Single Family Residence in Florence, CO

Perched high on a bluff overlooking the historic city of Florence, this commanding two-story mansion stands as a rare remnant of the area's oil-boom prosperity. Once a symbol of wealth and ambition, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers investors and preservation-minded buyers the opportunity to restore a true piece of Colorado history to its original grandeur. Imagine enjoying the sunset on the huge wraparound deck on the west side, with views of the Florence city lights. Set on more than half an acre on a quiet, low-traffic street, the property enjoys a park-like setting adjacent to Quartz Park, along with sweeping views of the surrounding community. A detached carriage-house garage and owned solar add both charm and long-term value. Inside, the home is rich with irreplaceable character: exposed brick accents line the stairwell, antique door knobs and original trim tell stories of another era, and a striking bay window with built-in bench seating anchors the living space. A wood stove remains in the living room and another is near the side entry near the kitchen, a sprawling pantry with abundant storage, and a large enclosed recreation room, complete with a hot tub, highlight the home's generous scale and versatility. The flexible floor plan allows for reimagining spaces to suit modern uses, including the potential to convert existing rooms into additional bedrooms or grand entertaining areas. This is not just a house, it is a legacy property with significant upside for the right investor ready to revive a landmark and reclaim its place among Florence's most storied homes.
