Tucked away in a peaceful aspen forest and surrounded by beautifully designed landscaping, this meticulously maintained mountain retreat offers the perfect blend of privacy, luxury, and natural beauty. With peek-a-boo views of Whetstone Mountain, Gibson's Ridge, and Mt. CB, and a serene setting in the coveted Skyland golf course community, this home is a true sanctuary in the mountains. Designed by Dan Murphy and crafted by renowned local builders Shipp & Spear, the home showcases timeless mountain architecture and exceptional attention to detail throughout. Inside, warm oak hardwood floors, exposed wood beams, and natural materials echo the surrounding landscape, creating a welcoming and refined atmosphere. The open-concept main living area is perfect for gathering and entertaining, centered around a striking stone wood-burning fireplace. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s delight, featuring granite countertops, high-end appliances, and custom cabinetry- all seamlessly connected to the dining and living areas for effortless flow and comfort. The well thought-out floor plan includes four spacious bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom. The main-level primary suite offers warmth and comfort with a fireplace, forested views, and a luxurious ensuite bath, while a second upstairs primary suite adds flexibility for guests or family. Two additional guest bedrooms and baths provide privacy and comfort for visitors. A dedicated office is the perfect place to work remotely or plan your daily adventures, and a cozy second living area upstairs offers additional space to relax and watch a movie or the game! On the lower level, you'll find a small bonus space currently used as a game room- ideal for downtime or creative projects. Additional highlights include in-floor radiant heat, a steam shower, and a private outdoor hot tub set among the trees- perfect for unwinding after a day of hiking, biking or skiing. And the home comes mostly furnished, making it easy to move right in and start enjoying the good life! Residents of the Skyland community enjoy direct access to scenic recreational trails, private fishing rights at Grant Lake and the Slate River, and close proximity to both the historic Town of Crested Butte and the world-class ski area. Blending refined mountain living with tranquil natural surroundings, this exceptional home offers a rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully crafted retreat—where every detail has been carefully considered, and the best of the Crested Butte lifestyle is right outside your door.
