INTERIOR FEATURES

A rustic, multi-paneled door is surrounded by sidelights made of panes of beveled glass. Soaring windows above light the entry and the staircase before you. A red brick floor and rough hewn wall set a casual tone. There is a wood bench for slipping boots on and off and double closet for coat storage. Peer over the bench to the living room and views of the aspen groves and surrounding mountains.
An open staircase naturally lit by a wall of windows connects three levels of chalet-like living space marked by vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams, and knock-out views. An abundance of windows and sunny decks seamlessly unite the indoors with the surrounding nature outside. The main living areas including the living room, dining room, a remodeled kitchen, powder room, and laundry room occupy the first level. The second and third floors each consist of three bedrooms and a full bath. There are extra sinks in the bedrooms.
The spacious living area appears even larger given the vaulted wood ceilings, the exposed beams and walls of windows that showcase views from Hanging Valley to Red Mountain to Basalt Mountain. These rooms seem to be set in the surrounding aspen trees. The casual red brick floors are warmed by colorful area rugs.
The red brick woodburning fireplace in the living room features a rustic wood mantle and bricks reclaimed from the Leadville bank, torn down in the 1960's. Built-in cabinets and shelves hold all your favorite games and novels. A comfortable, traditional-style sofa and two oversized leather chairs are arranged around a rustic barnwood coffee table—a great place to soak up the views, engage in lively conversation, or warm by the fire. Engaging antique accent pieces add a touch of whimsy. A game table with four leather chairs awaits a game of chess or Uno. Also for your entertainment—a Sony Trinitron flat-screen TV, Sony DVD/CD player, and GE VHS player. A glass door leads to a sun-filled deck overlooking the ski area.
Dine among the arbors and the mountains in the dining room with floor-to-ceiling windows and vaulted ceilings with exposed beams. A glass door opens to a deck for outdoor dining and forever views. A charming wrought iron chandelier hangs above a farmhouse-style table and six chairs with rush seats. A lockable closet holds your china and table linens.
You’ll love gazing out to the views of Hanging Valley from the updated kitchen that’s open to the dining room. Thick granite slab countertops with chiseled edges, plus vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, recessed and track lighting make this kitchen a delight. Appliances include a double stainless sink by Grohe, GE Profile flat-top range and oven, Amana refrigerator/freezer, Kenmore dishwasher, and a Sharp Carousel convection/microwave oven.
The spacious powder room has a round sink with brushed bronze fixtures and a vanity area with a chair for quick touch-ups.
A door leads to the laundry/locker room from the powder room. This room contains several lockable wood storage lockers and lockable cabinets ideal for recreational gear. A deep laundry sink and lots of counter space also come in handy. The washer and dryer are made by Maytag. Convenient laundry chutes from the second and third levels leads to the first floor, next to the powder room.
This home has ample storage with a large storage area behind a door in the hallway, plus an additional storage room downstairs with shelves and a bonus GE dryer.
A full bath features a wall of glass blocks in the tiled tub/shower allowing natural light. There is a linen closet just outside.
Views of mature aspen and evergreens, plus the downvalley mountains are the sights from the master bedroom. This room has an old country feel. An ornate antique unvented woodburning stove is perched on a corner brick pedestal surrounded by a tiled wall. A large Old World carved dresser with wood framed mirror coordinates with the queen bed headboard, made of a Spanish 17th century door and two bed tables. A sitting area is comprised of two chairs and an antique table. A double closet has built-in shelving.
Guests in the other bedroom on this level will enjoy views of Hanging Valley. A bi-fold door conceals a convenient vanity area with oval sink, mirror, cabinet, and medicine cabinet. Twin beds with red-stained headboards are complemented with a country-style appliqué. A large dark wood dresser with carved wood drawer fronts and two closets provide clothes storage.
A full bath accommodates guests on the top level. It features recessed lighting and a tile tub/shower surround.
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame views of the Big Burn in another guest bedroom. This is a refreshing, light and airy room with two twin beds, a dresser and upholstered chair. A door hides a handy vanity area with sink. There are two closets.
The other guest bedroom on the top floor with vaulted ceilings and mountain views is warmly decorated with twin beds of oak. There is a dresser, bed table, hidden vanity, and two closets.
