Coming from Germany, and leaving behind a castle with moat and draw bridge, Hans Von Hagen became a very prominent rancher in the Ridgway area. He built this beautiful house, which included steam heat in 1906 for his wife Lucy. It cost him $4,000.... She operated it as a boarding house for single female school teachers. It was subdivided into apartments in the Great Depression in 1927. We purchased the grand old property from the Krebs family who had owned it for over 100 years. We are completing a full renovation and have remodeled the property for the first time since 1927. Rooms have high ceilings and large windows. The bedrooms have spacious closets and all the floors are beautifully restored straight grain hardwood. Bedrooms have blackout curtains for the travel professionals on night shift...Located in downtown Montrose one block from the Regional Hospital, this property is in walking distance to local restaurants, breweries and stores. You literally will rarely need to use your car unless it is to explore the nearby towns of Ouray, Ridgway, or Telluride. Winter and summer sports include skiing/snowboarding, hiking and mountain biking. Read More
