Classic log at Two Cabins

On a brilliant autumn day, with the sky so blue it almost hurt my eyes, I visited the full log home at 520 Two Cabins Drive. This new residence sits in the Three Peaks neighborhood near The Raven Golf Course in Silverthorne. Offered at $1,699,900, this lovely home enjoys five bedrooms, five and a half baths, and a lovely setting with excellent sun and a gentle stream on the north side of the property.

The covered front porch leads to the main entry door and directly into a stone foyer. To the right is a coat closet, while to the left is a powder room with a glass vessel sink. The kitchen lies to the left with slab granite countertops in buffs and soft grays. Countertops are in medium tones of alder. The appliances include a Bosch dishwasher, five burner Thermador cooktop, Kitchen Aid refrigerator, and a double wall oven with microwave and convection components. A Kohler sink is positioned under the window and a nearby prep sink adds convenience. A private deck off the kitchen is the perfect spot for a grill.

The Great room adjoins the space, centered by a soaring moss rock fireplace with raised slab hearth and mantle. It reaches the cathedral ceiling, drawing attention to the massive peeled log beams which make a definite mountain statement. Surrounding windows let in the views which are spectacular in every season. French doors open onto a wraparound deck with excellent sun exposure.

A stairway comprised of half round peeled logs leads up to a loft area with spectacular views. To the left is the first of the bedrooms with a nearby bath trimmed in butterscotch toned tile. The master suite is also on this level, with its own fireplace and a sitting area. The master bath spotlights a clawfoot tub, double sinks, a steam shower, and a custom closet system.

Carpeted stairs down from the main level pause first at the entrance to the two car garage and a laundry with a utility sink and GE Profile washer and dryer. The remaining few stairs lead into a family room with a wet bar. Granite countertops are a beautiful amenity, along with a GE Monogram refrigerator and wine cooler. A third fireplace is the focal point of the space which is large enough for games or a pool table. The doors here lead out to the patio level.

To the right is another bedroom with a walk in closet and a jack and Jill bath shared with the family room. Two additional bedroom suites reside on this level, each with a tiled bath.

Throughout the home, careful craftsmanship is married with classic finishes and a warm, welcoming palette of neutral colors. The home is positioned to take advantage of its private setting and the stream running alongside. Although the golf course is close by and the highway is just up the road, there is a sense of peacefulness. This lovely log home is ready for you and all of your mountain memories.
