Nestled in an aspen forest between downtown Steamboat and Fish Creek Falls, this terrific family home with 3,251sf is rich with architectural details including spectacular picture windows that frame views of the ski area and Howelsen Hill. Soaring 22-foot ceilings and newly refinished knotty oak floors highlight the great room, which is anchored by the floor-to-ceiling fireplace featuring a custom built mantle and native rock. It is a pleasure to prepare family meals in the gourmet kitchen with slab granite, custom cabinetry, a 5-burner gas cooktop and large pantry, and enjoy these meals on the covered, low maintenance deck amongst the rustling aspen trees. Other features of the home include radiant heat on 3 levels, speaker/sound system throughout, oversized steam shower in master with dual heads, a heated garage, large mudroom with built-in bench and cubbies, and a spacious loft that functions beautifully as an office or yoga spot, but could easily become a 4th bedroom while still leaving space for a separate office. The home was designed with passive solar in mind keeping it cozy warm in winters and cool in summers thanks to low-e glass and covered decks. The lower level walks out from the large family/media room to a covered hot tub and irrigated landscape, which includes native grass and wildflowers, combined with a small lawn and perennial flower beds which require minimal care. Located on a quiet neighborhood street with nearly all permanent residents, you are just steps from a hiking/biking trail which leads to the high school and town, and one home away from the Steamboat school bus stop. The property sits in county (lower property tax) but is served by city water and sewer.
