Telluride Down Valley Retreat

This project has a very special setting up on a sweet building site, nestled in the red rocks, San Miguel River flowing below, down valley from Historic Telluride, CO. This area (referred to as the banana belt in Telluride), just 20 minutes away, has a micro-climate, milder than the harsher mountain conditions in Telluride and the ski area. The owners were pulled to this property after living up at nearly 10,000 ft. above sea level in a little mining community for over a decade.

The owners wanted a home that maximized an indoor/outdoor lifestyle built with passive house principles, using sustainable materials and focused on a ‘healthy home’.

Their requirements were approx. 2,500 SF of conditioned space including 3 bedrooms and 3 baths.

Construction complete – photos coming soon.
