the openness of the space, flow and
connectivity of the rooms.
On the other side of the support beams,
from the main living area, is the home’s
kitchen. It’s modern in every respect,
including a Sub Zero refrigerator, dual
Bosch dishwashers and a Wolf stove.
The kitchen is warm and inviting. The
hues of red, apricot and brown are
subtly combined in the swirl of the
marble countertops and are complemented by hammered copper sinks and
auburn cabinetry donned with satin
nickel hardware. The owners enjoy cooking and entertaining family and friends.
The efficient layout and sufficiently

large size of the kitchen offers plenty of
room for guests, most of whom inevitably wind up in the kitchen!
The home’s dining areas are convenient
to the kitchen. In fact, what separates
the main dining and kitchen area is a
family friendly countertop of textured
grey slate complete with pull-up red
leather bar stools. The bar/counter is
the default eating area for kids and
adults alike. The main dining area
is defined by the stone fireplace and
hearth on one wall and another made
of wood framed windows and doors
to the outside. The view through the
windows is breathtaking.
This area is casually designed with
comfort in mind but can be formal if
need be. The large wooden trestle table
easily accommodates the 12 dining
chairs that are upholstered in espresso
linen. The double ceiling height and the
wall of windows in the dining room
are a natural source of light, adding to
the home’s openness. In the summer,
the doors open to a terrace occupied
by comfortable lounge seating. This
creates more living space and it helps
tie together the inside and outside. The
focal point of this room is the textured
acrylic oil painting by J.D. Miller that
hangs above the fireplace. It is a lovely
painting depicting fiery aspen trees.
