Built by Faust Builders, builders respected for excellence in Crested Butte, this three story, five bedroom, four and a half bath home is situated on the east side of Crested Butte on protected open space with fantastic views. The property is located in a quiet and uncluttered neighborhood amid newer homes of distinction. The open floorplan with a cook's gourmet kitchen is appointed with Thermador appliances, a Krause farmhouse sink, leathered granite counters along with stylish, handcrafted floating wood shelves with inlaid iron strapping.

Plank and chink wall finish, vaulted cathedral ceilings supported with antique timber trusses and iron strapping and antique hardwood floors complete the imaginative interior.
