Property Description
Views, location, walk-ability, modern systems, unbelievably low property taxes, and city grants for exterior paint make the "Marchant" house a must see! Built around 1864, this historic home and the street it sits on are named after William "Billy" Marchant, an entrepreneur and owner of the Continental Billiard Hall. The 3-bed, 2.5 bath Marchant house is enviable for its elevated location overlooking Black Hawk, Chase Gulch, and Maryland Mtn. It's equally enviable for being mere steps from everything the area has to offer without the car and foot traffic! To preserve the homes in the Black Hawk Historic District, the City embarked on an extensive interior remodel of 151 Marchant in 2007, bringing the interior up to modern standards while preserving the original hardwood floors and its exterior character. The main floor now features an eat-in kitchen with stainless appliances, a powder bath, laundry area, and a large primary suite with en-suite bath. The upstairs has two quiet guest bedrooms and a full bath. Sellers added a new furnace in 2023, and it has a Gutter Helmet system. This home enjoys driveway parking as well as exclusive-use parking spaces in front of the home. Property taxes are an unbelievably low $362 in 2023. City grants pay for exterior home painting. There is free garbage pickup, and starting 1/1/2025, owners will pay a LOW $44 mo for water. The current owners use the home as a vacation retreat for themselves, family and friends. They will tell you that Black Hawk & Central City are more than just a place to live or visit - it's a lifestyle! So, whether you choose to be full or part-time, you'll enjoy rich history, exciting casinos and entertainment, first-class dining, parks, trails and more. And, with easy access to I-70, everything Colorado has to offer is at your doorstep. Denver is 35 mins. DIA is just over an hour. World-class skiing is nearby. Plus there's hiking, biking, rafting, zip-lines, and trails for horses, ATVs, 4WDs, and much more!
