If you’re looking to put down roots outside the Lone Star State, look no further than 739 Clinton Street in Ridgway in the beautiful San Juan Mountains.

Step Inside Your Perfect Mountain Escape

739 Clinton Street was the builder’s personal residence, so you know every detail is going to be exactly on point. It’s on sale for $1,680,000. This truly one-of-a-kind custom mountain home in Ridgway was thoughtfully designed and built by renowned longtime Telluride builder Clark Thomas for his own family. Every detail reflects exceptional craftsmanship, artistic vision, and enduring quality, creating a home that feels both architecturally significant and deeply welcoming.

A dramatic, 12-foot circular, spiral staircase trimmed in reclaimed antique redwood anchors the main living space and sets the tone, as well as its tie to the majesty of the mountain. The staircase is an architectural centerpiece that anchors the home’s flowing design and distinctive character. Rich, hand-selected materials, sculptural forms, intimate gathering spaces, and abundant natural light combine to create an atmosphere that is both refined and comfortable. Each room offers its own unique sense of warmth, beauty, and connection to the surrounding mountain landscape.

To better connect with the landscape, the home features clear Douglas fir details throughout, as well as concrete countertops and tile floors that balance beauty with durability. The kitchen is outfitted with a Viking cooktop and custom hood, Viking built-in double ovens, a 48-inch Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a generous walk-in pantry. A 1890 antique parlor wood stove adds warmth and character to the main living area.

Moving to the primary suite, enjoy travertine marble tile with a Euro glass shower, whirlpool tub, and a custom walk-in closet. The main home’s third-level loft evokes the feeling of a serene treehouse retreat and is perfect as a studio, office, library, or additional guest space. No detail was left behind.

Outside, the home is just as luxurious as inside. The lot is fully landscaped with mature trees. The detached garage offers three-car or two-car configurations plus a workshop wired with 220V. Above the garage, a fully appointed studio apartment with its own kitchen and bathroom serves as ideal guest quarters and accounts for the home’s fourth bedroom and third bath. It’s the perfect multi-generational home, or a place for friends to gather from all corners of the region.
