Key Facts
Description
They don't build them like they used to! 721 Maroon Ave, known as the Superintendents House, epitomizes Crested Buttes Victorian heritage. Originally located on Big Mine Hill, the home served as the residence for the superintendent of Colorado Fuel & Iron Company's mining and coke oven operations in the Crested Butte area from 1883 until 1952. Moved to its present location in 1971, its design is representative of Colorado Fuel & Iron superintendent housing in company towns throughout the state of Colorado. Built by the company, they were the most substantial and architecturally sophisticated residences in the community. Today, the four bed, four bath property artfully combines historic distinction and modern refinement. The home has seen renovations over the years but still retains the original and beautifully reclaimed wood flooring and features gorgeous appointments including the wood staircase, crown molding, wainscoting, interior doors and gas fireplace. The spacious, 1st level of the property features a comfortable open floor plan, something that is hard to find in Crested Butte. The open kitchen enjoys a breakfast nook, a six-burner Viking range and hood, Miele dishwasher, a stainless steel refrigerator, attractive cabinetry and granite counters. Upstairs, the stunning vaulted ceilings feature sky lights in each room and reclaimed wood beams in the master suite. The plumbing, electrical, low voltage monitoring and heating systems have all been updated to a modern spec. Natural light pours into the living spaces on both levels of the home yet the huge, mature Spruce trees and southern orientation on the parcel creates a sense of privacy and seclusion. The covered wrap-around front porch and the detached garage complete this historic gem. The quieter, east side of town location near Rainbow Park, the Slate River and the Rec Path to Mt. Crested Butte make this a special offering.
