A private residential elevator connects all three floors, opening onto a main level designed for smooth transitions between daily living and upscale entertaining. The central living room features a coffered ceiling with custom inset panels and a folding glass wall system that slides open to an elevated, screened balcony. This space flows directly into a kitchen equipped with a functional centerpiece island and breakfast bar, which sits adjacent to a dramatic formal dining room defined by a double-height vaulted ceiling, heavy accent molding, and a prominent floor-to-ceiling fireplace. A main-level guest bedroom suite, an attached garage, and a full bathroom complete this floor's highly accessible layout. The upper level serves as a private primary sanctuary, hosting an expansive bedroom with its own viewing balcony and bathroom featuring a deep soaking tub and separate walk-in shower. This upper floor also includes a large walk-in wardrobe and laundry area, alongside a flexible bonus room perfect for an executive office or media den. Below, the walk-out lower level is configured for leisure or guest privacy, centered around a spacious family room with a fully equipped wet bar and premium cabinetry. French doors open from the family room to a beautifully paved courtyard patio that captures sweeping views of the surrounding lush greenery and rolling mountain ridges, creating an idyllic backdrop for outdoor relaxation. This level also accommodates an additional private bedroom, a versatile den, a full bathroom, a separate laundry/utility room, and two storage closets. Combining upscale architectural design, multi-generational flexibility, and lock-and-leave convenience, this townhouse represents the pinnacle of premium mountain living.
