The great room draws your attention to the mountains through a dramatic wall of windows beneath soaring cathedral ceilings. Window seating creates an inviting place to read or take in the scenery, while a striking stone fireplace brings warmth and character to the space. The adjoining kitchen features natural wood cabinetry and breakfast bar seating, with an open layout connecting the cooking, dining, and gathering areas.
