Where Elegance Meets Comfort:
The main house spans three levels and over 11,000 square feet, with 9 beautifully appointed bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. From the moment you walk in, you're enveloped in natural light, upscale finishes, and warmth. The chef’s kitchen invites conversation around the island, while the adjacent sunroom makes the perfect perch for morning coffee overlooking the pool.
The formal dining room—with floor-to-ceiling windows framing the view—offers a show-stopping setting for shared meals and celebrations. Cozy lounges flank the space: one a moody bourbon room for late-night conversations, the other a billiards room for friendly competition.

Something for Everyone, Every Generation:
From grandparents to toddlers, every guest has something to enjoy. The upper level features a whimsical kids’ club complete with a rock wall and games, while the primary bedroom is a luxurious sanctuary with its own balcony, wet bar, 6-person beauty station, sunroom, and en suite bath. Two additional bedrooms offer en suite baths and serene views.
The main level offers one large bedroom with an en suite bath.
The bottom level transforms into a haven of fun: arcade games, karaoke lounge, living room, three bedrooms and three full bathrooms.
An attached two-bedroom, two full bath in-law suite provides quiet workspace, panoramic views, and full privacy.

Outdoor Living, Elevated:
Step outside onto a vast deck crafted for gathering, unwinding, and celebrating. You'll find:

• A custom sunken wood-burning fire pit
• Two sunken hot tubs under the stars
• A stargazing dome for clear mountain nights
• And a former helipad turned turfed lounge zone with daybeds and yard games

In the backyard there is:

• A shaded kids’ playground nestled in the trees
• Grilling station and bar top seating overlooking a peaceful swimming pool

Along the side of the house, an outdoor bar with barn-style windows makes the perfect space for a bartender to serve your group as you toast the sunset.

Your Own Private Resort:
Across the estate lies your own private sports and entertainment complex. A custom-designed 9-hole turf short course offers a unique golfing experience with three greens with six pin locations per green, three tee boxes, and a custom scoreboard for friendly tournaments.

• Golf simulator
• Micro bowling alley
• Two-person basketball shooter game
• Skeeball, arcade games, poker table, shuffleboard, foosball and more
