This magnificent Red Mountain Ranch home has garnered multiple national architectural awards including the American Institute of Building Design â?? 2013 Best Home Over 2,500 sq ft. and Best Home 2013 Readerâ??s Choice Award â?? Timber Home Living. The house has also been prominently featured in the... Texas Timber Frame Co. brochure. The secluded and refined estate is affectionately called The Tree House.

Tucked away amid an aspen grove with broad views of Mt. Crested Butte, the East River Valley and the entire Elk Mountain horizon, this breathtaking 4 bedroom, 4 bath mountain retreat offers the perfect balance of privacy, elegance and adventure close to Crested Butte.

The mountain lodge design is enriched by the grand dry stacked stone fireplace in the great room and immense chimney cap constructed by master mason Dave Dennis with stone hand- picked by the family from a quarry in Arkansas. The brawny timber frame home is built with richly looking antique long leaf pine floors, artisan doors and woodwork reclaimed and crafted with material from the historic Murphy Street Church in Taylor, Texas. This elegant 4,016 sq. ft. residence features an impressive great room with a tall cathedral ceiling providing a warm patina from the heavy timbers and cedar planks. Two family gathering areas, a gourmet cookâ??s kitchen with double wall ovens, warming oven, built-in 48â?cooktop, stainless appliances and granite counters, a wine cellar for several hundred bottles, two spacious offces, primary ensuite bedroom with private covered balcony and inspiring views to the mountain horizon, a second king ensuite bedroom and 2 guest bedrooms, 2 more full baths, and an impressive ironwood constructed entertaining deck containing a new hot tub and an adjoining firepit sundeck all contribute to the enjoyment for family and friends.
