Skyland Subdivision on the Crested Butte Country Club Golf Course.Stand -Out Features:
Finely detailed craftsmanship of the internal truss system using reclaimed heart pine beams from a textile mill. The timbers were hand hewn. The cabinets, bookshelves and bench seats were built in. This was a unique property because of its wetland location and accompanying ecosystem of sedges, wet grasses, foxes, coyotes, mink, deer, fowl and other wetland species. The retaining wall adjacent to the wetland has a unique artistic design and adds to the character of the home.Unique Challenges:
The wetland location required additional approvals with the county and the federal government, such as a wetland delineation and accompanying plans and permits. The retaining wall, while beautiful, was not originally anticipated, but was required as a wetland buffer.Key Professionals:
