousands of acres of public lands. After exploring, enjoy quiet time sitting on your front deck taking in the views. You will immediately love the warmth of the white oak floors, vaulted ceiling, and wood burning stove. There's room for seating around the fire, as well as a dining area. The kitchen's custom Douglas fir cabinetry was completed in 2025 along with white oak butcherblock countertops. A large stainless steel farmhouse sink, slate tile floor, refrigerator, and a restored antique stove (don't worry it's no longer wood-fired, but rather connected to propane) round out the kitchen. The bedroom receives wonderful morning and southern light. New bathroom finishes keep things fresh. Be spoiled by modern amenities including an on-demand tankless water heater, private well, and solar for power generation. Cell service off wi-fi is available (yes there is internet!). Here you will own a part of Colorado history. In front of the main cabin sits the 1884 cabin. "... one of the two original cabins built during 1884 in what was then Camp Austin." This guest cabin was one of two cabins that "formed the nucleus for what was to become the little mining camp of Turret" (from the book Trails of the Columbine). Restored with it's small wood stove, it is the perfect place for friends and family to stay. A utility shed houses solar equipment, tools, and toys.
