Imagine owning the historic Rob Roy lode and millsite claim, with a patented grant signed into record by Theodore Roosevelt in 1904. These secluded yet accessible historical patented copper & silver mining claim and mill-site parcels are surrounded by the San Isabel National Forest. The millsite parcel borders Chalk Creek! Decreed water rights for 1 CFS of water from ANOTHER creek that runs right through this property, creating a lush and green mountain oasis, and an abundance of wildflowers in the summer. There is a sturdy dry cabin built with beautiful historical bricks, and it has a solid metal roof. This cozy cabin with a vaulted ceiling offers two beautiful wood stoves and has designated areas for bathing, dining, sleeping, and cooking. You can hear and see Chalk Creek through the windows. This project was well-planned with a stone patio, stone walkways, multiple stone terraces, and retaining walls surrounding this charming abode. An adjacent structure houses a one-car garage, 2 firewood storage areas, a utility shed, and a separate storage area. The millsite parcel offers 4 pristine acres of treed creekside paradise with a private pathway that leads directly into the National Forest along Chalk Creek. The mining parcel is on the other side of the road, very close to the millsite parcel, but not quite touching it. You can easily walk from one to the other. The separate creek has a great flow and starts near a beautiful waterfall northwest of these properties. This creek can still flow through September. All showings must be by appointment only and shown with a licensed real estate agent. There is surveillance at these properties. No trespassing, please.
