Discover a rare opportunity to own a rustic cabin situated on a historic mining claim along the slopes of legendary Red Mountain. Located just outside Ouray on the scenic route to Silverton, Colorado, this property offers an exceptional blend of history, privacy, and natural beauty. Several years ago, Ouray County prohibited the construction of additional cabins on Red Mountain mining claims, rendering properties like this truly scarce. Access is gained by driving through the historic Guston townsite—an 1880s silver mining camp whose remnants remain visible today—adding distinctive character and a tangible connection to the region’s storied past. The cabin features stunning views of the San Juan Mountains, framed perfectly by the front room window. Off-grid and thoughtfully constructed for durability and simplicity, it includes a functional back deck with a generous overhang. This covered outdoor space provides shelter from the elements while offering an ideal setting for outdoor dining and taking in the surrounding alpine scenery. With two bedrooms and one bathroom, the cabin strikes an appealing balance of understated comfort and rustic charm. Schedule a private showing today to experience this unique mountain retreat before it is gone.

WHAT'S YOUR OURAY DREAM? Has Ouray become your special place—a place where you escape the busy pace of life, leave the car behind and reconnect with the things that matter most? Perhaps you dream of having more time to read, write, create, explore and finally finish the projects you've been considering for years. Maybe your family discovered the “Switzerland of America” generations ago, and you're ready to create a legacy property for the people you love. Or perhaps hiking, skiing, jeeping, ice climbing, photography and the endless possibilities of the San Juan Mountains simply call to you at a deeper level. If you've been dreaming about actually living in Ouray, this exceptional Oak Street location may be the opportunity you've been waiting for. Perched on one of Ouray's most remarkable residential streets, this 1,784-square-foot home occupies a special setting overlooking town with spectacular views of the iconic Ouray Amphitheatre, its legendary alpenglow, Cascade Falls, Gold Hill, Mount Abrams and the surrounding San Juan Mountains. From here, the Fourth of July and New Year's Eve fireworks appear almost directly overhead, while the soothing sound of the Uncompahgre River provides a remarkably peaceful backdrop at the end of the day. It is a setting that feels quintessentially Ouray. And the location is every bit as compelling as the views. Step out your front door and you're within easy reach of the Box Canyon area, Oak Creek Trail and multiple access points to the Ouray Perimeter Trail. Walk to the world-famous Ouray Hot Springs Pool, explore the town's historic streets, or enjoy dinner downtown before taking a leisurely walk home. This is the kind of location that allows you to experience Ouray as a resident rather than simply as a visitor. Inside, the home's single-level floor plan offers exceptional convenience, whether you're looking for a full-time Ouray residence, mountain getaway, seasonal home or future legacy property. The central living, dining and office areas enjoy wonderful eastern exposure and big mountain views, while the surprisingly spacious kitchen and mudroom occupy the rear of the home with convenient access to the side parking area and backyard. Three generously sized bedrooms include a primary suite positioned to capture views overlooking town. The primary bath features a beautiful walk-in shower, while the second bath adds its own distinctive personality with a skylight framing views toward Twin Peaks and a relaxing soaking tub. The office just inside the entry may become one of your favorite spaces—a sunny, inspiring place for working remotely, writing, reading, morning coffee or simply enjoying the spectacular Ouray setting. Outside, the larger-than-average town lot is surrounded by massive natural boulders that seem to stand guard around the property. The home sits comfortably in the center of the lot, leaving meaningful opportunities to expand or create additional outdoor living spaces. The backyard is particularly inviting, with a large protected patio, access to the elevated portion of the yard and a fully fenced setting framed by those magnificent boulders. From the upper yard, enjoy expansive mountain views toward Rock of Ages and the Amphitheatre. There is a wonderful sense of privacy here while remaining remarkably close to everything that makes Ouray special. The property is located in an area of town where 30-day-or-longer mid-term rentals are allowed, providing additional flexibility for owners. The home has also been thoughtfully furnished for rental use through a local rental company, with furnishings available separately by bill of sale. Ouray water and sewer, natural gas, conventional power and high-speed internet add everyday convenience.
