You are finally packing for your annual summer visit, or winter ski trip to your second home in Summit County, Colorado. You are ready for your long-awaited getaway, and you can’t wait to escape for some mountain magic! Once you arrive, are you stepping into a gorgeous, modern mountain retreat? Or, are you stepping back in time to an outdated 1980s – 2000s era home that multiple owners have furnished over the past many decades?
We commonly walk into gorgeous homes with expansive views of the Gore Range, Baldy Peak, Imperial, or the entire valley from the top of Wildernest, only to find a home stuck in a time warp. Glossy oak trim paired with builder-grade oak cabinets are a common sight to behold. Outdated tiger’s-eye granite countertops paired with lackluster ceramic backsplashes, and don’t even get us started on the polished brass everywhere!
Our clients increasingly want to step into their second homes feeling a renewed sense of style without losing that Western mountain charm. That’s where we come in. We want you to be swept off your feet the next time you stay.
What is ‘Mountain Modern,’ and why is it only NOW making its way to Summit County, Colorado?
The mountain modern interior design aesthetic is defined by clean lines and the use of materials like glass and steel, but with touches of natural warmth (think wood and stone) to maintain that mountain character. To learn more about this aesthetic, read our deep dive into the style HERE!
With new luxury developments like Kindred Resort at Keystone, moutnain experience clubs such as gravity haus, and new custom homes in Breckenridge, we are seeing more and more of the style that you might have previously attributed to Aspen, Park City, or even the modern resorts in the Alps. The style still feels like a mountain escape but leaves the log cabin look where it belongs – in the past!
It’s not all about looks. With new smart home technology and innovative efficiency, your newly updated Colorado mountain getaway can be easily maintained and monitored from afar. The goal is to make your second or third home more functional too. Think water leak detection with the ability to shut off your main water valve from anywhere in the world. Or automated window treatments to keep the harsh sun from fading your new furnishings. This is about the convenience of modern luxury living!or
Let’s face it – Having a home in Summit County takes a lot of work.
Most of the homes sold in Summit County are sold furnished with the previous owners tastes. Often there is an accumulation of furniture from multiple previous owners and these items can clash. When you are visiting for pleasure, the last thing you want to do with your time is figure out where to discard the existing furniture, or how to begin with arranging deliveries to such a remote location.
Many clients come to us looking for help after years of dreaming about how much better their vacation home can be. They have put it off so long because they need someone they can trust to be on the ground for them in Summit County.
You may also want to ensure your investment in new furnishings is long-lasting. You dream of quality, comfortable spaces that don’t require constant upkeep or management. The modern mountain aesthetic is a staple in so many other mountain retreats around the globe, proving it to be a timeless upgrade that you and your family will enjoy for decades to come.
