Tucked just behind the bustling Main Street of historic Virginia City, this beautifully preserved Victorian home offers a front-row seat to small-town charm with sweeping 100-mile views of the high desert. Lovingly maintained with attention to true period details — from intricate trim work to high ceilings and hardwood floors — every corner of this home tells a story. Originally built in the 1860s and believed to have ties to Comstock legends, this one-of-a-kind property sits right on "Millionaire's Row" and is zoned mixed-use, offering the flexibility to live, work, or host guests in a location steeped in Nevada history. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath gem blends rich history with thoughtful updates, creating a space that's as functional as it is full of character. From the moment you step inside, you'll notice the attention to detail — intricate Victorian trim, high ceilings, rich hardwood floors nod to the home's 1860s roots. The formal living room and formal dining room offer distinct gathering spaces, perfect for entertaining or simply soaking in the elegance of a bygone era. The galley-style kitchen has been tastefully updated to offer modern-day convenience without sacrificing charm. The primary bedroom is located on the main level. Upstairs you'll find two additional bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and lovely architectural angles. One of the upstairs bedrooms opens directly onto a covered deck facing the terraced backyard — ideal for unwinding in your own quiet corner of town. Out front, a spacious elevated deck offers sweeping views of downtown Virginia City and the expansive valley beyond. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee as the town comes to life or watching the sunset paint the hills, it's a view that never gets old. Stroll down the wooden sidewalks to grab lunch and catch a ghost tour, you'll feel like you're part of something truly special.
