INTERIOR FEATURES

GENERAL

One of the most beautiful 35 acres of horse property in Missouri Heights.
Three distinct wings, everyone has plenty of personal space, as well as a coveted open kitchen/dining/great room area.
Designed for seamless integration of living spaces; perfect for entertaining and day to day life.
Vistas include all of the landmark peaks of the valley: Basalt, Aspen, Snowmass, Capitol Peak, Daly, Maroon Bells, Sopris, Chair and Sunlight. Invision a lifestyle rooted in nature.
While mountains dominate the background, the scene just outside the windows has a beauty all its own—rolling sagebrush hills checkered with verdant horse pastures.

GREAT ROOM

Red rock hearth of the great room fireplace echoes the Maroon Mountains that define the home’s grand views.
Another “green” feature, the living room fireplace—with an air circulation system to help heat the home—boasts the beauty of the log fire with the efficiency of a furnace.
The hearth is a home—shelving unit built into the hearth wall is designed to be a home for a top-notch audio/visual system with a room large enough for a large screen television and a sound system to feed the room’s built in speakers.
Grand trusses span the living room’s peaked wood-plank ceiling.
Golden pine floor joins together the living room, kitchen, sunroom and dining room.
Encompassed by glass, which frames a tableau that stretches from the gentle slopes of nearby Basalt Mt to the serrated peaks of the Elk Range and is crowned by a regal view of Mt. Sopris.
Opens to a large stone patio—an invitation to easy indoor/outdoor living during Missouri Height’s lingering summers.
The great room and kitchen are joined by a tall granite-topped counter—just the place to set-up munchies or drinks when entertaining. This home doubles in entertaining space once all of the sliding glass doors are opened up!

POWDER ROOM

Contemporarily styled, the powder room in the front hall features a pedestal sink with a glass basin surrounded by a granite countertop.

KITCHEN

The home’s heart—bordered by the living room on one side, the dining room on the opposite side and a warm sunroom to its front.
Deep (two-feet) granite counters edge the island kitchen—put out all your favorite small appliances and still have room to cook.
Black lacquer, rubbed back so that it only remains in the bevels, gives the warm wood custom designed cabinetry a timeless look. Two showcase cabinets have glass fronts and shelving.
GE Monogram gas-burning, four-burner stove is capped by a stainless steel hood and backsplash, giving the chef a gourmet comfort.
GE Monogram side-by-side refrigerator/freezer is faced with wood paneling to match the cabinetry.
GE Monogram oven is built into a kitchen wall at counter height—it’s never been so easy to get dinner into and out of the oven. Another nice touch: the warming drawer below the oven.
Stacked above the oven is a built-in GE Monogram Microwave with the same stainless steel facing as the other top-of-the-line GE appliances.
Granite-topped kitchen island has a split-level design with a breakfast bar on one side and an inset dual-chamber sink surrounded by cooking space on the other. The island is finished with hammered tin siding.

SUNROOM

Great morning sunlight, 50-mile views, and a classic freestanding gas heat stove—the sunroom could be one of the finest places anywhere to enjoy a cup of coffee and the day’s paper.
Comfy sitting room extends past the main part of the house; wrapped in glass on three sides it soaks in sun all day long. This floorplan could easily be switched with the dining area, many possibilities.

DINING ROOM

Just the right setting (open to the kitchen) and scale (intimate yet airy) to coax daily use. A big mountain vista doesn’t hurt either.
Features a charming hand-blown glass and metal chandelier accented with floral motifs.
Sliding glass door opens from the dining room to a red flagstone patio, ushering in summer breezes or even encouraging meals to be taken outdoors. Gas grill conveniently connected to the main gas line.
Enveloped in natural wood—planked floors, walls, and ceilings, the dining room has a distinctive natural appeal.

MASTER BEDROOM

Enjoy the privacy of being all by itself on the second floor of the home’s central wing.
The suite’s long walk-in closet, tucked away behind a pocket door, has two tiers of clothes racks along one side and bountiful shelving on the other.
Big mullioned windows to the south and east assure that you’ll awaken to sun each of the Rocky’s 300 days of clear skies per year. They also dish-up from the pillow views of the Elk Range.
Private deck stands off the master suite where you can look over the property’s 35-acres (and say good morning to your horses). A perfect opportunity to expand the master square footage.
Peaked ceiling accommodates a set of built-in speakers, recessed lighting, and a ceiling fan.
A pair of sconces—made of handmade paper, steel and bamboo—stand out in the bedroom’s décor.
A special hideaway is reached by a ladder in the walk-in closet—a cupola with a peaked ceiling (just barely standing height) brightened by a pair of windows and a skylight.

MASTER BATH

Ecru-hued slabs of granite rest atop an abundance of wood cabinetry in the master bath. The counters are home to His and Hers Decolav sinks.
Open Jacuzzi tub rests at the end of the room, under a sunny window.
Thermasol steam shower is adorned in 12” stone tile inlaid with shells and is accessed by a solid glass door.

EAST WING

Reached by a bright window-lit staircase that opens into an office, which, in turn, connects to a guest bedroom with a full bath.
The office—with sunny views, a private patio, and a heating stove—is a flexible space that could easily be transformed into a caretakers unit, a den, an art studio, or a secluded master guest suite with its own sitting room, private patio and extra nice private entrance.

EAST WING BEDROOM

Under a steeply peaked ceiling, which, along with a wealth of windows, gives the space an open character.
Stone tile, in shades of gray, dresses the floor and bath/shower surround of the bathroom.
Tidy pedestal sink, adorned with Mexican-style azure blue tiles and patterns, brightens the bath’s corner.

WEST GUEST WING

Two guest bedrooms reside in the seclusion of the home’s west wing—one on the ground floor and the other upstairs. A hallway door allows the wing—which has its own door to the exterior—to be shut off from the rest of the home, creating privacy and peace.
 

WEST WING BEDROOM: DOWNSTAIRS

Wrap-around windows in the bedroom take in a panoramic view that starts with the backyard horse pasture and doesn’t quit until it reaches the Aspen/Snowmass ski hills.
Features an exterior door to a private flagstone patio.
A long walk-through closet (with built-in shelves and access to additional under-stairs storage) connects the bedroom with its bath.
Weathered white wood cabinetry and a variety of rose-toned tiling gives the bath a warm feel. It offers an open tub, a stone-walled shower, and a granite counter vanity.

WEST WING BEDROOM: UPSTAIRS

Arrive into a small foyer between the bedroom and bath—just the place to hang-up the accouterments of an active mountain life.
Like the bedroom below, this guest room has wrap-around windows to the south and east that take in huge views of Mt. Sopris and the Elk Range.
Twelve foot peaked ceiling soars over this sunny bedroom.
Adjoining bath is outfitted with a large glass-walled shower adorned in light sage tiling.
A ladder to a private lofted, quiet place tucked over the foyer.

FAMILY ROOM

Subterranean level is defined by a wealth of uninterrupted space—perfect for a big family room that can accommodate play space for the younger kids and a large media center for everyone to share.
Two sliding door closets bring plenty of storage to the family room, with additional walk-in storage room.
Beverage service area in the family room’s entryway is equipped with a granite counter and a small GE fridge as well as, state-of-the-art utility room. Combined this creates efficiency and more storage space.

LAUNDRY ROOM

Conveniently located on the main level—a way to mesh aesthetics and flow—a sink, and supply storage shelving with space to hang long underwear and wet mittens.

EXTERIOR FEATURES

Thirty five acre lot consists of rolling hills flecked with sagebrush. A horse pasture with a small barn is situated just a 100-feet on the south side.
Contemporary mountain style architecture is expressed differently on the exterior of the homes three wings with natural cedar for the center wing and a gray weathered wood siding for the side wings.
Red stone deck wraps around the home from the living room to the dining room. Sit and watch the sun set, an absolute essence of gentile living.
Meadows surrounding the home are beautiful, ever changing yet always the same, as is the stately view of the towering Mt. Sopris.
Groundwork has been laid for subdividing the property with two additional building envelopes. Securing final permissions from Eagle County would rest with the buyer. Seller to deliver all details & ideas put forth so far.
