Nestled in the valley between Animas Mountain and Falls Creek, and only 5 minutes to town, this custom home feels like a private mountain sanctuary. This amazing home was built by Will Construction and based on a design by H. Glenn Murray, Architect in 2008 and sits on three and a half acres. It features large decks that surround it with views of the beautiful sandstone cliffs. The structure is comprised of large concrete walls and steel beams and is a blend of modern style with traditional touches. The impressive floating staircase leads to an open living room which showcases the wall of windows on the entire southern side of the house. This allows for great passive solar and radiant floor heat throughout the home, which keeps it cozy in the winter. There is also a large gas fireplace in the living room, adding to the comfortable ambiance of this home. The home includes an attic fan perfect for cooling things down in the summer.The main level features a dining room with a stunning concrete wall and decks to the back of the house. The master bedroom is also on this level and offers private decks and walk-in closets. There is a lovely sitting room/office at the entrance to the master bedroom. The home has two additional bedrooms on the third floor that are accessed by the catwalk above the living/dining room. On the first floor, there is a large open room that would make for a great family or media room.
