Perched on a steep hillside in Silverthorne, this 3,500-square-foot home was designed to rise with purpose, capturing unobstructed views of Buffalo Mountain, the Gore Range, and the lake beyond. The traditional gable-and-shed form is elevated with mountain modern detailing: a clean, single-tone exterior of vertical wood siding and stone grounds the home in its rugged alpine setting. A split-level entry creates a dramatic arrival, guiding visitors past expansive windows and into open living spaces bathed in light. With the main level positioned high on the slope, the home maximizes its vantage point while offering comfort, connection, and carefully layered functionality.
Purposeful space planning ensures that every square foot serves a function. The lower level hosts a two-car garage, workshop, office, and recreation room, while the main level offers two ensuite bedrooms and fluid communal spaces for gathering and rest.
Two distinct patios extend the living space outdoors, one with a fireplace and sweeping Gore Range vistas, the other offering privacy among the trees. The entire home was shaped to embrace its setting, creating a seamless connection between architecture and landscape that invites both comfort and immersion in the surrounding environment.
