SPRING IN THE MOUNTAINS ALREADY?
|
|
If it isn’t going to snow, it might as well shine. Spring is here — albeit prematurely — and the winds are blowing, the clouds are unpredictable, and ski area conditions, on warm days, are slushy. With the resurgence into the warmer outdoors comes, aptly, a free concert series outdoors in Mountain Village. |

| CANYON POINT SALE: A SIGN OF TELLURIDE’S EVER-APPEALING TIMES |
Defining Gray Head’s Canyon Point residence evokes words like spacious, sophisticated, scenic, spectacular. It also defines Telluride’s and Gray Head’s continued allure to lifestyle enhancement.
One of the Telluride region’s finest homes located at Gray Head, one of Telluride’s finest communities, was recently purchased.

|
The allure? The six-bedroom, seven and one-half bath residence is bathed in Gray Head’s unmatched views and amenities like an equestrian center, 16 miles of wilderness trails, ice skating, fly-fishing and tennis while complimented by San Juan Mountain vistas.
Canyon Point is surrounded by 885 acres of Gray Head wilderness and sits on a 35-acre parcel perched above the San Miguel River canyon granting mountain solitude while still located just a short drive from the town of Telluride, making the residence both private and convenient.
Canyon Point garnered high marks from E-Star Colorado and the Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star Homes Program by meeting green requirements like efficiently sealed ductwork and construction, bamboo cabinetry, passive and active solar elements, double and triple glazed windows, and radiant heat flooring.
The Canyon Point property exemplifies unfaltering allure of the Gray Head Telluride lifestyle, its landscapes and residences. Steve Catsman and his team remain steadfast in their continued belief that investment in lifestyle will always be Telluride’s compelling allure even during these uncertain times.

RANCH LIVING IN TELLURIDE’S TROPICS |
It is called the banana belt of Telluride, the valley etched out by the San Miguel River where summer lasts longer and spring comes sooner. Located in this Down Valley refuge is the Placer Mine Ranch, a 5.5-acre ranch surrounded in pine, fir and aspen forest in the midst of red rock canyon walls. A seasonal stream and waterfall rolling through the property create a real retreat to solitude and space.

The home is a spacious 5,500 square feet with three bedrooms and three and one-half baths where intricate, unique finishes like custom alder cabinets with handcrafted aspen leaf etchings are found throughout.
The Placer Mine Ranch hosts other distinctive features from the kitchen to the roomy outdoor patio. White oak floors make up the great room that was designed to accommodate a grand piano. Blue Bahia granite countertops make up the kitchen space and compliment the six-burner Thermador range, Sub-Zero refrigerator and Fisher Paykel dish drawers. Outside, the redwood hot tub and fire pit are accessed via stone walkways and accented by stained and stamped concrete patios with heated snowmelt systems and ringed in sandstone retaining walls. For the green thumb, a greenhouse is equipped with a GeneralAire humidifier for nearly year-round growing in the Down Valley tropics. The entire acreage is irrigated with sprinklers and drip zones.
And while the Placer Mine Ranch boasts Down Valley seclusion, the entertaining bustle and mountain lifestyle of Telluride is just 12 miles away.

PROSPECT CREEK WELCOMES NEWEST TOWNHOME |
|
If you are prospecting for a townhome in the Telluride region, Steve Catsman and team are the source. Townhomes on the Creek, a collection of classic mountain townhomes running alongside Prospect Creek, recently welcomed its fifteenth residence. |

The newest addition to Townhomes on the Creek
|
The townhomes were designed with elegance in mind, mimicking the natural beauty of their surrounding environment and offering a level of exquisite finishes unmatched in Mountain Village. Aspen and fir forest enclose the stone and log-constructed buildings and views of the San Joaquin Ridge dominate the skyline. Prospect Creek flows year round and a private bridge provides convenient access to the ski runs abutting the creek. A higher access is offered via the Crosslift, a private gondola that links residents to the gondola, the towns of Mountain Village and Telluride.
Each three- and four-bedroom townhome offers vast views via extensive windows and multiple private balconies. Unique, finely crafted interiors define the mountain contemporary style and include walnut wood floors, plaster walls, hand-forged steel railings, custom alder cabinets, soapstone countertops, backsplash and sinks — just a few of Townhomes on the Creek’s finest touches.
