Some homes are built; others are crafted directly into the landscape. Designed by Gretchen Werner-formerly of Frank Gehry Associates-this extraordinary mountain sanctuary was constructed using specialized crane placement to preserve the centuries-old rock outcroppings anchoring its 1.98-acre setting. Every room is thoughtfully oriented to capture and shape natural light throughout the day, pairing refined finishes with the raw beauty of its surroundings. The journey begins at a hand-carved front door bearing a Tibetan symbol for unity and connection, setting a tone of grounded, quiet sophistication. Inside, the great room makes an indelible first impression with soaring timber ceilings, exposed tie-rods, and heated hickory and slate floors. Sweeping windows frame panoramic views of Eldora and the Indian Peaks, seamlessly connecting the interior to the alpine scenery outside. Just off the main living space, the kitchen balances high design with daily function, featuring newly poured concrete countertops, warm cherry cabinetry, custom built-ins, and professional-grade stainless steel appliances.The primary suite serves as a restorative retreat, complete with its own private wood-burning stove, a sun-drenched ensuite bathroom, and a generous walk-in closet outfitted with custom cabinetry. Downstairs, the walkout lower level opens directly to a private patio, expanding the living space outdoors. This level features a secondary family room alongside three additional bedrooms-two of which include private ensuite baths-and a versatile studio space perfect for an office, home gym, or creative workspace. Designed for an active mountain lifestyle, the home includes an oversized heated garage with multiple dedicated storage rooms to accommodate all your outdoor gear. Walk to National Forest trails, and easily hop on the slopes of Eldora Mountain Resort. Minutes from the culture and dining of downtown Nederland, and a seamless 30-minute drive from the heart of Boulder.
