Own a unique piece of Montezuma County history with this affordable 3-bedroom, 1-bath home in Cortez, Colorado, offering approximately 1,200 square feet of living space and endless potential. Originally relocated from the historic town of McPhee before the community was submerged during the creation of McPhee Reservoir, this home offers a rare opportunity to preserve a piece of local heritage while creating a space that's uniquely your own. Recently refreshed with fresh interior paint and a professional cleaning, the home is move-in ready while still offering outstanding potential for updates and personalization. The functional floor plan features a cozy kitchen that flows into the laundry room and an additional bedroom, while a hallway on the opposite side of the home leads to two more bedrooms and a full bathroom. An added bonus room provides flexible space for a home office, hobby room, or additional living area and includes a new electrical panel. Outside, the fully chain-link fenced yard offers plenty of room for pets, gardening, entertaining, or outdoor projects. The home's attractive wood siding is complemented by distinctive rock wall accents, adding character and curb appeal. An electric vehicle charging outlet is already installed and could also be used for RV hookups, providing added convenience for today's homeowners. Located near Broadway (Highway 491), this home provides excellent visibility and quick access to shopping, restaurants, schools, medical facilities, parks, and everyday conveniences throughout Cortez. Enjoy being just minutes from Mesa Verde National Park, Phil's World Mountain Bike Trail, McPhee Reservoir, the Dolores River, and countless opportunities for hiking, fishing, boating, camping, mountain biking, and exploring the incredible outdoor recreation that makes Southwest Colorado such a desirable place to call home. Whether you're a first-time home buyer looking for an affordable place to start building equity, an investor searching for your next rental or income-producing property, or someone looking for a rewarding fix-and-flip opportunity, this property offers exceptional potential. Combining a fascinating story, recent cosmetic improvements, a flexible floor plan, and a convenient Cortez, Colorado location, this is a rare chance to own an affordable home while preserving a truly special piece of Montezuma County history.
