If you’ve been searching for the perfect mountain view home in Southwest Colorado, this exceptional property on nearly 10 acres on the north edge of Ridgway in beautiful Ouray County deserves your attention. Ideally located between Telluride, Ouray, and Montrose, this architect-designed contemporary residence offers the rare combination of big Sneffels and Cimarron Mountain views, privacy, easy access, acreage, and rental flexibility (subject to subdivision guidelines). Perched above the valley with the Uncompahgre River below, the home feels as if it floats above the landscape, surrounded by open sky, wildlife, and uninterrupted scenery. The main residence is thoughtfully designed across three levels to capture light and views from nearly every room. The main level opens through a practical airlock mudroom into a stunning, light-filled great room with a full wall of glass facing south toward the Ridgway-Ouray Valley. The gourmet kitchen features granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, and stainless appliances, while the unique kiva-style dining room with curved glass walls faces east to welcome the morning sun. The living room is warm and inviting with sliding wall that almost completely eliminates any glass or doors to block the incredible views. One of the primary suites is conveniently located on this level with private deck access, a spacious walk-in closet with its own laundry, and a spa-inspired bath featuring a glass-enclosed shower and jetted soaking tub positioned to immerse you in the surrounding mountain views. Upstairs, an additional primary suite acts as a private escape, with bright central gathering area leading to private sleeping quarters on one end that has another view-oriented glass shower. Intelligently located wings lead to a generous closet space, and access to a covered cupola offering breathtaking 360-degree panoramic views. Additionally, this level has a covered east facing covered deck that’s perfect for a future hot tub or relaxation area as well as a convenient half bath. The walk-out lower level provides flexible space for a family room, fitness area, studio, or future expansion, along with a third regally sized bedroom and additional unfinished areas ready to customize to your needs. One of the most desirable features of this property is the detached oversized garage and auxiliary dwelling unit (ADU), carefully positioned to preserve the home’s sightlines and mountain views. The lower level garage is designed to accommodate a host of vehicles with multiple access doors and ample storage for outdoor gear and recreational vehicles. Above, the ADU offers a fully independent living space with its own entrance, kitchen, full bath, living area, and separate bedroom. This auxiliary residence is ideal for guests, multi-generational living, a caretaker, or potential long-term rental income, subject to subdivision guidelines—making this a rare opportunity for buyers seeking both lifestyle and investment potential in the Ridgway and Telluride corridor. The nearly 10-acre parcel extends toward the Uncompahgre River, offering privacy, space to explore, and room to enjoy the natural beauty that defines Southwest Colorado. Wildlife sightings of deer, elk, bald eagles, and hawks are part of everyday life here. With convenient access to skiing in Telluride, hiking and hot springs in Ouray, services and the regional airport in Montrose, and the charm of downtown Ridgway just minutes away, this property captures everything buyers are searching for in a Colorado mountain home with views, acreage, and an ADU. This is a rare opportunity to own a private mountain sanctuary in the heart of one of Colorado’s most sought-after regions.
