About This Home
Lifestyle abounds with this quintessential gem of Crested Butte heritage. 17 Elk Avenue is the real deal, two houses conveniently situated at the top of Elk Avenue in the heart of the last great Colorado ski town. The four-bedroom, 2.5 bath main house, built in 2004, masterfully incorporates the original log components and hand-hewn woodwork of Rozman's historic Crested Butte Saw Mill which was once located right next door. Great care and attention to detail brings rustic local character forward into the modern era. This delightful, solidly-built home is replete with open-concept kitchen and living room, office, spacious mud room entry, large finished basement, radiant in-floor heat, and attached one-car garage. The three-bedroom front house, originally the sawyer's family home, now functions as the long-term rental accessory dwelling. Fully renovated inside and out in 2001 including new poured concrete foundation, this sleek ADU features bamboo floors, stylish kitchen, radiant in-floor heat, bonus room plus loft, and loads of CB charm. Adding to the lore, this home is the birthplace of one of Colorado's favorite bands, the legendary String Cheese Incident. If only these walls could talk! Here is a tremendous opportunity to own a true Crested Butte classic, artfully brought up to the present in quality, style, energy efficiency, and mountain functionality. Detached shed out back is perfect for overflow gear. Ample off-street parking for both houses means you will park your car and leave it there. Walk to the best restaurants. Catch the free shuttle to the ski area. Revel in out-your-door access to epic single-track in summer and nordic trails in winter. All of it. This is genuine CB living at its finest.
