This beautifully unique property, located between Antonito and Fox Creek, offers a rich history and modern updates. Once home to the original trading post and community well, it later became the residence and studio of renowned and award-winning plein air artist Rick Howell (rickhowell.com). The current owners have thoughtfully remodeled the historic adobe home, preserving its character while adding modern conveniences. Updates include new electrical, plumbing, and septic systems, as well as a newly drilled 365-foot well (2019). The home is heated with one woodstove, two gas stoves, and electric baseboards, while the thick adobe walls help maintain warmth in the winter and a cool interior in the summer. Outdoor living is equally inviting with a charming patio and kiva fireplace, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The property also features an impressive garden area, where the current owners have grown potatoes, tomatoes, green chile, onions, cabbage, and more. A rare find blending history, artistry, and modern comfort—this one-of-a-kind home must be seen to be truly appreciated. County has the parcel as .40 acre but REColorado has it as 1 acre
