The Samuel I. Hallett House, located on West Francis Avenue in Aspen, Colorado, is a timber frame structure originating from the Colorado Silver Boom era. Built originally as a log cabin by an early miner, the house was expanded by Samuel I. Hallett, an officer of the Smuggler Mine, one of Aspen's largest and most profitable mining operations. The Victorian-style residence, completed in its current form in 1888, retains evidence of its frontier origins—mid-twentieth-century renovations revealed the remains of the original log cabin within. Now a private residence that has passed through multiple owners, the house was recognized as a Denver Historical Landmark and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987, preserving its significance as a witness to Aspen's mining heritage.
