Tucked into an exclusive alpine cul de sac directly across from Vail Mountain, this exquisite example of mountain modern exterior meets Scandinavian hospitality interior captures the essence of Vail living. Bathed in iconic views of LionsHead, the Eagle Bahn Gondola, and west to Beaver Creek, this home holds particular significance for renowned Vail custom design-build team Krueger Architecture and Holm Construction, conceived as a family home for the construction company’s owner. In the heart of Vail, this quiet respite honors the landscape with astute detail.
A light, bright entry with “floating” wood/steel stairs leads to a stunning main level great room with a chic open-floorplan and fluid elements that celebrate indoor/outdoor living. Zero threshold sliders reveal an expansive south-facing deck with gas firepit and spectacular views. Vaulted ceilings with impressive steel beams are complimented by neutral oak engineered floors, dry stack stone hearth, and calming natural light.
The sophisticated kitchen style features a custom-built island and elevated wrap-around bar of inlay wood, while the adjacent banquette provides lush intimate seating. Features include Wolf, Sub Zero, and Miele appliances, two dishwashers, private grilling patio, and an oversized walk-in pantry with beverage cooler and dumbwaiter access to the garage below. Dramatic Vail Mountain views are a highlight of the primary suite featuring power window treatments, private deck, and stately bath with free-standing soaking tub, steam shower, and dual custom walk-in wardrobe.
A versatile main-level room with westerly views of Beaver Creek and the Sawatch Range can be used as an office or studio. The lower level has three ensuite bedrooms, a rec room with surround sound and built-in storage, an accommodating laundry room with two sets of full-sized washer/dryers, and ample personal storage. The 3-car, heated garage has copious space for outdoor gear, a craftsman’s workbench, and dumbwaiter terminus.
