About This Home
This is a once-in-a-century opportunity to own a significant piece of Wyoming history. Held by the same family for over 100 years, this cabin overlooks the historic timber and mining town of Keystone and showcases the exceptional craftsmanship of the region's pioneer Swedish and Finnish miners. The structure features authentic European timber techniques, including full dovetail construction with log joints so precise they require no chinking. While the cabin requires some restoration to return to its former glory, its original character remains breathtaking. The interior layout is very functional including an open living Space, two "bedroom" areas divided by a partition wall that opens directly into the main living area. Two small lofts that could be more sleeping areas. A small galley kitchen equipped with a traditional wood cook stove, propane stove and an eat-in dining area. This is a dry, rustic cabin offering a true off-grid experience, just as it has been since the mining days. While there are currently no utilities connected, power has been rolled up to the cabin from a nearby poll. The property provides a serene setting where you can relax on the front porch surrounded by aspen and pine trees while listening to the nearby Douglas Creek rolling by. The property is located approximately 8.6 miles from Albany, 12 miles from Fox Park, and 3 miles from Rob Roy Reservoir. Road 542 is closed Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, though it remains open on weekends and holidays. Alternative access is available around the lake or from hwy 230 through Fox Park. Once in Keystone, Turn right just before the bridge. Being sold AS IS Listed and marketed by Eric Brown Gem City Real Estate 307-399-2362
