Hillside Haven

Tucked into a prominent hillside with cross valley views, this fresh start reimagines the possibilities of an idyllic lot. The project scraped the existing traditional home, replacing it with a modern rendition of the perfect mountain home. Designed for a family deeply rooted in the Vail Valley, the home balances modern upgrades with the comfort of familiarity. Clean lines, striking forms, and a palette of cedar siding, stone, and black metal breathe contemporary life into the residence, while expansive decks and operable glass invite the alpine setting inside. The result is a home that feels entirely modern yet, still deeply connected to its place and history.

Designed for Living

Every decision in the remodel was made with daily life in mind—spaces that flow easily for family gatherings, thoughtful details that frame mountain views, and materials chosen for durability as much as beauty. It’s a home that honors its roots while offering a refreshed, modern way of living in the Vail Valley.
