Set on 2.65 acres with more than 400 feet of Animas River frontage, this extraordinary gated estate pairs an irreplaceable riverfront setting with exceptional custom architecture and craftsmanship. Completed in 2023, the residence was conceived as an inspired marriage of Colorado lodge architecture, Old World Tuscany, and contemporary luxury, creating a home that feels both timeless and entirely original. The approximately 4,100 square foot main residence offers three bedrooms, three-and-three-quarter baths, a private office, and workout/flex room. Timber framing, river-rock masonry, reclaimed Kentucky barnwood flooring, brick, copper, and handcrafted fixtures from Tuscany establish a rich material palette. Barrel-vaulted brick ceilings and distinctive copper accents add artistry throughout, while five wood-burning and gas fireplaces bring warmth and atmosphere. At its heart, the kitchen pairs extensive stone surfaces and custom cabinetry with a statement copper range hood, brick and river-rock detailing, a Viking range, and oversized gathering island. It opens naturally to the great room, where soaring timber ceilings, expansive windows, and a substantial stone fireplace create an inviting setting connected to the surrounding landscape. The primary suite is a private retreat with vaulted ceilings, reclaimed wood flooring, expansive windows, and a river-rock fireplace. Its spa-inspired bath centers around a jetted soaking tub beneath a barrel-vaulted brick ceiling and its own fireplace, complemented by natural stone, an oversized walk-in shower, dual vanity, and floor safes within both primary closets. Two guest suites each offer a private en-suite bath with jetted soaking tub, separate glass shower, and stone finishes. A private office with antique library ladder and custom Baker's Bridge-inspired powder room with waterfall element further reflect the home's individuality. Outdoor living is equally compelling. A covered river-view deck functions as an open-air living room, anchored by a river-rock fireplace and overlooking the Animas River and surrounding canyon. Infrared heaters extend the seasons, while two landscaped water features, an outdoor fire pit, and a private Zen-inspired retreat enhance the grounds. Beyond, more than 400 feet of river frontage, water rights, dramatic rock formations, and clear mountain water create a captivating natural sanctuary, with morning light illuminating the canyon and Great Unconformity in a spectacular sunrise display.
