Property Description

Riverfront Mountain Home/Retreat on Nearly 19 Acres Perched dramatically along the rock cliffs above the river, this exceptional mountain retreat captures breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding mountains, private river frontage, and the beauty of Colorado's rugged landscape. Situated on just under 19 acres with ownership extending to the middle of the Uncompahgre River below, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and year-round recreation. Built in 1992 and lovingly maintained by the same family since 2000, the home has been thoughtfully improved over the years while preserving its warm mountain character. The residence features two stories plus a loft and decks on two levels, offering generous living space for family and guests. The lower level includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a spacious family room anchored by a stunning stone fireplace and a small deck, all with mountain views—an inviting gathering place after a day of outdoor adventure. A utility room with workshop space provides ample room for projects, hobbies, and storage. On the main level, a grand entry welcomes you beneath soaring cathedral trusses, log beams and tongue-and-groove pine ceilings and walls, creating an authentic lodge-style atmosphere. Expansive windows frame spectacular views and fill the home with natural light. The open-concept living room, dining area, kitchen, and the primary suite all enjoy the stunning mountain and river vistas. A floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace serves as the centerpiece of the living room, adding warmth and rustic elegance. The loft, a great office work area, overlooks the living room. A small private room with loft, near the front door, provides a unique use area. Multiple access points lead to the expansive wrap-around upper deck, where you can relax, entertain, and take in the incredible scenery, and overlook part of the property and river corridor below. Adjacent to the kitchen, you'll find a large laundry and utility room with direct access to the oversized two-car garage. The large, covered entry porch designed for quiet mornings, mid-day lunches and peaceful evenings also provides a side entrance into the laundry/kitchen area. The main-level primary suite offers a private retreat complete with a spacious walk-in closet and the primary suite bath featuring a soaking tub, separate shower, and ample space to unwind. Exterior features include beautifully milled log construction and a distinctive multi-peaked roof finished in rusted steel, perfectly complementing the mountain setting and protecting the home. For those seeking even more acreage and river frontage, an adjoining 17-acre parcel with additional river access is available under a separate listing. An old, well-traveled dirt road runs through the lengths of the two parcels for 1/2 mile from the house driveway to the river, providing good access to much of the two properties. The two properties may be purchased together to create an extraordinary legacy estate. Conveniently located approximately 15 minutes from the charming mountain communities of Ridgway and Ouray, this remarkable property offers the perfect blend of seclusion, comfort, and accessibility. This is a rare opportunity to own a true Colorado mountain sanctuary along the Uncompahgre River.
