A setting of absolute tranquility envelops this residence on one of the quietest avenues in all historic Telluride. Mature Aspen, 70+ foot Blue Spruce and lushgardens frame this historic (circa 1909) traditional craftsman-like dwelling, further accentuated by the babbling sound of Cornet Creek adjoining 50 feet of thisextraordinary three-lot assemblage. Its architecture, with double cross gable with half timbering on troweled concrete and multi-paned windows, trends awayfrom earlier Victorian styles and details, and could be described as a Tudor Revival.Its timeless interiors exude traditional craftsmanship and quiet luxury filled with soulful details like handcrafted custom millwork, marble countertops, andantique doors and fixtures. Thoughtfully layered with collected pieces, the home feels both curated and lived-in. Sunlight streams into every corner, especially
the open kitchen, dining, and breakfast area that flow seamlessly into the spacious living room. The ambiance of this property invites you to relax and unwind,
whether inside or out on the expansive decks surrounded by the breathtaking landscape.
While only blocks from the vibrant Historic Core of Telluride, 451 West Galena's ambiance is that of privately residing in a rural mountain environment. Located
directly on the creek is an Historically designated shed that is ready for a permit to build a fifth suite in addition to three bedrooms in the main dwelling and a
full-service guest apartment above a heated two-car garage.
