Alpine Mountain Ranch & Club Showcases $7.9 Million ‘Vestige’ Home

Alpine Mountain Ranch & Club in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, has unveiled its latest, and perhaps most significant custom market home, the “Vestige” residence. Named for the magnificent vistas of the nearby Flat Tops Wilderness, this showcase property highlights modern living in an exquisite mountain-contemporary design. Featuring clean modern lines with a touch of rustic inspiration, this one-of-a-kind residence features 5,353 finished square feet with four bedrooms, six bathrooms, and an oversized three-car garage. Slated to be completed in May 2023, the Vestige residence is listed for $7.9 million. 

The completion of the Vestige residence will signify the sixth and final speculative luxury home Alpine Mountain Ranch & Club has delivered to the Steamboat Springs real estate market since 2019. Each of the homes have sold at record prices, spurring momentum that resulted in an unprecedented 38 sales totaling $98M in the development over the past three years.

Each of the market homes was constructed by Alpine Master Builders, which is Alpine Mountain Ranch’s affiliated in-house design-build firm. The market demand for each of these recently-completed luxury homes is a testament to the leading-edge mountain-contemporary design Alpine Mountain Builders and its partner architects have brought to the Steamboat Springs community. 

The Vestige residence, perched on five-acres within the 1,200-acre Alpine Mountain Ranch & Club, features dramatic views across the Yampa Valley, out to the striking peaks of Flat Tops Wilderness with the Catamount golf course fairways in foreground. The south-facing home offers end of the road privacy and direct access to a community golf cart path that leads to Catamount.

The distinctive mountain-contemporary residence was designed by Vertical Arts, a renowned Steamboat Springs architectural and design firm. With oversized window walls and an expansive wraparound deck, Vestige was designed to take full advantage of the awe-inspiring views and bring the outdoors inside.

“Through its floor-to-ceiling windows and outside from the numerous decks and patios, residents will become intimately familiar with the many forms of light that reflect off both the Yampa Valley floor below and Flat Tops in the distance,” said Suzanne Schlicht, Senior Vice President and Director of Sales at Alpine Mountain Ranch & Club.

The dramatic entry to this modern concept open floorplan is through a contemporary flat roof entry with recessed clear story glass towering above the nine-foot glass entry door. The main floor hosts the primary bedroom suite with an adjacent office and private deck. The home boasts thoughtfully selected exquisite finishes. Radiant heat and air conditioning will keep residents comfortable as they take in dramatic southern and western exposure of this bright home. The chef’s kitchen is outfitted with Wolf/Subzero appliances and an Optvue pass-through window from the kitchen to deck. Marvin Ultimate multi-slide stacking doors provide open access from the great room to the 800-square-foot deck, featuring an outdoor stone-wrapped gas fireplace and outdoor kitchen. 

The lower level of the home is reached by descending an oversized staircase that features modern wire mesh panels. The walk-out level features three ensuite bedrooms, and an additional full bathroom with an exterior entrance designed to serve a future outdoor spa area. The lower-level living room is perfect for entertaining with a walk-behind wet bar outfitted with ice maker, refrigerated beverage center, and dishwasher drawer accented with Mountain Ledge Sandstone. A 300-square-foot flexible space can accommodate a movie room and 5th bedroom or an expansive workout/spa wing.  

Alpine Mountain Ranch & Club has experienced unprecedented sales volume over the last several years resulting in 43 of the community’s 63 total homesites now being sold. The community is on the fast track for buildout with 12 currently completed homes, six homes to be completed in 2023, and ten more to be completed in 2024.

Alpine Mountain Ranch owners appreciate the community’s proximity to downtown Steamboat, the privacy of the 5-acre homesites, enjoyment of 900-acres of open space, and ample amenities including private fly-fishing waters, an equestrian program, cross-country skiing, and snowshoe trails. Not to mention, the appeal of the $200M+ in improvements and expansion underway as part of Steamboat Ski Resort’s Full Steam Ahead program.

Neighboring the Vestige residence are three remaining Premium Golf Homesites offering direct cart-path access to neighboring Catamount Golf Club. Other available homesites at Alpine Mountain Ranch & Club include the recently released Upland Preserve featuring an extraordinary collection of 13 homesites that are accessed through a set of distinguished entry markers. There are also three remaining Premium Club Homesites that offer easy, walking access to community amenities including Lonecast Lake, Owners’ Lodge, and Barn.
