National and State Register
Green Mountain Ranch
Jefferson County
The land was originally registered as a mining claim. It later was homesteaded and cattle ranched by Edwin Eugene Culver. The surviving one-story ranch house, with a medium pitch gabled roof, rests on a fieldstone foundation.
The exterior walls were constructed with hand hewn square logs and half-dovetailed joints. The original circa 1900 portion measured approximately 30 by 40 feet. An expansion several years later, added a first floor living room and increased the space for bedrooms in the attic.
