Perched at the top of the world, this extraordinary estate offers more than a home—it delivers a lifestyle defined by awe-inspiring beauty, serenity, and elevation in every sense. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted by truly unmatched, long-range, year-round mountain views that stretch endlessly across the horizon, creating a daily backdrop that feels nothing short of cinematic.
This immaculate custom-built residence was thoughtfully designed to capture and celebrate those views from nearly every angle. The living room becomes your personal front-row seat to nature’s masterpiece, where expansive windows frame the mountains like living art—sunrises, sunsets, and rolling clouds included.
At the heart of the home, a spacious, well-appointed kitchen offers both functionality and elegance, featuring abundant cabinetry, generous storage, and ample room to gather, entertain, and create. Whether hosting guests or enjoying a quiet evening, the flow of this home is both inviting and impressive.
The owner’s suite is a private retreat unto itself—generously sized and positioned to take full advantage of the breathtaking scenery. Imagine waking each morning to sweeping mountain vistas, stepping directly onto your private front deck, and starting your day above it all. The deck, complete with a large hot tub, invites you to unwind while soaking in some of the most captivating views imaginable.
Downstairs, the finished basement expands your living possibilities with a flexible layout that includes office space, a potential second living area, and even more room to tailor to your lifestyle. A private sauna and tanning bed elevate the experience, creating a spa-like environment within your own home, while additional storage ensures everything has its place. A two-car garage adds convenience, while every detail throughout the home reflects quality craftsmanship and intentional design.
This is more than a property—it’s a rare opportunity to live immersed in the beauty of the mountains, where every day feels like a getaway and every moment is elevated.
No drive by's, gated property.
