Own a piece of Weld County History! This historic gem was built by Claus "Claude" Wolfgang Von Trotha and his wife Helene and was known as "The Von Trotha Mansion." Although, hardly a mansion by today’s standards, it was considered the cream of the crop in the 1800's :) The home is eligible to be added to the National Register of Historic Places. This is a history buff and hunter's dream! It sits on 15.36 acres with 2 year-round fishing ponds and backs right up to the Poudre River. It is zoned AG so the property taxes are low (2013: $890) This also means that you are allowed to hunt on the property or even lease out the land during hunting season for extra income. We currently lease the land to farmers to run cattle during the spring and summer months then we hunt during the winter months. There are geese, ducks, foxes, coyotes, raccoons, deer, and all manner of wildlife! The back 13 acres (estimate) are full of trees and seasonal water and are entirely fenced by electric fence, ready for your cows, horses, etc. PRIVACY abounds! The home sits at the end of a 1000 foot private drive and is accessed by only 3 homes. All of us purchased our homes for the privacy and peaceful seclusion to be surrounded by nature, so at this time I am asking for no "drive-bys." We have preserved many of the beautiful Victorian era details, while adding many modern conveniences. Crown moulding in nearly every room, original hardwood floors, new paint job, new professional landscaping job and new roof!
