Property Description
Mountain Retreat in Historic St. Elmo on 1.5 Acres
Welcome to 19147 County Road 294, a rare opportunity to own a piece of Colorado history in the heart of the beloved ghost town of St. Elmo. This charming mountain cabin sits on two lots totaling 1.5 acres, offering a serene and spacious retreat surrounded by towering pines, rugged peaks, and the steady rush of Chalk Creek flowing just steps from your front door.
The property includes an attached two-car garage—an uncommon feature in the area—providing both convenience and ample storage for all your mountain gear. Whether you're into off-roading, hiking, fly fishing, snowmobiling, or simply soaking in the alpine air, this is the perfect year-round basecamp for Colorado adventure.
Inside, the cabin blends rustic charm with comfortable living, making it ideal for weekend escapes, full-time residence, or vacation rental potential.
St. Elmo is one of Colorado's best-preserved ghost towns, rich in mining history and tucked high in the Sawatch Range at nearly 10,000 feet elevation. The area draws nature lovers, history enthusiasts, and thrill seekers alike—with easy access to trails, lakes, Mount Princeton Hot Springs, and the scenic Alpine Loop.
Rarely does a property with this much land, sounds of chalk creek, and authentic Colorado character come available in St. Elmo. Don't miss your chance to own a true slice of Rocky Mountain heritage.
