Crestone

Home Information

Welcome to the Crestone, a mid-century modern masterpiece. The elegant simplicity of this timeless structure is defined by its simple, yet impressive design. Enter the Crestone and experience a home of uncluttered lines, defined in part by the use of 12-foot ceilings, and the expansive 12-foot sliding glass doors allow the outdoors inside. Your friends and family will love the unobstructed views of everyone’s favorite “14-er.” The great room’s timeless sleek linear fireplace suggests friends and family will create warm memories inside. On the home’s private deck, you will find a second cozy fireplace with floor-to-ceiling stone. The kitchen will please the chef in the family with its walk-in pantry, prep kitchen space, upgraded appliances and a large island. The master suite is spacious and inviting. The spa-like bath features a free-standing soaking tub and a huge shower. Downstairs includes a rec room with fireplace, open media room, fantastic wet bar with wine room and storage with two additional spacious bedrooms. This mid-century modern interpretation, featuring hints of Wright’s influences in architecture, reflects his words: “If you invest in beauty, it will stay with you all the days of your life.”

We like to describe the style of the Crestone as “New Century Modern.” The asymmetrical exterior elevation takes its cues from mid century, but with a fresh style - current and fitting for the neighborhood, as well as its Colorado setting. Kim Blehm (KB Designs) selected exterior finishes that would connect to the interior. Bold, dark siding paired with light stucco and stone provides warmth. Inside, she chose tasteful, modern finishes that are comfortable and timeless. Blehm’s minimalist color scheme of neutrals, with touches of eucalyptus green and soft golds, creates an inviting palette that complements the home and gorgeous views, rather than distracting from it. The home is light and bright, with bold, black lighting and accents. Abundant natural light and earthy materials give balance to the modern elements. Fabric and wallpaper textures offset the sleek, reflective surfaces of glass and metal. It’s modern and striking, yet unassuming and welcoming.
