Property Description
Welcome to the iconic Hungry Moose Caboose in scenic Jefferson—a truly rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind lifestyle property rich in history, character, and multiple income streams. This is a turn key business opportunity.
Originally built in the early 1880s as a depot on the Colorado Southern Railroad line—later part of the Denver, South Park & Pacific Railroad—this remarkable property is a designated historic site and a well-known landmark for locals and travelers alike.
Step inside and experience a living piece of Colorado history. Original wood floors in the kitchen, living room, and main bedroom showcase saw blade marks, hand-forged square nails, and even rail grease stains from its time as a working freight room. The natural wear patterns between rooms reflect its past life as a bustling ticket office and passenger waiting area.
Beyond its historic charm, the property offers exceptional income potential. The established food business draws steady traffic with its popular locally sourced beef hamburgers, while an additional commercial space—previously a successful café-style coffee and ice cream concept—offers room for expansion or new ideas. With prime highway frontage and summer traffic counts approaching 10,000 cars per day, exposure is outstanding.
Additional opportunities include a proven VRBO rental, another commercial space ready for lease, and a vintage caboose with exciting potential for a one-of-a-kind guest experience.
