A sunny drive welcomes. A young grove of Aspens, luscious
green lawn, a trickling fountain, spring flowers, a secret sitting spot... all beckon you to enter this 4900 square foot, 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath handcrafted home.
Step
inside the front door of this light, bright home to find a sunny, formal
living room, an inviting fireplace, and a large dining room waiting to
entertain.
The entry pulls you forward toward the spacious great room.
A gorgeous, Extraordinaire fireplace surrounded by bird’s-eye slate creates a
dramatic focal point, accented by high ceilings, large windows and private,
ravine views. A roomy guest suite with lovely mountain vistas featuring
professionally organized closets is tucked off to the side.
Sliding glass doors lead to a large back deck where hawks
occasionally land to survey the landscape. A Sunbrella shade with wind sensors
will automatically retract if the breezes become too strong. Stubbed for gas,
your outdoor entertainment area is ready-to-go.
Back inside, the gourmet kitchen features Thermador
stainless steel appliances including a five-burner range, dishwasher,
refrigerator, trash compactor, and double ovens that offer a dehydrating
convection feature. Slab granite countertops with a tumbled travertine
backsplash and Dynasty-Artesia cherry cabinets create a warm, inviting look,
all centered around an enormous kitchen island complete with veggie sink,
crowned by designer pendant lighting. True cooks will appreciate the many
abundant storage options via drawers, cabinets and a walk-in pantry. And
whoever does the dishes will never want to stop, as the sink enjoys
magnificent, straight-on views down a ravine into downtown
The focal point of the adjoining breakfast area is a
charming, petite fireplace, affording the added luxury of fireside dining with
the flick of a switch. A built-in, tile-topped buffet with Sub-Zero wine cooler
makes that end-of-the-day cocktail a breeze. An integrated desk area tucked
into an unobtrusive corner is the perfect finishing touch in this
well-appointed, family-friendly kitchen.
A custom, curved staircase with handcrafted railings offset
by arched ceilings makes for an elegant transition down to the private areas of
the house.
The stairway leads right to a sumptuous master suite. Large bay
windows, plush cream carpet and a travertine bath area invite one to linger and
relax in the jetted master tub. His and her sinks are comfortably proportioned
for taller people.
A separate steam shower with four shower heads, including
two body sprays, offer that illusive spa experience.
Dry off after in front of
your private master fireplace. Views embrace the natural setting, where window
treatments are optional. A shaded deck beckons, inviting you outside for a
quiet, private moment.
Downstairs you will also find a craft room, a wine room, an
exercise room, a laundry room with a chute, two more guest suites and storage
under the house.
Throughout this finely crafted home you will find travertine
tile, cherry cabinets, detailed crown moldings, baseboards and door trim,
12-foot ceilings, 8-foot doors, surround sound, central vacuum and an intercom
system. Low E windows and double-honeycomb blinds add to the home’s energy
efficiency. The insulated and finished three-car garage includes plenty of
built-in storage, attic storage steps, speakers, a sink, and room to spread
out.
