Property details
About 248 S 5th Ave
Step into a piece of Brighton’s history with this one-of-a-kind home that seamlessly blends old-world charm with modern updates. Originally built in 1901, this home was once the “Hughes Station” Stagecoach stop, offering weary travelers a place to rest. In 1947, the original structure was relocated to its current lot, and thoughtfully expanded to create the unique home it is today. While public records list this as a 3-bedroom, 1-bath home, one of the secondary bedrooms has been transformed into a stunning en-suite, making the entire second floor a private master retreat. The spacious master bath exudes vintage elegance, complete with a classic clawfoot tub that adds to the home’s historic character. Throughout the home, you’ll find a perfect balance of original details and tasteful updates in all the right places. The kitchen comes fully equipped with all appliances and ample room for laundry and pantry. If you need extra space for hobbies, business, or storage, you’ll love the heated 4-car detached garage, plus a covered carport ideal for a boat, small camper, or trailer. An incredible backyard for your pets, kids, family and friends! The backyard is a true retreat with a hot tub, sauna, and a fully fenced yard featuring an in-ground sprinkler system for easy maintenance. A charming garden shed offers additional storage or could be transformed into an office or hobby area. With brand-new carpet, a new roof, and a history of meticulous maintenance, this home is truly special. Don’t miss your chance to own a slice of Brighton’s past—while enjoying all the modern conveniences of today!
