Property Description
A quick walk just beyond the Lodge at Vail in Vail Village, this luxurious European-inspired chalet is quietly tucked into the mountainside above the town offering privacy and charmingly authentic alpine living. The home provides easy access to both Vail Village and Lionshead Village amenities with renowned skiing/riding, celebrated fine dining, exclusive boutique shopping, the Gore Creek bike path, and more hiking trails than imaginable. The stately great room features vaulted ceilings with soaring windows stacked atop a wall of glass French doors that open to a tranquil outdoor deck extending the entire length of the home's north side while showcasing dramatic views of the forest surround. Massive hand-hewn beams and a grand natural stone, double-sided wood-burning fireplace that can be enjoyed simultaneously by both the living and dining areas ensure a timeless sophisticated ambiance. The great room's west end opens to a warm, inviting library/study with build-in bookshelves and distinguished wooden shudders allowing dappled light to warm the rich wood and adjoining home office. A generous kitchen, adjacent to the dining area, features two levels of stacked windows that fill the vaulted ceilings with light, a custom cabinet-faced refrigerator, tasteful stone counters with peninsula seating, and connects with the 2-car garage. The primary bedroom suite commands the upper level, featuring a private east-facing deck to relax and enjoy the mature wooded alpine scenery, and two thoughtfully separate washrooms. The home's lower level is comprised of a family/rec room with gas fireplace and access to the extensive forest-level deck. Three ensuite bedrooms each offer individual access to the lower-level deck, surrounding woodlands, and outdoor hot tub. A secluded stone foot path leads through the conifer forest up the east side of this elegant home that packs in every possible accommodation within a thoughtful layout. 355Forest.com/?mls
