MOUNTAIN RIVER HOUSE... This is a rare opportunity to own one of the most coveted properties in all of Ouray County!! With approximately 300 feet of private river LIVE water frontage, this home sits on the banks of the Uncompahgre River. You can fish for brown and rainbow trout and in the fall, snag Kokanee salmon. Water fowl are abundant. There are two streams with fresh watercress running from the house to the river. There is a 20 foot hand painted teepee on the river. The property is actually 1.66 acres for usage due to the private Bureau of Reclamation easement bordering the property. Assessor acreage is .68, but with the additional property for the private easement, 1.66 acres is within their fenced property boundaries. Property borders Ridgway State Park and BLM land. In just a few steps you can walk into the Park or take the scenic bike/walking trail to the charming town of Ridgway. From the moment you enter this 2023 square foot home, you see and feel the vibrancy of the Uncompahgre River and the majesty of the snow covered Sneffles Range, including Mt. Sneffels (14,150'), Teakettle (13,819') and Mt. Abrams (12,801'). The river can be seen and heard from both the upper and lower decks, living room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom and the master bedroom and bathroom; practically every room in the house! The open floor plan allows for great entertaining, with an abundance of natural light. The home has been extensively remodeled. Attention to detail is apparent: the aspen tongue and groove ceiling and baseboards, luxurious carpet, tile, gourmet kitchen, travertine bathrooms with fabulous vanities and high end fixtures. The upper, covered wrap around Trex Deck overlooks the river and is a peaceful place to relax. When you are on the lower, covered deck (with Jacuzzi), off the master bedroom, you are "at one" with the river. Paradise!
