Affordable Ouray opportunity! This 2-bed, 1-bath home is walking distance to everything in town, with a lovely backyard and views of the Amphitheater and Twin Peaks. Recent updates include new flooring (2022), new windows with a transferable warranty (2023), new blinds (2023), and quality new appliances (2023). The forced-air ducts were professionally cleaned in 2025. A metal roof tops the house, and a high-end wood stove keeps it cozy through the winter. Two storage sheds are included. The zoning allows multi-family use and short-term vacation rentals, so it works as a full-time home, second home, or income property. Schedule your showing today.
