Situated on the sunny side of Buffehr Creek Road, this exceptional single-family home offers over 6,150 square feet of refined mountain living on more than 5 private acres - one of the largest homesites in the town of Vail. Completed in 2013, the property enjoys remarkable privacy, bordered by the Town of Vail Nature Preserve and U.S. Forest Service land, ensuring long-term tranquility and unobstructed mountain views. The home features five bedrooms, seven baths, and expansive living spaces designed for both elegance and comfort. The main living area showcases vaulted ceilings with historic reclaimed barn beams from Switzerland, a grand stone fireplace, and large windows that frame sweeping views of Grouse Mountain and the surrounding alpine landscape. The gourmet kitchen is equipped with Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, two dishwashers, ample pantry space, and a large island that opens to a bright dining area and great room. An elevator connects all levels, and radiant heat on the lower floor pairs with central air for year-round comfort. The spacious primary suite includes a luxurious bath, and is conveniently next to a large office, while the family/media room offers a relaxed gathering space. Outdoor living is exceptional, featuring a large deck with a summer kitchen and a dramatic fire wall for evening ambiance. A heated three-car garage, generous mudroom, and seven-minute drive to Vail Village complete this one-of-a-kind, 5-acre mountain retreat with no I-70 impact and unmatched privacy in a premier Vail location.
