185 N Lena St Ridgway, CO 81432

This reconstructed property, known as the historic Firehouse from the original True Grit movie, is located in Ridgway, Colorado, near Ouray and Telluride. The property features a state-of-the-art kitchen designed to support a high-end restaurant, as well as a thoughtfully designed event center. It is a turn-key opportunity that includes employee housing and existing staff. The reconstruction involved a complete foundation replacement of the original structure, along with new construction. The event space has doors that open onto an outdoor patio facing the Ridgway town park. A large, heated patio on the north side provides additional restaurant seating and event space. Upstairs, there are 4 employee housing units, each with a balcony, washer/dryer, heat pump for AC and heat, and individually metered gas and electric. Constructed by FCI Contractors, Inc., the building meets or exceeds the 2018 IBC and the IECC Ridgway Standards. The restaurant includes a finishing kitchen adjacent to the bar. The design, by Bray and Co. Architects, incorporates a functional kitchen with the capacity to serve both the restaurant and a wedding or event simultaneously. The property size is 10918 square feet.
