A rare Colorado legacy estate, built with substance. Set on nearly 39 private acres within Ten Mile Creek Estates--Grand County's rare gated, 18-lot enclave of 35-plus-acre tracts--297 Sky View occupies a commanding ridgeline position with extraordinary privacy, quiet, and sweeping unobstructed views. From the main home, the landscape unfolds south toward Byers Peak, west across the valley and its sunsets, and north toward the Continental Divide. This is the kind of setting that feels truly removed, yet is designed for comfortable, year-round living and gathering.
Custom built with exceptional care, the home was designed around authentic materials and enduring craftsmanship rather than passing trends. Massive exposed structural timbers, tongue-and-groove ceilings, extensive natural stonework, rich alder cabinetry, hardwood floors, and tailored millwork create a sense of permanence throughout. Six-panel interior doors, substantial wood trim, and thoughtfully detailed built-ins reinforce the home's custom character at every turn. Exterior doors are equipped with lift-handle, multi-point locking hardware that engages locking pins for a solid, secure close--a detail that speaks to the quality of the original build.
South-facing walls of wraparound windows capture abundant natural light and the warmth of the winter sun while framing the mountain panorama from the great room, dining area, kitchen, and primary suite. The great room is anchored by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and opens naturally to the billiards area, dining space, and chef's kitchen--an inviting layout for both daily life and large family gatherings.
The kitchen combines high-end function with handcrafted warmth: Viking appliances, double ovens, a walk-in pantry, generous granite work surfaces, an oversized island, and custom alder cabinetry. Handmade Saltillo tile adds character and history, including authentic animal-imprint "protector tiles," traditionally regarded as symbols of good luck and protection for a home. The adjacent covered deck includes a natural-gas grill connection, eliminating the need for propane tanks and making outdoor entertaining effortless.
The main-level primary suite offers fireplace warmth, a spa-inspired bath, and direct deck access. Throughout the home, tiled showers, quality bath finishes, dual-sink vanities, and carefully planned guest spaces make hosting comfortable rather than merely possible. The walk-out lower level expands the home into a true recreation and wellness retreat, with a generous family room, wet bar, dedicated office, billiards area, mirrored home gym, cedar sauna, and private guest accommodations.
The detached garage and bunkhouse are far more than auxiliary space. Four heated garage bays are divided between the attached two-car garage and an oversized detached two-car garage. Both garages were designed for real mountain use, including drains beneath each vehicle bay to direct melting snow and water away rather than allowing it to collect on the garage floor. The detached garage also includes a utility sink and water supply for gear, projects, and cleanup.
Above it, the finished bunkhouse functions as a genuine guest retreat for visiting families: four bunk beds, vaulted ceilings, an expansive living area, bathroom with shower, and a mini-fridge and coffee bar. It is an exceptional space for grandchildren, friends, multigenerational gatherings, or extended mountain weekends.
Outside, the property delivers a complete private recreation environment: pickleball court, putting green, hot tub, fire pit, horseshoes, bocce, pergola-covered entertaining area, multiple decks and patios, and wide-open mountain views in every direction. A drip-irrigation system serves the landscaped areas surrounding both the main house and bunkhouse--an uncommon and valuable feature in Grand County's high-country climate.
Practical infrastructure matches the quality of the home itself. A natural-gas backup generator supplied by the property's underground Xcel gas service offers meaningful resilience during outages and precautionary utility shutoffs. An integrated security system and central vacuum system add everyday convenience, peace of mind, and another indication of the home's highly considered original construction.
297 Sky View is more than a mountain retreat. It is a custom-built, highly considered estate where the visible craftsmanship is matched by the less visible details that matter most over time--privacy, durability, comfort, security, and a setting made for generations of family memories.
