- An Inviting Mountain Star Home with Deep Vail Valley Roots -
Located on an exclusive forested lot at the top of a tranquil cul-de-sac, this desirable homesite was hand-picked by an iconic Vail Valley real estate company founder to be a cherished family home. Enveloped within a dramatic stand of towering aspen, the home is ideally situated on a 3.47-acre lot with panoramic views of Beaver Creek and Bachelor Gulch Resorts and beyond to Mt. Jackson, Gold Dust Peak, and New York Mountain in the Sawatch Range.
Just outside, a wildflower-drenched meadow with converging trails calls for adventure yet, it’s a quick drive to the valley below with nearby fine-dining, boutique shopping, Vail and Beaver Creek. The great room features a remarkable display of windows showcasing the views with multiple French doors to access an extensive exterior patio that runs the length of the home. At one end is a hot tub and fully powered chic garden atrium, while the opposite end has an outdoor lounge and fireplace. A large open kitchen offers gourmet amenities, center island with seating, glass-front cabinetry, and a peninsula pass-through to the dining area. An adjoining breakfast nook with patio access is nestled in sunny bay windows, and a refined wine tasting room with seating offers an abundance of wine storage. The dining area and great room enjoy expansive views, soaring vaulted ceiling, and the warm embrace of a statement fireplace with immense stone surround. A sun-dappled sitting area next to the fireplace is the perfect spot to ponder the surrounding alpine beauty. The main level primary suite has an exquisite study featuring a stunning display cabinet and sitting area in front of a graceful stone fireplace, and a custom curved desk that follows the bay window line with far-reaching views. The suite has an ensuite bath with dual vanity, rain shower and soaking tub, and a private patio with exterior steps leading to a unique alfresco viewing tower and pergola.
The lower-level has two ensuite bedrooms and a flex third room with south-facing views and private outdoor access. An oversized 2-car garage offers ample storage for outdoor gear and connects to the main level by mud room, ski storage and laundry. Above the garage is a vast yet adaptable living space with a separate entrance, vaulted ceilings, private balcony, and ensuite bedroom.
