the family lodge of borders road — where everyone comes home
some homes hold a family. this one holds generations.
behind the private gates of beaver creek, along one of its most prestigious roads, stands a residence of a kind rarely built anymore — true timber-frame craftsmanship, raised beam by beam, with soaring vaulted ceilings that make even a full house feel like it can breathe. seven bedrooms. two family rooms. a table for everyone. this is the home where holidays happen — where the grandkids claim their rooms, where ski boots line the mudroom, where nobody leaves early because there′s nowhere else they′d rather be. and for all its scale, it lives quietly: tucked among the trees, private and serene, with indoor and outdoor spaces flowing into one another the way mountain life should.
the days here write themselves. morning light through the timbers as the chef′s kitchen fills with the smell of breakfast before first chair — then beaver creek′s legendary grooming awaits: mccoy park for the begin ners, grouse mountain for the ones who never stopped chasing steeps, and a mountain of options in between. then home again, fireside. five fireplaces mean there′s always a warm corner for a quiet conversation. evenings unfold downstairs: a film in the private theatre, a bottle chosen from a 5,000-bottle wine cellar that stops guests mid-sentence, an hour in the cigar lounge while family and friends are lost in the mountain views. and outside, the sound of water cascading from two ponds above into the private spa beneath the stars — the last stop of another incredible day.
a private office keeps working life at hand when it must be, and an elevator connects every level with ease — a home designed for every generation, from the youngest to the ones who built the family in the first place.
and all of it lives inside beaver creek: world-class skiing steps away, ice skating in the village, golf and tennis in the summer, hiking and fly-fishing out the door, the vilar performing arts center, and the quiet security of the resort′s private gates around it all.
