Holidays at the Highlands




ENLARGE
The lovely residence at 129 Dyer Trail enjoys a quiet location, proximity to the downtown core, and a spectacular view of the changing seasons looking directly at the Breckenridge Ski Resort. The five bedroom, six and a half bath home is offered at $2,475,000 for the 7,225 square feet of living space. Additionally, there is a 2.17 acre lot, a separate apartment and an oversized three car garage included.

The home sits well back from the street at the turn of the road. Double doors open into a stone foyer with coat closet on the right. The space opens immediately into an expansive living area that is the perfect spot for a piano or music area. To the left, the Great Room enjoys wide random-planked wood floors and spectacular views to the west. Doors lead out from both spaces to the broad sunny deck. Substantial windows bring the outside in, while a stone fireplace centers the space.

To the left, the dining area is open to the living area and the kitchen. The kitchen features wood cabinets in a warm deep honey finish and slab granite countertops in warm neutrals. The island boasts a five burner Dacor cooktop. Other appliances include a Sub Zero refrigerator, double Dacor wall convection ovens, and two Bosch dishwashers. A wine room adjoins the kitchen, with wood racks and a built in temperature system.

Just off the living area is a “hearth room” with another fireplace and sunny windows- just the spot to curl up with a book. The mudroom adjoins the kitchen, with tile floors and good access to the garage, the laundry, and a powder room. The apartment entrance is accessed from the far side of the garage. It has a full kitchen, tiled bath and comfortable living area and bedroom.

To the right of this level is the main floor master with towering ceilings and another fireplace. Doors lead out to the deck and the view. The master bath enjoys a travertine-encased shower, jetted tub and double sinks set in slab granite in a rich cocoa. The floor is tumbled travertine in ivory and cocoa. An adjoining office also has good access to the front hall and could easily be a library, workout area, or additional sleeping space.

Stairs up lead to the second master suite with a two level bedroom, another tiled bath in caramel tones, and a walk in closet. An adjoining loft provides a spot for quiet contemplation.

Stairs down from the main level lead into the family room with pool table, wet bar and doors leading out to a beautiful stone patio, firepit and spa. This is the perfect spot to enjoy the changing seasons with southwestern exposure, good sun, and mountain views. The remaining bedrooms are on this floor. A media room features levels for better viewing with a mix of reclining leather chairs, sofas and a bar area with granite countertop seating.

The home itself is the perfect spot for a large gathering. Thoughtful details and beautiful craftsmanship mark the home. This lovely residence is the perfect spot to usher in the holidays in the Rocky Mountains.
