Tucked away in the historic Shady Greenhorn area, 10511 Apache City Road in Rye, Colorado, is a one-of-a-kind mountain retreat with tons of character. This 3-bedroom, 3-bath home is full of natural light and features gorgeous Philippine mahogany wood floors that add a warm, rustic feel throughout. The property includes two historic buildings: the old Greenhorn Caf-which also served as a bus depot, general store and service station back in the day-and a hand-dug well known as the "Old Oaken Bucket," used by early travelers along the Taos Mountain Trail way back in the 1800s. You're literally stepping into a piece of Colorado's past. You'll also find a few other outbuildings, including a detached garage with bonus rooms for storage, projects, or whatever else you might need. Water won't be an issue either-with a permitted well (tested at 22 GPM, permitted for 10 GPM), a 3,000-gallon holding tank, and a 4,500-gallon cistern as backup. Plus, Little Graneros Creek runs through the property, adding a peaceful, scenic touch. Whether you're looking for a full-time home, a weekend getaway, or a unique slice of history to call your own, this place has a little bit of everything-quiet country living, mountain views, and a story to tell.
