Supplements
Nearly every room opens to a deck or outdoor living area, seamlessly blending indoor comfort with the tranquil riverfront setting. Above the two-car attached garage, a bonus room awaits future development, offering endless possibilities for additional living, studio, or guest space. The sellers invested heavily by planting in a variety of trees and plants during their ownership: Colorado Blue Spruce, Aspens, Redwood Dawns, Lilacs, Silver Buffalo Berry, Weeping Norway Spruce, Golden and Red Current, Junipers, Red Ocher Dogwood and so many more. The property benefited from the recent 1.7 Million dollar river restoration and Ward Ditch improvements with the Uncompahgre Multi-Benefit Project (UMB) completed in fall of 2025. Two additional custom sheds were designed to replicate the historic structures of the old Portland town site on which the property resides. With no HOA/Covenants, 2 ditch laterals and multiple control points, a 60' fill pond and accompanied by water rights from the Ward Ditch, the possibilities for the new owner are endless. The home had a fire in January 2023 and that fire damage that has not been mitigated. 17101 Highway 550 is being sold As Is with fire damage. This property is a rare and impressive offering in the Ouray/Ridgway Valley and with the right vision, will be a wonderful legacy property for the new owner.
