Mountain-town living in Cripple Creek
Cripple Creek and Victor, hidden away amongst the vast Rocky Mountains, embody a unique blend of Colorado’s mining history and contemporary mountain living. These neighboring towns, steeped in the history of the 1800s gold rush era, are home to the United States’ last operating gold mine, owned by Newmont Mining Corporation, that employs residents today. “Cripple Creek and Victor go hand and hand. The area is known for its casinos, currently day mining, breathtaking views and small mountain town lifestyle,” says Jason Roshek, a licensed real estate salesperson with Coldwell Banker Beyond, who has been in the real estate industry for over 20 years. Over time, these historic towns have reinvented themselves, revitalizing the economy through lively energy and economic benefits by introducing a range of casinos.

Historic Victorians and log cabins
In town, a range of historic, colorful Victorians and bungalows dot the street, reminiscent of the former glory days, while a mix of contemporary homes and large modern log cabins are scattered throughout the mountainous rolling hills. “Everyone wants a log cabin in the mountains, so you’ll see more wooden-style homes, but there are still a lot of ranch-style and custom-built homes around here,” Roshek says. The median price for a single-family home hovers around the mid $300,000s with an average lot size just over 1 acre. However, prices can range from the mid $100,000s to the mid $300,000s for a modest bungalow in the heart of town. At the same time, a log cabin with ample privacy can start in the low $400,000s and reach the upper $800,000s for a house on 30 acres, with some residences topping over $1 million for 50+ acres.
