THE Business for Sale Marketplace

Lifestyle, Victorian style located in Western Slope, Colorado

Located in “Outdoor Adventure Paradise,” Fruita, Colorado, the Stonehaven Inn offers an unrivaled rustic charm to every weary mountain biker or triumphant, rough and tumble white water rafting enthusiast.

Built in 1908 by Mr. Harry Phillips, this two story grey stone beauty is listed on the National Historic Register. An elaborate enclosed wraparound porch provides guests the unique opportunity to enjoy the mild and pleasant Fruita climate but remain safe from the elements in case Mother Nature decides to shake things up a bit! While maintaining an old world appeal and all the original woodwork and hardwood floors, the property is also complete with every modern convenience including, all updated electric and laundry facility on the second floor. Featuring a uniquely decorated, two bedroom suite on the first floor and a large suite with private bath on the second, guests can enjoy a quiet privacy without feeling isolated from the friendly community this welcoming hospitality property encourages. A fantastic light filled dining area and airy kitchen provide a perfect space for visitors to socialize or take a peek at what the resident chef has in store to amuse the palate.

Sitting on 1.3 acres, this gorgeous home is surrounded by coniferous and deciduous trees of various ages and varieties. Nestled in the lush emerald grass of the back garden sits a romantic little gazebo, its narrow posts and delicate railings painted a flawless snowy white. The dappled shadows which filter lightly through the nooks and crannies of the whispering leafy branches freckle the surface of a fairytale perfect wishing well. Standing only steps away is an enormous gnarled tree stump, bursting with intricately twisting vines which cascade down the stunted trunk, heralding growth and the promise of new life in a comical yet poignant irony. A picture perfect red barn currently serves as a garage space and handyman’s workshop but could easily be converted into an artist’s studio or writer’s retreat.

The property is conveniently connected to the city sewer system, comes with 3 shares of ditch water rights and is zoned for weddings and other events. This makes the Stonehaven Inn perfect during the warmer months for matrimonial events and equally as convenient during the cooler times for business or religious retreats and winter sports junkies. To comfortably accommodate many visitors, the Stonehaven Inn offers ample parking for small cars as well as larger all terrain vehicles.

In addition to providing excellent guest accommodations there is a cozy owner’s quarters featuring one bedroom, bath, office/study room, kitchen, living area and laundry facility. Adjoining the owner’s quarters is a rentable unit which includes the same amenities. This promising piece of real estate has the potential for much growth in the hands of an enthusiastic and creatively energetic person.
