You'll notice when you look at the shots that the home is in move in ready condition. The owner is a taxidermist, and the 33x40 foot, completely finished off garage/workshop has been the location for his creative genius. It's heated, has running water, and could be outfitted for a full bathroom if you choose to do so. The land is level and easily accessed, with the northern half completely fenced with animal friendly fencing. A creek flows through the midpoint of the property, and here you cross the historic low railroad trestle, which serves as your own semi-private bridge into your property. As you head south, the property widens out to the home and shop locations, then gently drops into the Uncompahgre River and comes to a point on the bank on the other side of the river. Fishing is good here, and during the fall you'll be able to enjoy the salmon run, as they move up the river from the reservoir. There are few more versatile properties in Ouray County--use it as your home and shop/garage. Bring your horses. Have it be your weekend escape on the river. Rent out the home or rent out the shop. I love the idea of having a place to enjoy on your own for the majority of the year, but also a place for your 50 best friends to come and enjoy--there's so much room for parking of RV's, jeeps, motorcoaches--you name it! The shop becomes the gathering spot for meals and cards. The fact that there are no restrictions makes it yours to dream up the perfect use of this mountain view river property located just north of Ridgway.
