Sitting in a south-facing sun-bathed meadow, this beautiful home will capture all the reasons to live in the mountains. Located in the small, gated community of Elkin's Meadows along with 19 other homes, this property sits on 2.66 acres of its own, among 105 acres in the development with 55 acres of common space.
The home was drawn by the award winning firm Vertical Arts Architecture and was purposefully designed to capture the unique and exclusive features of Fish Creek Falls Canyon. The sprawling design allows for 4,000sf of the home to be on the main level at grade. Included on the main level is the primary bedroom wing that tucks into the quiet aspens to the north with its own fireplace and private patio. Leaving the primary bedroom, you find yourself walking through a serene aspen grove via a hallway lined with windows that leads to a kitchen designed to make you feel like you're in ...
The home was drawn by the award winning firm Vertical Arts Architecture and was purposefully designed to capture the unique and exclusive features of Fish Creek Falls Canyon. The sprawling design allows for 4,000sf of the home to be on the main level at grade. Included on the main level is the primary bedroom wing that tucks into the quiet aspens to the north with its own fireplace and private patio. Leaving the primary bedroom, you find yourself walking through a serene aspen grove via a hallway lined with windows that leads to a kitchen designed to make you feel like you're in the forests of Narnia. Windows trace the whole perimeter of the kitchen and include a 16ft nanawall that opens to the outdoor dining area and stone fireplace. You'll feel like the elk and moose are walking through your house when they cross your lot. The gallery-like dining room separates the kitchen from the great room that sits in the southern sun with amazing views of the canyon cliffs and Elkin's conservation wetlands. The dramatic fireplace anchors the great room while the vaulted ceilings and surrounding glass makes it feel like you are outside under the stars. Another nanawall system opens onto the covered patio that overlooks a private pond. Upstairs you'll find three more bedrooms, all ensuite, and a guest suite with a private balcony that sits in the tops of the aspens. The upstairs family room has expansive views of the ski area, Fish Creek Canyon and west of the Elkin's wetlands and Emerald Mountain. The home is 4,685sf and includes 5 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms. The three-car garage is an additional 921sf.
The lot is approximately 60% dense aspen forest to the north and 40% grassy meadow on the south where the home will be located. It features a small pond on the south corner and Little Fish Creek winds through the aspens at the north and leaves the property at the meadow to the southwest.
Elkins Meadow includes stocked trout ponds and a community boathouse for get-togethers. The large pond has a swimming area with a beach with canoeing, paddle boarding, firepit, kitchen, and bathroom. The property is only one mile from Fish Creek Falls trailhead, 2 miles from world-class restaurants, 3 miles to Howelsen Hill, and 5 miles to Steamboat Ski Area.
