About this home
Own a patented piece of Creede mining history. The Happy Thought claim covers 12.34 surveyed acres on Last Chance Mine Road, about a 12-minute drive from town by way of the Bachelor Loop (Forest Road 504) — and the mineral rights convey with the property. The barndominium-style cabin was built in 2018 and sits high on Bachelor at the edge of the aspens, with long views toward the La Garita Mountains. Two bedrooms, one full bath, and a sleeping loft for extra guests. Metal roof and siding over warm wood interiors, a wood stove for heat, and propane appliances. It sells fully furnished — beds, kitchen, furnishings, and the framed historical photography of the district all stay with the cabin. Completely off grid and set up to stay that way. The solar system was recently upgraded to lithium batteries for longer life and better efficiency, with a generator for backup and septic in place. Hundreds of trees were cleared for fire mitigation, which secured insurability at a reasonable rate — not a small thing in this country. ROCK HOUNDS WANTED. Because this is a patented claim, the minerals are tied to the deed and transfer to the new owner — increasingly rare in Colorado. The historic dump pile behind the cabin and two agate piles south of the house are yours to work: amethyst, quartz, and the banded Sowbelly Agate this district is known for, along with antique-era artifacts still turning up in the tailings. The sellers built out the fire pit in Sowbelly Agate from the mine tailings and set specimen pieces around the porch. Also included is a Mount Baker Mining sorting table with closed-loop water system, able to run up to a ton of fine material per hour and separate heavy minerals — roughly $21,000 new. The sellers' remaining rock collection on site conveys as well. Buyer to satisfy themselves as to mineral content; no assay has been performed. Across the road, a leveled bench makes a natural second building site with wide-open views. The property lies on both sides of the road and is gated at the drive. National Forest is close for hunting, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, and ATV riding, with the Bachelor Loop, the Equity Mine road, the San Luis Peak trailhead, and Rat Creek all within reach. No HOA. No covenants. County plows to the gate. Come see it before the snow flies....
