Are you ready to live your Ouray County Colorado Dream? This ideally located mountain view home will quickly become your new favorite! It's positioned on one of the area's best building spots-perched on a 4+ acre lot overlooking not just the Sneffels Mountain Range, but also the Uncompahgre River Valley and Ridgway State Park. The home has 3 bedrooms, 2-1/2 baths and is just under 2000 square feet. It offers top quality single level living both inside and out. Unlike other homes in the area, there are no stairs or other transitions, making access and ease of living great. There's a thoughtful Southwest flavor, softened to include the features you've been looking for. You'll instantly be drawn in to the quality, comfortable feel by the front gate opening into the newly landscaped courtyard. The entry leads into the warm and welcoming core of the home, with living room and its big mountain views ahead, music/flex room to your left, master bedroom wing further left, and kitchen, dining room and guest bedrooms down to your right. As you move forward toward the living room you'll instantly be drawn toward the impressive fireplace with stone floor to ceiling hearth, log accents with tongue and groove wood accents above, and Southwest flavor archway leading into the kitchen. The flooring is wide plank engineered wood, and double doors lead out to a fully covered back patio, which extends out from the home and runs across the back of the home, allowing connectivity to the master bedroom on the east and dining room on the west. An arch leads into the kitchen, where you'll appreciate its wealth of cabinetry, quartz counters and quality stainless appliances. You'll never find a better view as you do the dishes or enjoy your morning coffee! There's a comfortably sized dining area adjacent to the kitchen area that's bathed in mountain view light. This will likely become your staging spot for the meals and entertaining you'll have on the back patio. This end of the home also offers two bedrooms with a full bath between. The larger is currently being used as an office, and the smaller offers a tremendous view of the Uncompahgre Valley out its sunny west window. Your favorite feature might just be its master suite-located on the opposite end of the home. Another archway leads past the laundry area to this room, which has double doors entering in to its very comfortable space. A large, open area near its entry offers a comfortable sitting area, workout, yoga or office space. You'll adore the jetted soaking tub, and huge walk in closet. But the oversized walk in 'party shower' with steam will become a necessity you never knew you needed! Even the garage of your future home on 'The Ridge' is special. The entry from the home is spacious, and the room has been divided into a deep two car garage side, with storage cabinets along the side and a workshop, third car garage side, which is outfitted with a kennel and workbenches on the east. Make your plans to come see this impressive, creative home today! You'll appreciate its location midway between Montrose and Ridgway, its access into thousands of acres of public lands, its prominent location perched above the Valley, and it's thoughtfully created and landscaped outside spaces. Come and make it your next home!

This is likely the best location in either Montrose or Ouray County! You'll love how easily you can head to work or the amenities of Montrose, or head toward the hot springs, restaurants, jeeping, hiking-you name it-of Silverton, Ouray, Ridgway and Telluride! First-to find it-turn off 550 at Ouray County Road 4 near PaCoChuPak(Ridgway State Park)and follow west to Ridge Road. This paved road takes you up to your future home. When it ends continue through the culdesac to the home. The home blends the best of Southwest Style with mountain home amenities. You'll enter into a walled in courtyard situated on the north side of the home to allow shade from the afternoon sun. From here, the beautiful entrance door leads you into the great room, which flows through to the patio and incredible mountain views beyond. This room is accented by full logs, a field stone gas fireplace and an alcove that is perfect for a reading area, gaming area-it was built for a pool table-or simply more seating. As you head off to the right from the entrance you pass a half bath, a roomy and showy dining area, two nicely configured bedrooms--one with a overview of the Uncompahgre River far below and guest bath, and the kitchen-which is situated to take in such incredible views that you may even not mind doing dishes! To the master wing end you'll absolutely love the large master bedroom suite, which walks out the views. In fact-the boxed in mountain view in the shots is from the master bedroom patio door! The bathroom is wonderful--walk in closet-soaker tub---and a PARTY shower with steam!
